THE EPS Rotary UV Inkjet printing rotary machines are able to print with precision and high speed on cylindrical objects (straight walls) and conical objects such as bottles, glasses, etc. in high resolution. The UV inks used dry instantly during printing.
This type of machines, unlike other solutions on the market, are designed specifically for rotary printing, so they are not just the result of adding an accessory to a flat machine. Each parameter and each movement are designed specifically for this application. And this makes the difference.
