Digital print is, on the whole, clean and efficient. By comparison the energy
consumption of screen printing technology which involves chemicals,
UV light and reclaiming, is many times that of a digital process.

Onset, at its peak energy load, needs far less juice than its less powerful competitors. Onset’s moving bed is driven by linear motors which are far more efficient than other movement systems.

To be as efficient as possible, the UV curing lamps and ink have to work together. Ink has to be formulated to cure at the exact energy wavelength put out by the lamps. If the ink is too reactive, you get material embrittlement; not reactive enough and the ink flows, compromising image
definition and adhesion.

In Onset, Fujifilm Sericol’s award-winning inks are precisely formulated to respond to the exact energy output of the lamps. It cuts heat, cuts energy and cuts costs.
