Characteristics of Solvent-Based Gravure Inks and Their Relationship with Printing
2024-12-10
Solvent-based gravure printing inks consist of pigments, resins, additives, and a significant amount of solvents, making the ink relatively thin. The drying process of solvent-based gravure inks is volatile, which makes them suitable for printing on paper, films, aluminum foil, and other materials. Given that gravure printing presses operate at hig…

Fault Analysis of High-Speed Rotogravure Printing
2024-11-07
High-speed rotogravure printing operates at high speeds, with long paper paths. Once a fault occurs, whether during shutdown for adjustments or startup, the waste generated can be enormous. The causes of such faults are manifold: one is the impact of physical and chemical changes in the ink; another is the effect of the ink's interaction with the a…

Investigation and Analysis of the Influence of Ink-Water Balance and Quality in Lithographic Printing
2024-09-23
Lithographic printing is based on the principle that oil and water do not mix. The image areas on the plate are oleophilic (ink-attracting) and hydrophobic (water-repellent), while the non-image areas must first absorb water to become hydrophilic and ink-repellent. One of the characteristics of offset printing is that it uses an indirect printing p…
