Print full color on woodSpecializing in custom interior architectural signage, Inter Sign National, LLC of Baltimore, MD has been serving the Baltimore, Washington DC and Northern Virginia areas for the past 45+ years.

When searching for a printer that had the ability to print directly to substrates and reduce their need for screening, Inter Sign National saw the Direct Jet 1024UVMVP as a viable and cost-effective option. "Furthermore, I needed a printer that printed a very opaque white, and this was the best that we saw," says Owner Lisa Lisberger.

Not only using their machine as a replacement for sub-surface screening and textured signs for donor recognition walls, Inter Sign National, LLC is also leveraging their UV LED printer technology to produce ADA/Braille compliant signage.

"Printing on acrylic, metal, sentra and glass, the 1024UVMVP eliminates the cost of film, emulsion and screening inks. It also has reduced our manufacturing time," says Lisa. "Additionally, applications like TEXTUR3D™ and ADA signage give us the capability to provide our customer with unlimited choices and graphic options."

Renowned for quality and customer service, Inter Sign National, LLC produces products for all markets, but specifically targets hospitals, schools of higher learning, government facilities and new construction projects.

UV LED Printing Could Redefine Your Part Marking Processes

Part marking

One of the more popular uses for a Direct Jet UV LED printer is permanent, durable industrial part marking. An ideal solution for this application, the Direct Jet UV LED printers deliver crisp text and sharp, detailed logos and images in bright white, rich black and vibrant colors on metals, plastics, ceramics and a wide variety of other materials.

With many advantages over traditional marking methods such as electrochemical, laser and dot peen, DCS printers are quick and easy to set up and operate and boast increased flexibility and customization options. They can create crisp, durable marks, including super-fine text and various standard codes on even the darkest and most delicate parts.

Direct Jet UV LED printers can serve as industrial part labelers for many applications, including:

  • Barcode marking
  • Marking for part identification and traceability
  • Unique identification (UID) marking
  • Industrial and commercial labeling
  • Dial faces and equipment face plates and serial plates
  • Military, aviation and commercial name plates, including highly contrasted markings
  • Microchips and other electronics components
  • Injection-molded parts
  • And more!
