What is UV DTS?

UV DTS (Direct-to-Substrate) is an agile, multi-surface digital printing technology powered by Shangxin's proprietary, ultra-flexible UV inks. This revolutionary process allows you to print high-definition graphics directly onto textiles, leather sheets, and rigid materials — with absolutely zero liquid pre-treatment and no post-drying.

The system adapts intelligently based on your substrate choice:

  • For Rigid Media & Leather Sheets: Utilizes advanced multi-layer ink stacking to build heavy-dimensional, 3D tactile textures and realistic reliefs directly onto leather sheets (for premium shoes and bags), art canvas, acrylic blocks, and vintage tin/iron signs.
  • For Textiles & Apparel: Delivers a clean, sharp, and lightweight color finish directly onto denim jeans, 100% pure cotton, and high-performance polyesters, bypassing traditional DTG limitations with instant UV curing.

Key Features

Zero Pre-Treatment, Zero Drying

Print directly onto your object, and it's instantly cured by the printer's built-in UV lights. No liquid pre-treatment, no waiting for drying — immediate results.

3D Texture vs. Soft Textile

Unlock 3D embossed effects on rigid decor and leather, or apply soft, vibrant graphic prints onto flexible apparel without ink stiffness.

3D Embossed Textures on Leather

Print flexible 3D graphics directly onto leather sheets or cut pieces before sewing. The ink flexes naturally without cracking.

Production-Grade Adaptability

Supporting both UV Flatbed and Belt-Conveyor systems for roll media, our workflow ensures seamless, high-yield production.

Applications

UV DTS adapts to virtually any substrate — from fashion to industrial decoration
