All our machines and UV Doming products
Advantages of our UV Doming
Our UV Doming stands out for its rapid polymerization, thanks to instant hardening in 10 minutes inside a UV lamp oven. This process optimizes production lead times, making it ideal for individual units as well as small and large production runs.
Once mixed, the resin and hardener can be stored for up to a week in the refrigerator, offering maximum flexibility. The mixture remains fluid throughout the application, thus avoiding any waste and allowing for precise and perfectly controlled work.
It also ensures remarkable resistance to scratches, impacts, and weather conditions, making it a durable solution for professionals with outdoor customization needs, guaranteeing durability and performance both indoors and outdoors.
With its relief effect and glossy finish, it gives your markings a premium look while preserving the vibrancy of the colors and the details of your prints.
Compatible with a wide variety of materials (vinyl, plexiglass, etc.), it offers fast and high-quality customization, ideal for giving your products a unique and durable look that catches your customers’ attention.

How does UV Doming work?
The production of UV Doming follows a precise process to ensure an optimal result:
Label printing
- Before applying the resin, the labels must be printed using Eco-Solvent or solvent printers, or by screen printing.
Choice of compatible substrates
- Materials must be compatible with UV resin. Adhesive polymeric vinyl is one of the most commonly used substrates.
Shape cutting
- Performed using a print/cut machine, a cutting plotter, or a laser engraver to achieve precise shapes.
Weeding
- This step consists of removing the unnecessary parts of the vinyl (outlines, non-printed areas) in order to obtain perfectly cut labels.
Substrate stabilization
- The labels are fixed onto stackable storage trays that ensure the support remains secure and protected from dust.
Environmental condition control
- A stable environment is crucial: a temperature between 22 and 25°C and humidity below 60% help prevent bubbles and ensure optimal drying.
Resin and hardener dosage
- A precise mixture with a 1/3 and 2/3 ratio is necessary to ensure uniform and optimal curing.
Mixing
- The mixture is homogenized by stirring the two components manually in a container and letting it rest for a few minutes.
Precise resin application
- The application is performed using a manual applicator or a syringe, allowing for precise and uniform dosing.
Natural resin spreading
- Thanks to its viscosity, the resin spreads over the substrate and stays in place without overflowing, due to the difference in surface tension between the two materials (labels and liner).
Polymerization phase
- The resin polymerizes in 10 minutes in a UV oven.
Quality control and finishing
- Once curing is complete, each label is inspected to verify the uniformity of the dome and the absence of defects.
Storage and shipping
- The labels are kept in a clean environment before being sent to customers or applied to their final surfaces.
