Here are the differences between printing on wood using a UV flatbed printer vs. a roll printer for printing on canvas rolls:
Printing Technology: A UV flatbed printer uses a flatbed to hold the printing material in place while the printer head moves over it to deposit the ink. On the other hand, a roll printer feeds a roll of printing material through the printer while the printer head moves back and forth over it.
Material Compatibility: UV flatbed printers are suitable for printing on rigid materials, including wood, glass, acrylic, and metal. Whereas, roll printers are designed for printing on flexible materials such as canvas, vinyl, and fabric.
Print Size: UV flatbed printers can print on large, flat surfaces up to several feet in size. In contrast, roll printers can print on long rolls of material, which means they are best for printing larger images that can be printed across multiple panels.

Our Wood Art Printing Process
The smell of fresh wood fills the air as we step into the wood printing studio. The studio is a cozy space, with natural light streaming in from the large windows. In the center of the room sits a state-of-the-art UV printer, surrounded by premium lumber waiting to be transformed into beautiful wood prints.
We start by taking a close look at the lumber that will be used for the wood prints. Each piece of wood is carefully selected, ensuring only the finest quality wood is used. The wood is then sanded to perfection, ensuring a smooth and even surface for printing.
Now it's time to see the UV printer in action. The wood is placed on the printer bed and the design is loaded into the computer. The printer uses UV technology to print the design directly onto the wood, creating a vibrant and long-lasting image.
