Advanced ink circulation technology combined with reliable pigment dispersion technology is an indispensable technology for high quality ceramic digital printing. This technology ensures that the ceramic ink constantly flows in the system, overcoming the ceramic pigments becoming sticky particles in the ink.

Ceramic Printed Modern Doorway

The beauty of ceramic products has shown the artistic essence of ancient Chinese ceramic culture since ancient times. After the millennia ago, ceramic printing has a different color.

In fact, the digital ink jet printing technology that can be printed on ceramics, glass, etc., appears on the market, and has been very promising in the field of home decoration. In simple terms, digital ink jet printing technology uses low-temperature UV ink ink, which has the advantages of low cost, high resolution, and detailed images. However, it also has disadvantages such as poor resistance to UV rays, easy scraping and peeling, and inability to use in outdoor environments. For the glass industry, after printing on the glass surface, it is no longer possible to perform deep processing such as coating and lamination.

The current market and customer groups are far less aware of glass digital ceramic printing technology than digital ink jet printing technology. From a global point of view, durability is the basic requirement of the market for glass prints. Most items used for the decoration of durable goods such as home appliances, furniture, building materials, etc., must be printed in a pattern that does not discolor and is not destroyed during the entire life cycle of the item.

Glass digital ceramic printing technology is a digital printing technology that uses ceramic ink directly on outdoor or indoor decoration glass. The raw material of high-temperature ceramic ink consists of ceramic powder particles. After cleaning, the glass is printed, and then dried at a low temperature of 150 degrees Celsius to partially volatilize the added organic solvent. After that, the glass enters a tempering furnace at 650 to 720 degrees Celsius, and the inorganic ceramic powder particles remaining in the ceramic ink are tempered. The high temperature of the furnace is completely sintered on the glass and eventually becomes part of the glass.

There are ceramic things on ceramics

In short, digital printing can meet the needs of users regardless of what they want to print, what media is printed on, and when they are printed. Such on-demand printing greatly reduces the secondary costs such as preparation time and storage.

After a few years of stagnation, the application of digital printing to fabric printing has become the major gap that needs to be crossed. Compared with other important digital printing market applications, such as glass printing in industries such as construction, home appliances, and automobiles, digital printing of ceramic tableware is obviously still in its infancy.
