In the process of modern production and life, the printing machine has become a very important tool, whether it is textiles, plastics, metals or other materials, the printing machine can print exquisite patterns for it. However, with the development of science and technology, edible printing machines have also emerged, they can print a variety of patterns on food, not only beautiful, but also increase the added value of food. So, Can any printer be used as an edible printer? it will be discussed in this article in depth.


First of all, we need to understand what is an edible printer. Edible printer is a machine specially used for printing patterns on food, and its used ink or dye must be in line with food safety standards, harmless to the human body. In addition, after special treatment, the foods are ensured not to be caused any contamination in the printing process.


However, not all printing machines can be used as edible printing machines. Traditional printing machines, whether screen printing machines, thermal sublimation printing machines or other types of printing machines, they usually use non-food grade inks or dyes, which are not suitable for consumption. If these machines are used for food printing, the printed food may be harmful to human health.


So, how is the edible printing machine different from the traditional printing machine? First of all, the ink used in the edible food printer must meet food safety standards, and these materials can be specially treated to ensure that they will not cause any contamination of the food during the printing process. Inks or dyes used in traditional printing machines have no such restrictions.


Secondly, the design and construction of edible printer also need to take food safety into account. For example, the components of the machine need to be easy to clean and disinfect to prevent any possible bacterial growth. The traditional printing machine may not have such a design and function.


Although edible printing machines differ from traditional printing machines in material and design, they are similar in principle and function. Whether it is edible printing machines or traditional printing machines, they are able to print exquisite patterns for a variety of materials according to the needs of customers.


In general, not any printing machine can be used as an edible printing machine. Only those printing machines that use inks or dyes that meet food safety standards and are designed with food safety in mind can be safely used for food printing. With the continuous progress of science and technology, edible printing machines can not only print exquisite patterns on food, but also add more added value to food. For example, through the edible food printer, we can print key information such as nutrition, health information and production date on the food, so that consumers can understand and choose. This will help increase food transparency and enhance consumer trust in food. Moreover, consumers can also print any other patterns on the foods according to their demands. For example, Foodart® High-Speed Industrial Food Printer FP-542-B from Foodprinttech(edible printing machine manufacturer) is a food printing machine applied to print edible picture decorations on different shapes of cookies, pastries, ice cream, candies, and so on. Its edible ink meets FDA, ISO22000, Kosher and halal standards. The printed patterns can be eaten directly, which not only guarantees food safety issues, but also makes products unique and attractive to customers.

In short, edible food printers are the product of scientific and technological development, and they are different from traditional printing machines in material, design and function. Not any printing machine can be used as an edible printer, and only printing machines that meet food safety standards can be safely used for food printing. With the continuous progress of science and technology, it is believed that more edible printing machines that meet food safety standards will come out in the future, bringing more innovation and opportunities to the food industry.
