STS C-3 Cylindrical UV Printer

The STS C-3 is a cylindrical UV printer that puts full-color designs directly onto bottles, tumblers and other round or tapered products, no wraps or transfers required. You load the item, and the printer measures its shape, adjusts on its own and prints. The setup is simple, even for newer operators. The UV-cured ink dries as it prints and stands up to regular handling, which makes the C-3 a good fit for shops producing custom drinkware in-house.
