Eco solvent inks are primarily designed for outdoor advertising printers, not desktop or commercial models. Compared to traditional solvent inks, outdoor eco solvent inks have improved in several areas, especially in environmental protection, such as finer filtration and more eco-friendly solvents. However, they still retain the characteristic of being slow to dry.

To address this, the design of printing equipment must focus on rapid drying. Additionally, due to their slight corrosiveness, eco solvent inks require higher quality printing components. Piezoelectric print heads are ideal for eco solvent inks because they are more compatible with various ink types compared to foaming print heads.

What are the main ingredients of eco-solvent ink?

Its main component is an organic solvent, which has certain corrosive properties compared to the commonly used water-based ink. In the design of the ink path system, if the materials are not used properly, it will easily cause damage to the printing ink system. Therefore, it is recommended to use the weak solvent ink products produced by the high-quality ink manufacturer AoBoZi.

How to use eco-solvent printing ink better?

Given the unique properties of eco-solvent inks, it’s important to choose a corrosion-resistant continuous ink supply system or cartridge. Some users have experienced issues with weak solvent ink, such as leaking external cartridges and blocked pipeline elbows, which can affect nozzle performance and cause print disconnection. If the device is not used for an extended period, clean the nozzle to prevent residual ink from solidifying and causing blockages.

Does eco solvent ink printing need to be used with coating liquid?

Eco solvent ink can be printed without coating on some materials, or it can be printed without coating by means of printer heating, but for some smooth surfaces, ink pile-up will occur, making it difficult to image clearly.

Three advantages of using coating liquid for eco solvent ink

Advantage 1: Accelerate drying speed, and use the two together to improve production efficiency.

Advantage 2: The picture quality details are richer. The combination of the two can maximize the performance of the printing equipment and achieve high-quality picture output.

Advantage 3: The coating liquid has strong adaptability and can be applied to various types of substrates. Under different customer needs, small batches of special media customization can also be easily achieved.
