Caspijet CUP-1UV
Single Side UV Digital Cup Printer
The Caspijet CUP-1UV is a high‑speed single side UV digital printer designed for printing on cups and cylindrical containers. It features a rotatable printhead that enables both side printing (on cylindrical walls) and top printing (on rims, lids, and edges) – all on the same machine. Unlike conventional printing, it requires no plates or screens, allowing rapid changeovers and reduced setup time.
Suitable for plastic cups, paper cups, metal containers, glass bottles, square boxes, food containers, buckets, and more, the CUP-1UV uses UV‑curable inks with low-VOC options. With a rotary feeding system and automatic stacking, it supports continuous production at industrial speeds.
30-40 cups/min • White+CMYK in one pass • Top & side printing
