UV Cylindrical Printing FAQs
Can cylindrical UV printers print directly on tumblers and water bottles?
Yes, when the shape, coating, size and material are compatible with the chosen machine and ink system. Ask GPI to confirm suitability for your specific product.
What is the difference between cylindrical and flatbed UV printers?
Cylindrical systems rotate the object for printing around its surface. Flatbed systems hold items on a table and print primarily onto flat or suitably positioned surfaces, although some flatbeds accept optional rotary attachments.
Can a cylindrical printer handle tapered drinkware?
Some models support tapered or curved-profile objects, but capability varies. Compare your object's dimensions and taper with manufacturer limits before ordering.
What inks do I need for the Roland RC-300?
The RC-300 Series uses Roland ECO-UV EUV-HB inks. Shop compatible RC-300 UV ink.
