Digital printing glass/3D printing glass
What is Glass Digital Printing Technology?
(also called 3D printing glass)
Digital printing glass technology
Simply put, it is through digital printing
Printing inorganic high-temperature inks directly onto glass
After the high-temperature sintering of the tempering process, it has good adhesion and weather resistance grade characteristics
Advantages: Any pattern, design and unlimited colors, accurate printing, realistic and realistic images, and graphics.
Persistence: The ink dissolves into the glass through high-temperature sintering, does not fade and does not fall off, and has scratch resistance, fire resistance, blister resistance, weather resistance, etc.
Expressiveness: Through any combination of transparency, clarity and opacity, color and pattern, or through gradient techniques to process graphics and colors, digital glass printing can be transformed into a tool for expressing design art.
Scope of application: Combined with the characteristics of digital printing glass, it can be widely used in outdoor decorative glass curtain walls, store door heads, outdoor billboards, and outdoor glass devices; indoor partitions, walls, doors and windows, furniture countertops, cabinet doors, mobile Doors, and decoration panels; electronic glass panels; automotive, high-speed rail/subway and other glass applications; these applications can all be realized.
Silkscreen glass VS digital printing glass
| craft | Drawing-film-screen-color-printing/artificial matching-drying-Tempering-finished products-washing net waiting for delivery | Drawing-printing(/automatic identification-Tempering-finished products |
| due date | a week later | instant processing |
| investment ratio | 1 | Domestic:1~1.2;import:5~8 |
| occupied area | 500㎡ | 50㎡ |
| Cost of production | 1+unknown additional charges for templates | Import：10 times； Domestic: With the development of domestic technology, the product cost is under control, between 1.5 and 3, further domestic promotion and application will be equal to or even lower than the cost of traditional silk screen printing |
| Environmental friendly | Oily (no processing) Water-based (washing net pollution / large discharge) | Water-based environmentally friendly paint with almost no emissions |
| Staff support | from 6 people | 1~2 people |
| Realize the product | Single color/pattern is harsh | Can be multi-colored/approachable gradually, thickness adjustable/arbitrary graphics |
Based on the above, digital printing has obvious advantages, and with the advancement of science and technology at any time, the pace of replacing traditional silk screen printing is making great strides.
Expression form of digital printing gradient technique
The gradient of the pattern (the most common practice)
Gradient of color
Gradient of ink volume (mainstream usage)
Gradient of color + pattern + ink volume (comprehensive usage)
Application cases of digitally printed glass
Dark texture print curtain wall application
ink painting printing application
Cedar hit application
Color picture printing case
Marble print case
Application of the printed pattern in backlight
