This ceramic printed glass panel is made by an industrial direct-on-glass digital printer. Special ink compositions are used for long lasting glass printing, which commonly include micro- particles of glass. The fixation of the printed image is made by firing the printed glass in a furnace at high temperatures of 550 degrees Celcius and more. The exposure of the ink to such high temperatures causes the glass micro particles to melt, thus affixing the ink pigments into the printed glass surface. The ink is scratch-proof and UV resistant. The versatile flatbed unit is suitable for any glass application, including interior and exterior architectural glass. Available sizes of the glass are up to 2.4m x 3.7m glass size, and 4-19 mm glass thickness.
