What learning looks like
Skills with a purpose.
Learners see how a UV printer applies ink directly onto a surface such as acrylic, wood or metal and cures it instantly with UV light. Along the way, they prepare a design file for a specific material and print area, test settings on samples, and compare a finished print against the original design.
Learning outcomes
- Prepare a design file sized and formatted for a specific surface and print area
- Explain how UV-cured ink layers, gloss and texture affect a finished piece
- Test print settings on sample materials before running a final print
- Follow safety steps when operating UV printing equipment
- Compare a finished print's colour and finish against the original design and adjust
A starting point that fits.
