From industrial production to creative personalization, UV printing technology has transformed how we customize and manufacture products across industries. But what’s next? As the demand for on-demand, personalized, and intelligent solutions grows, the convergence of AI and UV printing is redefining the future—especially in the fast-paced retail and consumer experience sectors.
At the Shanghai Animation Expo (Aug 1–3), Refinecolor Printer, in collaboration with Epson, showcased a glimpse of this exciting future. Our featured innovation—AI-powered self-service UV printers for personalized souvenir coins—drew attention from crowds of visitors eager to experience the next generation of smart UV printing.
The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into UV printing marks a critical shift from “print-as-commanded” to “print-with-intelligence.” This technological leap offers transformative benefits:
AI makes mass customization possible in real-time. Our AI UV printer system, featured at the expo, allows users to:
Instantly generate personalized coin designs via facial recognition, text input, or design templates
Preview the output on-screen before committing to print
Complete the printing process via self-service kiosk models powered by Refinecolor UV flatbed printers
This automation provides retail operators with a UV printer for retail that turns foot traffic into revenue—offering consumers instant satisfaction with memorable, customized items.
AI-driven UV printers can automate design processing, material recognition, and layout adjustments—freeing operators from repetitive tasks and reducing training requirements.
Whether it’s a 6090 UV printer used in a mall pop-up store, or an A3 UV printer installed in a souvenir shop, AI integration minimizes human error and boosts efficiency.
With embedded AI modules, smart UV printing solutions can monitor system health, ink levels, temperature, and material types in real-time—enabling predictive maintenance and reducing downtime.
This is particularly useful for retailers and print-on-demand businesses that require reliable, always-on operation.
Interactive interfaces powered by AI—such as touchscreens with design guidance, or mobile phone integration—create an engaging, intuitive user journey. Visitors at our booth loved the simple, gamified printing process of the AI UV souvenir printer.
This is more than a product—it's a retail experience.
As UV printer manufacturers move beyond traditional industrial markets, we’re entering a phase where personalization, automation, and smart connectivity dominate. Some key directions include:
With AI integration and compact designs, UV printers are now ideal for shopping malls, museums, airports, and entertainment venues. Machines like Refinecolor's desktop flatbed printer or custom UV printing kiosks are enabling personalized goods—from phone cases to metal tags—within minutes.
Combining DTF printers, DTG printers, and UV technology in a unified smart platform will allow retailers to offer a broader range of materials and effects, all within a single machine interface.
With growing interest in SaaS-based print environments, cloud-integrated UV printers can receive designs from online stores or customer devices, process jobs intelligently, and deliver seamless user experiences both in-store and remotely.
AI-enabled printers help reduce ink waste by optimizing print paths, color management, and curing cycles—supporting eco-conscious printing that meets modern retail values.
Our partnership with Epson UV print technology ensures unmatched print quality, reliability, and color precision—while our own AI development empowers smarter workflows and tailored user experiences.
Together, we are building a new generation of AI UV printers designed not only for factories and workshops, but for malls, museums, souvenir kiosks, and lifestyle retail chains worldwide.
