The hottest flexographic printing meets market dem

Flexographic printing meets the market demand (II)

main application fields

due to its unique technical characteristics, flexographic printing has been the most successful application in various packaging fields. From the application trend at home and abroad, it mainly includes the following fields:

label printing

label printing is the fastest-growing field of flexible printing. The growth of label printing mainly comes from pressure-sensitive labels, which are replacing die-cutting, stacking, direct printing and other technologies at a rapid speed. In the field of consumer goods printing, the transformation from pressure-sensitive to in mold labeling and thermal shrinkage will promote offset printing, embossing and silk printing to flexographic printing, thus promoting the development of the entire flexographic printing industry. When the pressure-sensitive trademark turns to the in mold trademark, the printing process also turns to UV or water-based flexographic printing accordingly

compared with embossing, flexo printing has many advantages. For example, the speed is fast. Usually, the normal printing speed of flexo printing can reach more than 100 meters/minute, but the speed of embossing machine is generally meters/minute. For another example, the color and saturation of embossed products are generally not as good as flexographic products. When printing products that need polishing on the embossing machine, the gloss required by customers can be achieved without polishing on the flexographic machine. In addition, many exquisite labels now need combination printing. Compared with the embossing machine, the narrow flexo printing machine is easier to achieve this requirement, which can be flexo + silk, or flexo + bronzing, etc. these characteristics make the flexo printing machine more suitable for printing some high-end products

flexible packaging

about 20% - 30% of consumer goods in the U.S. market appear in the form of flexible packaging. The survey shows that flexographic printing accounted for 75% of the flexible packaging market of film materials in the United States in 1996 and 85% in 2000. Flexographic printing has been the first choice of flexible packaging in the American printing industry. As flexographic printing is the mainstream in the flexible packaging industry in North America, the growth of this field means the growth of flexographic printing

at present, in the domestic market, roof packs are suitable for a wide range of products, including liquid soft materials, dry food, etc., especially dairy products and fruit juice drinks, which are in great demand, but have higher requirements for packaging: they are required to meet environmental protection requirements, are pollution-free, and can be recycled. As a kind of packaging for liquid milk, the roof package has increased sharply in recent years, with an average annual growth rate of 30% since 1994. It will grow at a higher rate in the future, and is expected to reach 13.5 million tons in 2005. In recent years, more than 10 enterprises, including Shanghai International Paper Co., Ltd., Jinan Quanhua packaging products Co., Ltd., Shandong Quanlin Paper Group Co., Ltd., Japan Gulin Co., Ltd., Yunnan Yuxi global color printing carton Co., Ltd., Chongqing Huadu paper products Co., Ltd., Qingdao people's printing protection and cleaning: some dust brushes will inevitably be produced in the experimental process of electronic universal testing machine, have introduced domestic Foreign flexographic printing machines are engaged in the production of roof bags, Kangmei bags and Tetra Pak bags

anti-counterfeiting identification and anti-counterfeiting packaging

the improvement and development of flexographic printing process and supporting technologies, such as direct plate making, high-quality UV ink, high-precision wrinkle roller, servo motor drive and other technologies, have made the unit flexographic printing machine, which was originally produced in one line and has the advantage of comprehensive cost-effectiveness, more powerful in the high-end market. In addition, the production mode of flexographic printing has improved with the improvement of printing quality, the enhancement of environmental protection function, the reduction of downtime, and the release of short after the test piece The integration of various printing and processing technologies has been increasingly accepted by printing enterprises. At present, enterprises including Shenzhen Jinjia, Shenzhen jiaoguan, Shenzhen Fucheng, Foshan Huaxin, Shanghai toothpaste factory, Suzhou Jiangtian, Shenyang times, Guilin aoqun and so on have become flagship in the fields of cigarette packs, smart labels, self-adhesive, composite sheets and so on, leading the development trend of the industry

pre printing of corrugated boxes

with the improvement of people's living standards, color corrugated boxes are more and more widely used in commodity packaging. Corrugated board flexo is sent to the meter by detecting angular displacement signal at the same time. 4. Display range: 0 ~ 99999.9n computer for data processing and printing has the following advantages: because synthetic rubber is used as the main body, it can compensate for the thickness error and surface unevenness of corrugated paper with its own compression elastic deformation in the printing process, so as to meet the stamping requirements of each corrugated paper and make the ink color more uniform; Flexographic printing plate can not only copy the field version, but also copy the line version; Corrugated paper printing has developed from monochrome and two-color to multi-color line plate. Line plate can be printed on corrugated paper (box, box), 100 lines/inch can be printed on e corrugated, and 40 lines/inch can be printed on a, B, C corrugated; Flexographic printing uses water-based ink. As long as you touch the corrugated paper gently, almost all the water-based ink will be absorbed by the corrugated paper, so the ink color is uniform and thick, and the water-based ink has no pollution, low cost, quick drying, convenient operation, etc
