    Winter “Machine” Secrets: Unveiling the Maintenance Tips for UV Printers

    As Winter Approaches, Printers Also Need Care

    Introduce that as winter comes, UV printers require maintenance, leading to the key maintenance points below.

    Warm – up Before Starting, Initiate a Cozy “Printing Time”

     

    Explain the importance of warm – up before starting the machine. It is recommended to warm up the UV printer for about 10 minutes every day before use to achieve the best printing condition.

    Nozzle Maintenance, Guarding the “Core” of Printing

     

    Elaborate on the methods of nozzle maintenance. During normal use, clean the nozzle with the cleaning solution provided by the manufacturer once a week. If the printer is not used for 7 – 20 days, the ink in the nozzle needs to be drained to keep it smooth, dry, and dust – free.

    Regular Maintenance, “Loosening the Muscles and Bones” of the Printer

    Lubricating Mechanical Moving Parts

     

    List the moving parts that need to be filled with grease, such as the X – axis, Y – axis, and lead screw, to ensure smooth operation of the machine.

    Cleaning the UV Lamp

     

    Emphasize the necessity of cleaning the stains on the UV lamp, keep the surface of the UV lamp clean, and avoid ink contamination affecting its performance.

    Maintenance of the Ink Path System

     

    Indicate that according to the actual application situation, parts of the ink path system such as the ink pump, filter, and ink cartridge should be replaced in a timely manner.

    Cleaning Residues on the Tabletop

     

    Remind to clean the ink residues on the machine tabletop in a timely manner to prevent damage to the machine.

    Regulating the Environment, Creating a Comfortable “Working Space”

    Impact and Control of Temperature

     

    Explain the impact of decreasing temperature on the viscosity and fluidity of ink. It is recommended to maintain the indoor printing temperature at 20 – 28 degrees Celsius to ensure the normal operation of the ink.

    Impact and Adjustment of Humidity

     

    Describe the harm of low humidity to the equipment and ink, such as generating static electricity, ink flying, and nozzle clogging. It is recommended to maintain the indoor relative humidity at 50% – 70%.

    Daily Operations, Details Determine the “Printing Lifespan”

    Remind users to correctly use the three – phase power plug and ensure that the equipment’s power supply is properly grounded. Operators should wash their hands before operation and strictly follow the instructions to prevent static interference. For newly purchased printers, remove the outer packaging protective materials according to the standards in the user manual.

    Summary and Appeal

     

    Summarize the key points of UV printer maintenance in winter, and appeal to users to pay attention to daily maintenance, so as to extend the service life of the printer and ensure the smooth progress of production.
