Unlock Color PCB Printing with PCBWay!

Color PCB Printing

Nowadays, traditional PCB printing technology can no longer meet the aesthetic requirements of modern circuit board production. To better fulfill customers’ design needs, we are pleased to announce that PCBWay has introduced UV printing equipment. This equipment utilizes UV-curable inks to achieve high-quality image printing on various materials, including fiberglass boards, metal substrates, ceramic substrates, flexible boards, and rigid-flex boards.

Features

● Adopting UV-LED lamp curing, which enables instant drying, can significantly enhances production efficiency.

● UV printing technology employs UV-curable inks, ensuring firm and clear printing information resistant to fading, thus enhancing product identification and aesthetics.

● The normal print survives SMT reflow.

● UV printing technology can present images in various colors and styles, meeting customers’ personalized requirements. Professional industrial-grade UV printers support high-precision printing, delivering exquisite results whether on flat panels or rolled materials.

● Unlike traditional printing methods, UV printing does not produce volatile organic compounds during the production process, ensuring air quality in the production workshop and providing employees with a safer and healthier working environment.

Prerequisites for Ordering

  1. Maximum size for a single piece: 270*470MM;
  2. Selection of background soldermask color required.

Design Specifications

  1. Drill holes, traces, soldermasks, and outline designs must comply with specifications.
  2. Avoid placing colored characters in areas with solder mask openings, such as surface-mount pads or through-hole pads.
  3. Please send the images you want to print on the PCB in the following formats: AI, PDF, JPEG, PNG, TIFF, etc., and indicate your desired printing location on the board.
  4. If the image contains a QR code, please ensure that the QR code can be accurately scanned and recognized.
  5. What kind of files should be provided for color printing?

Method one: Draw colored characters on the silkscreen layer of the Gerber and provide reference pictures.

Method two: If you include information about colored silkscreen in the Gerber layer, each individual color must have its own layer. If there is only one layer, we can only print one color. [This method is not recommended].

PCBWay welcomes you to give it a try if you’re interested! Besides, They will continue to enhance its manufacturing capabilities to bring more choices and personalized services to customers in the future.
