When printing QR codes on aluminum foil packaging bags, choosing a UV coding machine has the following obvious advantages compared to other types of coding machines:
High adhesion and wear resistance
UV inkjet printer: UV ink is instantly cured by UV irradiation, forming a strong adhesion layer on smooth surfaces such as aluminum foil. The printed QR code is not easy to fall off and is wear-resistant.
Thermal transfer inkjet printer (TTO): requires hot pressing to form a firm pattern on the surface of aluminum foil, but may not be suitable for high temperature sensitive materials.
Laser coding machine: By ablating the surface of the material to form a QR code, although it has strong adhesion, it may cause minor damage to the material on aluminum foil.
Thermal foaming inkjet printer (TIJ): Although it can print on various materials, its adhesion and wear resistance are usually not as good as UV inkjet printers.
High resolution and print quality
UV inkjet printer: capable of achieving high-resolution printing, ensuring clear and readable QR codes, suitable for occasions that require high-quality QR codes.
Thermal transfer inkjet printer (TTO): High printing quality, but resolution may not be as good as UV inkjet printers, especially for printing complex QR codes.
Laser inkjet printer: High printing quality, but there may be limitations on the surface of aluminum foil, which cannot achieve the precision level of UV inkjet printers.
Thermal foaming inkjet printer (TIJ): High resolution, but on smooth surfaces such as aluminum foil, the printing quality may not be as good as UV inkjet printers.
Rapid drying and production efficiency
UV inkjet printer: The ink solidifies instantly, and there is no need to wait for drying time after printing, making it suitable for high-speed production lines.
Thermal transfer inkjet printer (TTO): It solidifies immediately after printing, but requires a certain amount of hot pressing time.
Laser inkjet printer: instantly forms printed patterns, but speed may be limited by the power and settings of the laser equipment.
Thermal foaming inkjet printer (TIJ): Ink drying speed is relatively slow, which can easily cause diffusion or blurring problems in high-speed production lines.
Material adaptability and environmental friendliness
UV inkjet printer: suitable for various materials, not limited to aluminum foil, but also including plastic, glass, paper, etc., and UV ink is solvent-free, more environmentally friendly.
Thermal transfer inkjet printer (TTO): mainly suitable for plastic film, paper, etc., but has limitations for high temperature sensitive materials.
Laser coding machine: suitable for various materials, but using it on aluminum foil may cause certain material damage.
Thermal foaming inkjet printer (TIJ): Suitable for various materials, but its adhesion and printing quality on smooth surfaces are not as good as UV inkjet printers.
Cost and maintenance
UV inkjet printer: Although the initial equipment cost is high, the maintenance cost is low, the printing quality is stable, no solvents are needed, consumables are saved, and it is suitable for long-term continuous work.
Thermal transfer inkjet printer (TTO): The equipment and consumables costs are moderate, but the ribbon needs to be replaced regularly.
Laser coding machine: High initial cost, but no consumables required, low long-term operating cost, but complex maintenance.
Thermal foaming inkjet printer (TIJ): The equipment cost is low, but the ink cartridges need to be replaced frequently, making it suitable for small-scale production.
In summary, UV inkjet printers have shown significant advantages in printing QR codes on aluminum foil packaging bags due to their high adhesion, high resolution, fast drying, and wide material adaptability. They are particularly suitable for applications with high quality, efficiency, and environmental requirements.
