www.komori.eu
The origins of H-UV
Seven years ago we were evaluating curing systems.
Benefits but many negatives.
Maintain the benefits and get rid of the negatives.
Develop with partners a new way of drying and new type of inks.
-
www.komori.eu
The Origins of H-UV
Many hours in development and testing.
Ensuring the recipe worked time after time.
The Return on investment ROI had a solid platform.
Why? Many false applications in the past
-
www.komori.eu
WHY WE DEVELOPED H-UV
-
www.komori.eu
Why we developed H-UV.
A constant drive for process efficiency.
Constant battle to maintain competitive edge.
Manufacturing requires innovation to progress.
Komori has a 30 year history of innovation.
Process Technology
People
Press room efficiency
Each leg is important independently but each is reliant on the strong support from the other two legs
-
www.komori.eu
Why we developed H-UV.
Compete with digital
High cost of materials.
Printing on difficult substrates.
Print On demand requirements.
A constant battle to maintain a status quo!
-
www.komori.eu
WHAT IS H-UV
-
www.komori.eu
What is H-UV
Development of a unique lamp with unique wavelength.
Ink with specially developed photo initiators.
Combination of tested and certified products.
-
www.komori.eu
What is H-UV ?
H-UV is a combination of NEW Technology and utilizing tested and selected products
Developed by KOMORI and only available from KOMORI
H-UV is Unique!
-
www.komori.eu
Conventional offset printing.
The ink emulsion dilutes into substrate.
Difficult to print on absorbent substrates.
Requires a combination of methods to speed up manufacturing.
Spray powder.
Water based varnish, IR/Hot air.
Standing time.
-
www.komori.eu
The Future!
Speed up the manufacturing process.
Reduce production cost.
Broaden your market possibilities.
Improve margins.
-
www.komori.eu
H-UV printing.
The ink dries on the surface.
Very little absorbency Higher gloss levels
especially on low grade papers.
No dry back therefore uses less ink.
Allows immediate finishing.
Allows immediate reverse printing.
-
www.komori.eu
H-UV printing
Reduced initial cost
Low Heat generation
Ozone free production
Environmentally friendly
Carton board printing possible
Plastic printing possiblel
Black Magenta Yellow
One H-UV lamp
Cyan
A system which can cure ink quickly using just one ozone-free UV lamp
-

H-UV benefits
A real alternative to conventional printing.
An application that increases your product quality, productivity and truly benefits your business.

Problems with oilbased conventional inks
1 uncoated offset papers
=> very slow drying, low piles
=> depending of water-/oil absorption of substrates
2 non-absorbent substrates
=> very slow drying, low piles
=> Usage of spray powder
3 coated offset papers => more and more rub, carbonating issues => varnishing necessary => Usage of spray powder
-
www.komori.eu
Advantages UV offset
Fast curing
Inline finishing
High chemical, mechanical resistances
Highest gloss levels (OPV)
Non absorbing substrates
No spray powder

H-UV
=> More contrast => Brighter colours => Bigger gammut
=> Less ink consumption
-
www.komori.eu
Possible applications / Benefits of H-UV inks
Packaging Commercial
On uncoated substrates: More contrast Brighter colours Bigger gammut Less ink consumption (up to 30%)
General: Better drying/curing No need of spray powder No varnishing needed Less temperature impact (plastics) Inline effects / finishing Less energy consumption
