Digital glass printing
Application challenges
Architectural, appliance and automotive glass producers all require the ability to add tints, logos and decoration. Traditional glass printing and decoration techniques mean that short runs can be uneconomical, with limited flexibility to customise, making the introduction of new designs slow and costly.
Benefits of inkjet glass printing
- Short set-up times and low set-up costs make short runs economical
- Non-contact process means breakages are eliminated, delivering higher yield at lower cost
- Ability to print onto variable height and 3D surfaces makes it possible to print textured and non-flat glass
