Printing your own CDs & DVDs with an inkjet printer is a great way to promote your company. The only drawback with inkjet printed discs is that they are subject to damage from moisture, light and everyday handling. Coating your ink-jet printed CDs & DVDs with a lacquer will protect against these problems. Now with the introduction of the new Artcoater, the first ever, desktop UV Coating Station, you can do so quickly, easily and safely.

The fast and efficient process used by the Artcoater ensures that:

· Discs are manually or automatically loaded (depending on machine version) onto the turntable.

· The Artcoater will then coat your discs with the protective lacquer

· The surface of the disc will then be cured automatically by U.V (Ultra Violet) light

The cycle time for a 120mm disc is approximately 30 seconds. Discs can then be packaged immediately, as discs dry instantly.

The technology used in the Artcoater allows the user to fine tune the finish they prefer from full gloss to satin, depending on preference and disc surface. Coating the surface of discs enhances the colors printed on them.

Designed to be clean & environmentally friendly, the Artcoater coupled with its unique and compact extraction has virtually ZERO emissions.

The Artcoater is available as a manual single load system or as an automated unit, allowing unattended coating of up to 235 discs per session. The Artcoater’s small footprint means that desktop operation is possible and makes the Artcoater ideal for a duplication facility or print shop.
