1. A machine for drying inks of the UV type, the machine comprising: a supporting frame, which forms at least one exposure chamber, configured to be accessed from the outside and accommodates at least one UV ray emission source, further comprising, on said supporting frame, at least one carriage which supports rotatably at least one supporting pan for supporting at least one object to be processed which is provided, on a surface thereof, with at least one print provided by UV inks, means for rotational actuation of said at least one supporting pan about an axis thereof being provided to rotate said at least one object to be processed, said carriage being movable with respect to said supporting frame to move said at least one supporting pan from an exposure position, in which said at least one supporting pan is arranged within said exposure chamber, to subject the UV inks applied to the object to be processed to an action of the UV rays emitted by said at least one emission source, to at least one respective access position, in which said at least one supporting pan is arranged outside of said exposure chamber, to allow a loading of said at least one object to be processed on said at least one supporting pan or an unloading of the processed object from said at least one supporting pan, said rotational actuation means being activatable on command at least with said at least one supporting pan in said exposure position, wherein said carriage rotatably supports at least two supporting pans, respectively at least one first supporting pan and at least one second supporting pan, each configured to receive at least one respective object, said carriage being movable with respect to said supporting frame, so that alternately one of said first and second supporting pans is in said exposure position and simultaneously another of said first and second supporting pans is in a corresponding access position, wherein said carriage is configured to move by translation, with an alternating back and forth motion, along a movement trajectory, between at least two stroke limit positions, respectively a first stroke limit position and a second stroke limit position, arranged at opposite ends of said movement trajectory, said at least one exposure chamber being formed in an intermediate region along said movement trajectory, said supporting pans being arranged to be mutually aligned along a direction that is substantially parallel to said movement trajectory, said first supporting pan being in the corresponding access position and said second supporting pan being in said exposure position, with said carriage in said first stroke limit position, said first supporting pan being arranged in said exposure position and said second supporting pan being in the corresponding access position with said carriage in said second stroke limit position.
