UV printer – color white vs color white black and white: five dimensions reveal the technology gap
UV color white has rapidly become popular in the field of commercial display due to its unique process advantages, which is mainly reflected in the following aspects:
1. Outstanding visual effect
Double-sided gorgeous picture: color white uses three layers of ink (color + white + color), and the white ink layer enhances the color saturation. Both the front and back sides present high-precision and high-brightness visual effects, which are especially suitable for scenes such as windows and glass advertisements
Three-dimensional sense and transparency: combined with transparent materials (such as super-transparent glass stickers), color white can achieve partial transparency and partial solid color effects, giving the picture a three-dimensional sense and layering, and enhancing the attractiveness of advertisements
2. Strong material adaptability
Wide applicability: It can be applied to uncoated materials such as super-transparent glass stickers, transparent adhesive, PVC light sheets, etc., and is compatible with mainstream cost-effective materials on the market, reducing the threshold for use
Excellent weather resistance: UV ink is corrosion-resistant, heat-resistant, and UV-resistant, ensuring that the picture is not easy to fade during outdoor or long-term display, and the service life can reach 3-5 years
3. High commercial value
Wide scene coverage: Applicable to advertising, subway packaging, office partitions, sightseeing elevators, product packaging and other fields, meeting the needs of brand owners for creative design.
Cost-effective: Compared with traditional inkjet printing technology, UV color white color has a short production cycle, simple post-maintenance, and supports mass production, with outstanding cost performance.
2. Key differences between color white color and color white black and white color
1. Process structure differences
Color white color: three layers of ink (color + white + color), the front and back sides share the middle white ink layer, and different pictures on both sides cannot be achieved.
Color white black and white color: five layers of ink (color + white + black + white + color), the middle black ink layer separates the front and back pictures, supports independent patterns on both sides and no mirror problems
2. Mirror and light transmittance problems
Color white color defects: the back picture is a mirror image (the pattern is reversed), and there is slight light transmittance, which affects the double-sided display effect
Advantages of color white and black and white: The black ink layer isolates light transmission, eliminates mirror images, achieves “positive double-sided image” and “rejects overlapping images”, and is suitable for scenes that require accurate information transmission.
3. Comparison of application scenarios
Color white and color: Suitable for scenes with high requirements for double-sided consistency, such as brand windows, subway advertisements, and glass partitions
Color white and black and white: Suitable for high-end displays that require double-sided independent images, such as commercial display, art installations, anti-collision reminder stickers, etc.
UV color white and color has become the preferred process for commercial display due to its advantages of double-sided gorgeousness, strong durability, and wide adaptability. The color white and black and white color solves the problems of mirror images and light transmission through a five-layer ink structure, further expanding the application boundaries of transparent materials. When choosing, you need to weigh the differences between the two based on the scene requirements (such as whether double-sided independent images are required) and the budget
