According to the news of the German website of Eastmetz Group, at present, more and more newspaper printing companies choose to use UV technology and equipment for production. Their technical advantages include the following: fast drying and high density. Online printing of advertisements; printing of book covers on coated paper; printing on magazine paper; preprinting of inserts; increasing the commercial appeal of newspapers; adding value to existing products.

These technical advantages have made UV printing technology a major means for newspaper printing companies to achieve business growth and increase revenues in the current sluggish economic environment. In some cases, UV technology can help users recover their investment as quickly as possible. As publishers tighten their monetary ties and no longer invest in large rotary press models, they are likely to turn their attention to technologies such as UV printing that have a high rate of return on investment.

In spite of the existence of a large amount of surplus production capacity, some printing companies still take some jobs to a printing house with thermosetting printing presses for outsourced processing, thus resulting in a huge waste. Although the price of UV printing inks is more expensive than ordinary thermosetting inks, the advantages of UV printing technology in logistics and printing costs are very obvious under a certain amount of circulation. Even though the price of thermosetting inks has always been consistent with the price of crude oil, and is currently at a high level, it is still at a distance from the price of UV inks because the purity of the latter is higher—while thermoset inks contain at least 40% The solvent.

However, in order to successfully integrate UV technology into existing production lines, many technical parameters need to be taken into account, such as the overall increase in ink cost, different rheology with other inks, different chemical properties, etc. The ink system, roller and blanket set up some new requirements.

In addition, UV printing technology also has many advantages that are not available with thermosetting printing technology, making it an ideal replacement for traditional newspaper printing technology: no blistering; no need for post-incinerators; prints will not be heated Under shrinkage, no secondary humidification is required; no moire is generated; paper fibers do not curl up; no blemishes are produced on the rollers, folding machines, conveyor belts and mailing equipment of the printing press; Printed scratches in the dryer; no waviness of the product or paper roll; its drying device has a smaller footprint than the HS dryer; there is no need to change the direction of the roll paper.
