Description
Industrial Direct-to-Object Customization for Drinkware & Packaging
The Dacen F4 UV Cylinder Printer is an industrial-grade rotary inkjet printer engineered specifically for high-volume 360-degree digital printing on cylindrical and conical objects. Designed to eliminate traditional screen-printing setup costs and minimum order restrictions, the F4 enables fast, short-run and production-scale customization of stainless steel tumblers, glass bottles, metal cans, and acrylic containers.
Equipped with high-performance Ricoh Gen5i industrial printheads, the Dacen F4 achieves high-definition resolutions up to 1200 dpi with exceptional drop jetting stability. Its advanced rotary motion system and internal ink recirculation prevent clogging and deliver flawless edge-to-edge printing across variable surface curves.
Key Features & Advantages
-
360° Seamless Rotation
The servo-motor driven rotary axis delivers precision rotation for seamless, full-bleed artwork wraps. Say goodbye to registration gaps or overlapping seam lines on 20oz/30oz skinny tumblers and bottles.
-
Ricoh Gen5i Industrial Printheads
Built with 3x Ricoh Gen5i printheads, the F4 handles high-frequency jetting with ease. The integrated internal ink circulation system eliminates ink precipitation and air bubbles, extending printhead longevity and guaranteeing consistent ink flow.
-
Tactile Varnish & Opaque White Layers
With dedicated channels for CMYK, White, and Clear Varnish (K C M Y W V), you can apply full-color designs on dark or transparent substrates while creating localized spot gloss, matte textures, or 3D raised embossing effects.
-
6° Taper Compensation
Built-in multi-point height and taper compensation allows smooth ink throwing over tapered cups, sports bottles, and angled glassware without distortion or loss of clarity.
-
Eco-Friendly LED-UV Curing
Energy-efficient LED-UV lamps cure the ink immediately during the printing pass. The resulting prints are durable, water-resistant, and scratch-resistant right off the fixture.
