Offset UV printing technology is the rapid development
     From the beginning of 2000, UV printing for the promotion of sales of printed materials, has played an increasingly important role to offset those traditional competitors in the market unmatched. UV printing of the world demand rising. The U.S. market is in the development of thunder Langjian on.
In the United States, in the late 1990s, UV offset printing technology in the field on the widely used, people will be used for special UV polishing process of printing, to achieve extraordinary, breaking the traditional design. For example, labels, the use of UV, a high sales growth. Today, many industries are trying to rely on brands to establish their position in the market, jumped out of cheap products and the vicious circle of price war.
Now Heidelberg presses, a majority of UV models, the ratio continues to increase. According to European equipment manufacturers are expected: UV models annual growth rate will reach 7%, UV drying devices annual growth rate of 10%, UV inks and Varnish of the fastest growing, will reach 14 percent. Hybrid polishing process also will benefit. From the mid-1990s, Heidelberg has been on the market in the United States installed more than 740 Taiwan application hybrid polishing process printing presses. When enterprises have more than enough UV printing orders, the choice of carrying UV polishing unit printing press is a wise move.
The past, people considered harmful UV printing environment and health, and now, those concerns have evaporated. In the printing and paper industry with the German insurance and protection agencies in the process of cooperation, Heidelberg has developed the staff and the environment with a high degree of safety and security features of the UV packaging. Varnish and ink on the development of tension is carried out. The UV ink no longer contain solvents, Quchu the volatile and hazardous substances damage to the environment. Today, the application of UV as the traditional offset printing, like security. No longer need dusting on the production environment and staff, are a good thing, printing supplies have reduced expenditures.
Hybrid say on the UV light and glazing techniques in the U.S. market 1995 drupa exhibition has just ended, Heidelberg Exhibition Center in Chicago on the installation of a Subaru CD102-6  LYL Offset, with other providers and users work together, set out to develop on-line production and explore the potential of the surface finishing, Such as traditional offset printing ink, water-based UV light and polishing on the application.
The study's results as mixed-ink (that is, in the traditional offset printing ink mixed with 25 percent of UV inks) the development and use laid the foundation. Heidelberg in a Subaru CD102 on the printing press launched a series of tests, the aircraft in the vicinity of paper to the allocation of part of the UV drying system. 1997, Heidelberg will be the integration of new technology and printing presses, displayed a special structure of the Subaru six-color offset press CD102, the plane carrying a polishing unit, two drying units (infrared dry and hot air Dry) and a UV polishing unit. UV lights have more than one access point could therefore be easily adjusted with high flexibility. This configuration so that prior to the printing ink in the UV light exposure. Its gloss, viscosity and other properties in production to be brought into full play.
Technology development and it showed in the printing industry large-scale exhibition on stage. In 1997,2001 and 2002 in the printing show, users can feel the development of UV technology rapidly. 2003, Heidelberg, U.S. companies has produced a "beyond vision" of the album, showing a lot of mixed on the use of UV light and polishing to create the Huacai effect. The album was the U.S. printing industry "Ben-nie" Awards, they created the "other people that can never be realized in the printing effects."
Today, the packaging industry by the opening of the special process has been in this business, labels and special printing, and other fields has been widely used. Varnish offset printing ink and the quality of continuous improvement, UV drying system makes more and more powerful UV printing more and more favored by the market. More and more U.S. commercial printing enterprises with UV print the significant advantage to attract customers, the strategy to guide them to success. On the other hand market demand not only by supply factors. Yung many households, especially in the pursuit of a designer Naturalization product appearance, they tend to use UV technology.
It was the largest U.S. maker of ink to statistics, the local market in each of UV inks and Varnish consumption has about 15 percent growth. This figure is the traditional offset printing ink type supplies on the market growth rate of 10 times. Hybrid ink was once regarded as short-lived, the market was now more and more respected. There are many products, such as the manufacture of ink pearl sheen effect, metallic ink and fluorescent inks, is also on the market was growing steadily.
UV drying device of the rapid development of the market. And certain ancillary equipment downturn compared to all the major production drying device manufacturers, including Heidelberg, IST companies, have received from users in a large number of orders. This situation not only appear in the user to purchase new equipment, and more and more printing companies to reflect the investment strategy emphasizes the trend reflects the business-to-production equipment future considerations and care.
Does this mean that each printing enterprises must have their own UV printing ， Expert advice is: Every business should be on the UV light and mixed-polishing process to understand and know how they will be for companies to create a market opportunity. At the same time meet the investment UV polishing process, enterprises need a better understanding of customer demand conditions, to determine whether this investment to corporate profits.
