As demand for personalized and short-run customized products continues to grow, businesses are looking for efficient ways to decorate cylindrical and curved surfaces. Traditional methods like labeling or screen printing often fall short when it comes to flexibility, detail, and full-wrap coverage.
The Komodo UV360i is designed specifically to solve this challenge, enabling direct-to-object printing on a wide range of cylindrical products with precision and consistency.
What Is the Komodo UV360i?
The Komodo UV360i is a 360-degree rotary UV flatbed printer engineered for printing directly onto cylindrical and tapered objects such as bottles, mugs, and tubes. Using UV-curable inks, the system prints full-color graphics that cure instantly under UV light, resulting in durable, high-resolution output.
Unlike traditional flatbed printers, the rotary mechanism rotates the object during printing, allowing seamless coverage around the entire surface.

The rotary system enables continuous printing around cylindrical objects, allowing for edge-to-edge designs without gaps or seams.
2. UV Ink Technology
UV-curable inks adhere directly to a variety of substrates and are instantly cured under UV light. This results in:
- Sharp image quality
- Strong adhesion
- Resistance to fading and wear
- Immediate handling after printing
