How to choose a suitable digital printing press?

In the past, people often thought that the quality of digital printing could not be compared with traditional printing. With the continuous advancement of technology, digital printing has been able to print images with high resolution and bright colors, and its printing quality can fully meet the needs of various fine labels.


The use of digital printing in label printing also comes with some challenges. For example, the initial equipment investment is large and the initial use cost is relatively high; in addition, for mass production, the efficiency of digital printing may be slightly inferior to traditional printing. Overall, with the constant development of technology and further cost reduction, digital printing will undoubtedly play an increasingly important role in the label printing industry.


Different digital printing equipment's industrial characteristics

How to choose a qualified industrial digital printing machine? First, let’s take a look at the characteristics of different types of digital printing presses


01 UV inkjet digital printing machine

This type of digital printing machine uses fine nozzles to spray ink droplets directly onto the surface of paper or other media to form graphic information. The advantage of the digital UV inkjet printer lies in its high-speed printing capabilities and its ability to print on a variety of different materials without material pre-treatment, which is very suitable for small batches and diverse printing needs. At the same time, due to its non-contact printing method, UV inkjet printing does not require high flatness of the medium. The characteristic of UV inkjet printing is that the printed matter has a strong convex feel, which can replace some of the traditional screen printing effects, making the application range wider.


02 Electronic ink digital printing machine

This type of digital printer will accept electronic files through the storage medium, and use the potential difference between the imaging plate and the recovery roller to adsorb the electronic ink to the image area of the imaging plate, while the ink in the background area is recycled. This digital printing method offers realistic colors and clearer images. The liquid ink can be transferred from the blanket to the substrate 100%. Its outstanding features are fast printing speed, high resolution and low running cost. It is very suitable for large quantities of text and Chart printing job.


03 Laser digital printing machine

This type of digital printer uses a laser beam to scan graphic information on a photosensitive drum, and then transfers the toner to the paper through processes such as development and transfer. The laser digital printer has a high printing quality and is especially suitable for general printing. Additionally, its durability and stability make it the first choice for many corporate offices and print service providers.


Consider equipment selection from a product perspective

When choosing an industrial digital printing press, in addition to the performance and features mentioned above, you also need to consider factors such as actual printing needs, budget, and subsequent maintenance costs from a product perspective. Label printing is a multi-process product form with a wide variety of materials. For example, whether it involves the printing of special materials such as anti-counterfeiting labels, daily chemical labels or industrial labels. Printing companies need to determine the types and characteristics of printing products based on their own business scope and customer group needs, and then choose appropriate digital printing equipment.


First, considering the product itself is the starting point for choosing a digital printing machine. Different digital printers are good at handling different types of jobs. For example, UV inkjet digital printing is good at high-speed, high-volume production, while others are more focused on fine print quality. If the business needs are mainly high-quality short-run printing such as daily chemical labels and anti-counterfeiting labels, you should choose equipment with high color reproduction and high printing resolution; if the business involves more food labels and pharmaceutical labels, you need to pay attention to the continuity of the equipment. Production capacity and speed.


Second, equipment reliability and maintenance costs are also important considerations. A stable digital printing press can ensure the continuity of the production process and a low failure rate, which is crucial to ensuring delivery time and controlling operating costs. At the same time, equipment with easy access to maintenance services and spare parts will be more secure when considering long-term usability. In addition, equipment with simple maintenance and high consumable utilization rates can reduce subsequent use costs.


Third,Technical support and service are also factors that cannot be ignored when selecting equipment. Good technical support from the manufacturer means that you can get timely and effective help when you encounter technical problems or operational difficulties. Confirming in advance whether the manufacturer can provide comprehensive training courses and detailed operating manuals are important conditions to consider before selecting equipment.


Fourth, scalability and upgrade capabilities also need to be taken into consideration. With the development of business, the production process may have higher performance requirements for equipment or require more functional extensions at any time. Therefore, when purchasing equipment, you must consider whether hardware upgrades or software updates can be performed to adapt to future changes in demand.


Fifth, environmental protection and energy efficiency standards are equally important. At a time when sustainable development is receiving increasing attention, choosing digital printing equipment with low energy consumption and low emissions not only helps reduce operating costs, but also reflects the company's positive actions to assume social responsibility.


Sixth, the match between price and budget is one of the important factors in deciding to purchase. According to the actual budget situation, balance the cost performance of the equipment, which should not only meet the current business needs, but also take into account the long-term return on investment.


Seventh, user reviews and brand reputation are also important references for measuring the quality of equipment. Understanding the experience of other users through online forums, industry exchanges, etc. can be used as an indicator to judge the actual performance of the equipment and the quality of the manufacturer's service. A brand with a good reputation means it can provide more reliable products and better after-sales service. Choosing a digital printing machine is a comprehensive consideration process, which involves many aspects such as business needs, equipment performance, cost-effectiveness, technical support and services. While clarifying your own needs, combined with market information and comprehensive assessment, I believe you can make a wise choice. "Don't choose the expensive one, just buy the right one. The right one is the best." Choosing the most suitable digital printing machine will definitely help your company develop to new heights.
