Network printing operations of two modes and three stages of development

Order due to the printing volume growth is reduced, the centralized trend is obvious, the increasingly prominent contradiction between supply and demand, makes the insufficiency of printing enterprise order, seek order and a breakthrough in business as a printing enterprise top priority, and network printing, as a kind of improved printing enterprise marketing performance and means of improving operation efficiency, is a major concern.
Network printing business has two modes: one kind is provided by the printing electricity standard templates and files, such as image template, die-cutting, bronzing, name card template, poster template specification, after print-on-demand and on-demand printing file, in the end by the customer online self-service, completing the process of production, confirm and submit orders, electrical contractor is responsible for the production of finished products and delivery logistics.Characterized by printing electricity saving manpower and communication cost, cash collection is fast, don't need to be done for each file by professional inspection, adjustment and color management, and thus can provide printing services at lower costs and prices, realize the online order, offline services.May printing electricity traders and customers have never met before, but the highest efficiency, product quality can be recognized.
Is another customers order requirements and print files, but be a large number of printing copy, need customers proofing confirmed again and again.This is suitable for the demand is higher, batch larger traditional printing products.Using the Internet to provide customers with the file transfer, storage and management, place orders at any time 24 hours service, be the result of customer expectations and controllable "internal printing plant".
Network printing itself is marketing category, is in the service of the printing enterprise business operations, so you need to several stages of development.
1. According to customer needs and enterprise competence status to determine the main direction, because of printing enterprise engaged in the printing business, will determine the scope of business and customers, equipped with corresponding resources, if it is to do the image, then with customers and business sources, such as every industry customer characteristics of B2C business is different, the image most of customers is the final consumer, need from a large number of customers in the sample space to find customers, such as electricity, if the user traffic portal and platforms, or has a strong regional distribution ability and cost advantage, or channels to find customers from professional image, this kind of electricity image print RGB source of business and industry background of electricity ShangChengGong higher chances;Create customer demand or from the new business, this kind of electricity industry trends to grasp ability strong,This requires investors consider input and output ratio of high and low compared with competitors, to determine whether to enter and how to enter the specific market segment.
2. Determine the business model for online orders, offline services, network printing and how to gradually separate the existing business.Before printing companies in the network printing, basic it is have a certain customer base, price and service is carried out in accordance with the traditional business mode, but the network printing if ZouGe version, will mean lower prices, attracting new business, so often a lot of us version of the company's traditional offline order and online network version of the companies to do business is to separate the two, the traditional offline order service by professional team, the technique of artificial and cost is higher, and the online version of the business more is to rely on automation, customer self-service.This also gradually polarized in printing, large printing quality requirements go offline services, small print runs of the trend of the ordinary quality online self-service.Too large print runs high quality ZouGe version?From printing companies on the internal process has been a lot of printing to puzzle, but the page request is higher, thus the cost is high also, this is lead to the same network printing, the quality and printing requirements led to the business model also varies.
3. The flexible change.Different network printing development stage, the need to adjust to different methods of product and customer service strategies.Network printing is not printing enterprise lifeline, but disruptive innovation.Requires a huge time and energy, also need to really understand the marketing.In the boundless huge crowd, find out the need of network printing enterprises, and can let these companies come to their website last order, is absolutely high IQ eq.Often printing enterprise decision-makers might on the one hand, ability is outstanding, such as technical, business or operations, but electricity production to marketing, operations, three aspects are strong and can carve out the prospective, this requires printing enterprise decision-makers comprehensive ability is extremely strong, can in the different stages of electricity situation, make the correct predictions decisions to promote internal and external strategy shift, adapt to the development of network printing faster pace.Consider China network printing has its particularity, need to imitate the innovation.The success of network printing, is to find those with continual orders for customers and get their approval.

Three big questions lead to tobacco package limited water-based gravure printing ink application

Although a growing number of cigarette package printing enterprise begin to pay close attention to water-based ink, water-based ink application in the cigarette packet gravure has some improvement, but the current water-based ink is mainly used in the printing quality is not high on low-grade cigarette package, application in high-grade cigarette package is not optimistic, and there are still a lot of cigarette package printing enterprise in water-based ink.So what exactly is the problem in tobacco package limited water-based gravure printing ink application?
Problem a: ink performance is still insufficient
Overall, some properties of water-based ink temporarily cannot rival solvent-based inks, the printing effect and also exists certain gaps when compared with solvent ink, it is lead to cigarette package printing enterprise to do not have a high level of water-based ink to accept one of the main reasons.
First is dry, water-based ink with water as the main solvent, and the latent heat of evaporation of water, at room temperature volatilizes slower, so its flow property, adhesion, gloss is a solvent ink is less, easy to produce printing quality problem;Followed by solubility, water-based ink solubility depends on the solubility and dry between emulsion and paste with good or bad, in production requires constant stirring, and different brands of water-based ink, its safe storage period, more than safe storage period of water-based ink is easy to produce precipitation or stratification, even mixing is not too big effect, at this time there will be inevitable knife line fault, even more serious.
In addition, the current standard has some flaws, not enough attention and insufficient knowledge of water-based ink in some performance.In GB/T26395-2011 "standard of gravure ink, water-based tobacco package, for example, part of the standard of water-based gravure ink expression can still see the shadow of the alcohol water-based gravure ink, and not to ban list outside but must add additive substance has a definite limited addition, away from the real water soluble or water-based ink standard is still some distance.If the new standards of organic solvent can be banned limit to access system, namely material shall use rules, for the application of water-based ink in cigarette packet gravure plays a big role.
Problem two: need to adjust the production process
In cigarette packet gravure, if change the original use of solvent-based inks to water-based ink, must also be in several aspects, such as process parameters, equipment structure adjustment and improvement, otherwise will influence the printing effect.This not only need to ink materials production enterprises and actively cooperate with supplier, specification and skills to the operation of the operating personnel also have higher requirements.
For example, as a result of water-based resin used in water-based ink drying is irreversible, if still adopts traditional pour "diamond" shape mesh point of carving gravure, longer duration of use, dry solid ink at the bottom of the net hole will cause plugging, resulting in lack of ink transfer, thus influence the consistency of printing color.To this, on the one hand, it is necessary to convert the square mesh point laser carving gravure;Requirements, on the other hand, operators must be timely and thorough cleaning gravure, or drying after the whole version of the roll will be scrapped.
In addition, in order to make up for the inadequacy of water-based ink in a dry sex, also need to transform existing gravure press drying device, or increase the dry power of the drying device, or without altering the gravure press drying power, by changing the air volume, wind speed of drying device to improve the drying capacity.
Question 3: cost concerns
With the development of the tobacco industry to the activities of the tobacco companies began to strictly control the cigarette package cost, making tobacco package prices fall sharply, even led to a price trend.At the same time, raw material and energy prices are rising, labor costs continue to rise, makes the cigarette package printing enterprise profits continuously diluted, cigarette package printing enterprise in terms of cost considerations and therefore extremely sensitive and careful.
In the context of the current situation, cigarette packet gravure using water-based ink is higher than the cost of using solvent ink.On the one hand, water-based ink water-based resin as the link, the purchase price is much higher than ordinary solvents;On the other hand, in order to adapt to the water-based ink printing characteristics, energy consumption in production, equipment modification, etc also need to do some more or less capital investment.Therefore, for those who are not involved in the field of water-based ink cigarette package printing enterprise, to some extent, this will increase their concerns.

Each big brands compete for southeast Asian packaging and printing ink market

http://www.printing-in-china.cn/shownews.asp?id=2462
Southeast Asian countries has maintained a stable economic growth, and with the change of the market expansion and eating habits, consumer market in the region overall growth state, especially the market demand for packaging gravure printing ink is growing.
From the demand for packaging printing ink and offset printing ink, China and India are the most growth potential of the two markets.The two countries' the market is growing, consumer lifestyle also happening the great change, they the strong demand for packaging products to promote the growth of the Chinese and Indian markets.In addition to the two countries, other asia-pacific countries also has a very attractive.
Each big brand ink with Asian market
Toyo ink company localization in vigorously promoting gravure printing ink production at the same time, continue to develop and launch new products, to meet the needs of customers in southeast Asia.In addition, in order to coordinate the development of their strategy, toyo ink company at the end of 2012 also established new gravure printing ink factory in Vietnam and India, and plans to expand the gravure printing ink business to Indonesia and other southeast Asian countries.Toyo ink 2012, the company also set up joint venture with Chinese and Indian companies paint company, in order for the local and overseas customer to provide cost-effective organic pigments.
ChengWeiKe company established the new mixed color center in the Philippines and Vietnam, which will increase in the total number of factories in the Asia Pacific region, 26, and closer to the distance between the customers in southeast Asia.Almost all the big international ink manufacturers set up a branch in the asia-pacific region.In global sales of more than $90 million in 20 large ink manufacturers, there are six companies headquarters are located in Japan, and these big companies all have a certain scale production base in Asia Pacific.There are 3 companies based in China, they are yip's ink co., LTD., xiang chuan ink co., LTD., and le tong chemical co., LTD.
Other ink industry leader in the asia-pacific region is quite active.Such as rich and ChengWeiKe per group company in the Asia Pacific branch was established, and paint, printing ink group will mainly focus on the India market, and in 2005 acquired famous meters high ink manufacturers ink company in India.Despite the economic situation is less, but with the development of the printing industry in the asia-pacific region, the Japanese companies such as sakata inks are still achieved sales growth in 2012.Due to the influence of European debt crisis, there has been no strong growth for the asia-pacific region's economic, but developing countries, the demand for printing continues to grow, especially in the packaging and printing and packaging printing ink market.In front of the Asia Pacific market full of business opportunities, ink manufacturers are hoping through expanding capacity, increase the coverage and develop new products to attract more customers.As for China, although the government has published a series of restrictions, the competition between local suppliers is fierce, but the market is still very strong demand for ink products, while India ink to the development of the Middle East and Africa market makers, has a unique strategic position.
UV ink development potential is big
Except for gravure printing ink is bullish on the prospect of UV ink in the asia-pacific region growth potential is very big.A lot of ink manufacturers are said to develop cost-effective UV ink products, so that in this full of hope to win more market share in the market.And on the product development direction, for printing enterprises to save more energy of high sensitivity to UV ink will become the focus of attention.
As developing countries increasingly attention to environmental protection problems, especially in China and other countries introduced stricter environmental regulations, environmentally friendly printing ink market demand will grow further.Does not contain sheet-fed printing ink, high sensitivity of UV ink, water-based ink jet ink and water-based gravure printing ink for major companies such as open emerging Asia Pacific markets products provide a solid guarantee.

Enterprise sample printing proofing cost control

Cost saving is the enterprise management must be involved in one of the topics, enterprise sample printing proofing is how to save cost. First of all, we mainly from three aspects to analyze this question:
Pay attention to point a: use cost
The first is equipment purchase cost. The acquisition of a traditional proofing equipment, in addition to must provide supporting plate burning, printing equipment, skilled workers and sizable factory building is also essential. And the market at present a set of high-end inkjet digital proofing equipment, equipped with professional color management software. It into the cost according to the required width is different between 20000 ~ 70000 yuan. Second, the ultimate goal of proofing is in order to obtain the final satisfactory printing effect and add a printing process. As compared with traditional proofing and digital proofing, the latter is more show unique technical advantages. Traditional proofing process is complicated, to agree with formal printing process, you must first output film, reoccupy after staying PA version of sun proof machine output sample, once the sample obtained in conformity with the needs of customers when you need to start again, tend to cause more waste of materials.
Note 2: quality comparison
Traditional proofing is half manual operation mode, the output sample in ink quantity control and color master, etc., to a large extent depends on the level of proofing workers and experience. Is, therefore, a sample of traditional proof press play effect obtained is very unstable. According to the personage inside course of study introduces, in the past the traditional proofing, the same set of film take out proofing respectively, getting results are usually different. Imaging and digital printing because its been automated, so more stable than traditional proofing. Of course, here need to rule out some uncertain factors, such as the print head is stable, whether to need to change frequency forging, or resulting from the use of original ink printer plug.
Pay attention to point three: production efficiency
As the name implies, is produced per unit time than the benefits. On the speed of proofing, compared to the time needed for digital leaflet printing is basically a traditional proofing is 50%, the result is more obvious. If the puzzle, plate burning, the time required to print all neglected, unitary proofing action of the single traditional proofing, leaflet printing took an average of 30 to 40 minutes. And the large format printer from precision in the market at present, leaflet printing speed can be controlled within 20 minutes.
In short, enterprise sample printing proofing cost savings, pay attention not only to pay attention to the above 3 points, but also pay attention to other aspects. (Gold Printing Group)

Printing process after processing management knowledge

Post-press processing quality improvement of course from the pre-press, printing process, if can design and print before printing and after printing process communication, believe that the quality of the products will get more improvement. As people more and more high to the requirement of print quality and characteristics, in the past that only takes the pre-press, printing, and despise the status of the finishing machining has changed a lot. People are now generally recognized that for a high quality of books and periodicals, should not only have good plate-making technology, exquisite printing effect, but also has excellent binding appearance, to its design, content, bring out the best in each other, to have long use and preservation value. But because there are so many types of post-press processing products, the craft is complex, so the factors affecting the quality of products is more, quality management is difficult. Golden group believes the implementation of standardization, standardization of production, both the need of production control, is also a solid foundation for the large-scale mass production. One, must strengthen the staff quality consciousness Really qualified product depends on the joint efforts of all staff, only if all staff involved in the production, the quality consciousness and its technical level improved, and strictly in accordance with the standards of production, improve the quality of our products is guaranteed, enterprises can be in an impregnable position in the fierce market competition. To improve the staff's quality consciousness and the technical level, can through the way of education and training. 1. To make each staff recognize the important significance to improve the quality of products, make the enterprise quality policy faithfully implement. To make every employee realize profoundly, no quality, no job today, set up the quality of the employees is the idea of jobs and a strong sense of ownership. 2. To organize employee learning "quality standards", "quality manual", "responsibility", etc., let every employee knows their products should reach the quality standard of what is to know what kind of product is of quality, qualified products and unqualified products, through the "quality rewards and punishment method" to the staff's income directly linked to the quality of the product. 3. The technology education, encourage the staff to study technology. Under the organization of industry core quality of technical training for staff, organize the pilot process involved in writing, to some process parameters necessary to update and modify, to make it more close to the actual situation, to increase its authority. Ratio between department employees between extensive technology, selects the advanced machine team and advanced individual, to encourage employees to pay attention to foster and improve the technical quality of itself. Quality consciousness education can also through meetings and briefings in factory, workshops, as well as the method of establishing quality feedback bar inside the extensive publicity and education. Due to the printing enterprise is a service industry, so the quality of customer feedback to attention, organize relevant personnel to the discussion of the problem in time, and puts forward corresponding solutions and measures. Weekly meetings to carry out quality promotion, quality summary, in order to strengthen the vertical communication of quality issues. Quality consciousness education is a long-term, arduous quality management. Only the quality consciousness firmly rooted in the mind of every employee, quality will be a qualitative leap. Maximum limit arouse the enthusiasm of the staff on product quality, maximize each employee production technology level, this is the ultimate goal of quality consciousness education. Second, must strengthen the process control for machining plan As a printing enterprise production and management personnel, only familiar with the processing of products and our factory existing equipment conditions, the technical force, to formulate reasonable processing scheme, produce good products. 1. The production management staff after receive construction and press proof, must first understand the process requirement and the quality of materials used, make the galley proof and single construction and press proof review, confirm process can meet the requirements of construction of the established. 2. According to the workshop condition of existing equipment and technical force to develop detailed processing scheme, including order processing, process methods, materials, equipment and quality standards, and indicate the products in each working procedure production should pay attention to the quality of the main points, so as to enhance the personnel patrol force and effect, and thus better put an end to quality accidents, stability and improve the level of product quality. 3. Establish product process, quality files. With the development of technology, market, postpress is faced with more and more new techniques, new problems. Employees should not only familiar with the performance of the equipment is to understand the requirements of the new process, need to get to different process, different materials of products processing occurs when the records of all kinds of situation, and carries on the sample preservation, establish product process files. Through induction, consolidation and summary of process files, provide reliable guidance for production. Found in the inspection of quality problems and their solutions were carefully record, set up product quality files, find bottlenecks affecting the quality of products, targeted to solve, avoid to repeat the same mistake. Product quality file as production process, first-hand information, can avoid after little detours, achieve the virtuous cycle of the product quality. Three, scientific production scheduling equilibrium Debugging on the surface is to ensure that production on the rails, task completes, seems to be little relationship with the quality. Actually otherwise, the rational and scientific scheduling, to a large extent can guarantee the quality of products. Especially in now, under the condition of short cycle, high quality, product life cycle and quality between reserve can only rely on the rational and scientific production scheduling to solve. 1. For the same variety of products, the general is the first seal, first printed after installed, to print a relatively long drying time, make its full natural drying, avoid large amount of ink printing quality sticky dirty; Or a book after cutting paper incision caused continued expansion is not neat, printing ink, effect of foaming quality issues, etc. 2. For different products due at the same time, the complexity is different depending on the process to arrange production order. , for example, maturity and saddle stitching hardcover products at the same time, should as far as possible to arrange the hardcover products folding, guarantee the core has a longer binding time, in order to make the book cover natural dry, so as to ensure the finished book finalize the design effect is good, the book is not warp. 3. When the upper and lower process more closely with the production, scientific production scheduling can effectively avoid the production arrangement error caused by the worker and the crush phenomenon, can not only improve the efficiency, and avoids the turnip fast not to wash mud phenomenon.

How to choose the UV glue scrape the best effective width

Usually the stencil the effective width of between 20 mm to 30 mm. Based on the selection of optimal effective width substrates flatness, network map as resolution and other printing parameters such as glue scrape Angle, speed and ink types. On the substrates of flat/smooth printing of images of high resolution power, the effective width is small (less than 20 mm), high hard, using suitable ink for printing. On the substrates of uneven, rough, to increase the effective width (sometimes architectural 30 mm), lower hardness, low hardness and adhesive scraping the adaptation ability is poor, not excessive bending, can also use the middle on both sides of the hard soft three layer or double shave. Usually, the effective width increases, the printing speed and to increase the Angle. The stencil shape refers to the cross section of the stencil. Most of the shape of the stencil is simply blow square, other shapes of adhesive used in specific printing conditions. Hard rubber, for example, scraping the performance is better than soft glue scrape, but the poor adaptability of substrates. Use slanting blowing, printing edge easy deformation (similar to soft glue). There are three kinds of the shape of the stencil printing workers can choose: party (or square edge blowing), various inclined and round shave (horn). Party has a wide applicable scope, can provide the largest printing pressure, printing Angle on effective width. Oblique blow to provide maximum flexibility, reduce printing pressure, printing Angle smaller than set point. Round the adaptability of the worst, with minimal printing pressure, printing Angle can be set freely (often is the smallest Angle). These reasons will influence the amount of ink. Blade is to complete the stencil play a important part of the four major functions. Under the control of sharpness is originally the stencil ink amount of a factor. Sharp blade provides the smallest amount under ink and the fine image. Blunt round blade, ink quantity increase, at the same time will affect the fine degree of color and lines. When printing large and simple design with transparent oil, color and line fine degree of the change is not obvious. And fine lines and four color printing network, with a translucent (UV) and transparent ink, you will soon find the deformation of the blade to compare printing first and the last one, can be determined when the stencil should be polished.

The sustainable green printing development well in North America

With green environmental protection has become a kind of fashion, the printing industry of the sustainable development of the green claims and enterprise operation also have sprung up. But not all environmental policies to achieve the ideal effect, in the complex market environment, the enterprise also seems to be difficult to find a suitable strategic partners to help them achieve sustainable development. In order to eliminate these the confusion of the enterprise, the industry leader in the environmental protection organization Canopy (Canopy) has issued a "green printing leadership report, aims to help companies find accord with the requirements of the sustainable development of the printing service provider. Canopy organization of the report provides an introduction to the field of commercial printing commonly used method of sustainable development, and also introduces some will help printing enterprise in the fierce market competition of tips. Forest protection measures It is widely believed that "the medium is the message", and for those who have done better on the green environmental protection enterprises, the paper is a very important medium. Enterprise brand printing plant, therefore, not only to serve the environmental footprint of a significant impact, but also can help the sustainable development goal. At present, the canopy is helping more than 700 large enterprises to improve their environmental performance, and clearly north American printing enterprise for the success of the work plays an important role. In addition, because a lot of printing enterprise focus is different, so it's hard to pick out the best that one. However, in order to help his partner, canopy group also found some leading printing on green environmental protection enterprises. Because in the carbon footprint of printing enterprise, there are 50% ~ 80% from its use of paper, so they pay special attention to the environmental protection in the report the use of paper and forest protection. The green printing leadership report summarizes some methods will help printing enterprise to protect endangered forests, rather than to any form of rankings. A total of 36 printing enterprise involved in the investigation, including three on the north American sales list of the top five companies, they respectively when nally, cape graphic and transcontinental printing company. Will help printing enterprise to protect the forest measures mainly include: the more powerful the paper procurement policy, key protected ancient and endangered forests; Actively encourage suppliers and canopy environmental groups to promote forest protection; Set the paper recycling and using environmental protection paper targets and time frames; Support innovative solutions, such as using paper made of straw, not made of wood paper; Detailed their own sustainable development plans and measures. Five ways to reduce carbon emissions While 94% of respondents said they had the sustainable development of appropriate policies, but less than half the people will be released these policies to their own company's website. Everywhere in a world filled with green claim, a brand must have the ability to check the print service provider's sustainable development policy, to ensure its sustainable development goal in line with their own. Everything in the development and changes, while the environmental policies should also be kept advancing with The Times, in the process of establishing and solicit opinions of the independent environmental protection organization, to ensure that it and enterprises is beneficial to the environment. Other highlights include in the report: 70% of respondents said they tend to use by the FSC certification of paper; 61% of companies to develop the forest protection policies; 52% of respondents support use with low toxicity cleaner bleaching of paper; 79% of respondents can provide 100% recycled paper; 91% of respondents can teach customers aware of the benefits of using recycled paper. Have the brand of leadership have the opportunity to influence and support their print service providers in the sustainable development of environment aspects to make greater progress. Every printing materials, an enterprise is a propaganda of the brand, also can promote its to greener and more responsible printing practice development. To become a leader in sustainable development, the enterprise can through the following five ways to reduce the carbon paper, promote the green printing, protection of forest resources: encourage printing service providers with the help of the canopy and other nonprofit environmental organization to develop or upgrade their own environmental policy; To ensure that the print service providers carbon footprint to reach its commitment to the environmental protection requirements, at the same time avoid the use of paper made of wood from the forest of the protected; Suggested that the print service providers use 100% recyclable paper or toilet paper, and let the customer know to use these paper environmental and commercial benefits; Suggest printing service provider to open their own environmental policy and sustainable development goals on a regular basis; For printing service provider organizations involved in canopy green leadership annual survey, each other and share their successful experience, promote green printing continuous development.

How to reduce the cost of printing enterprise color printing?

How to reduce the cost of color printing in the printing has always been a printing enterprise thoughtful questions. Here, the gold group to introduce you to a good way to save costs as follows: 1. How many used to comprehensive consideration of the number of the specifications of the printing press (including the largest printing format and minimum printing format), number of printing, the printing paper price and other factors. Because although increases spell number can reduce the number of printing, but will increase the cost of production of film, increase the difficulties of the debugging before printing ink and alignment, the loss of testing-run paper increase. As the total printing amount is small, increase spell number often does not conform to the economic benefits. 2. If the shape of the product packaging is not a rectangle, so a single spell or more packaging side by side tends to cause the waste of paper, in this case to consider whether two or more products can be cross together, sometimes also need to adjust the location of the box cover on the carton, do more compact realignment. In order to achieve the purpose of saving paper. 3. The rules in the multicolor printing line is indispensable, rule line usually use reticle, and is placed on board outside the location of the sizes of finished product. In the case of paper wide tension, can change the reticle to t line, placed close to the finished product. If the dimension of a paper is very nervous, or for post-press processing is convenient, used for printing paper size just the size of the finished product, can also be placed in the finished product will rule line will be glued to the inside, the position of the folded inside, or put custom line will be the location of the die cutting off.

Some of the considerations about the pearl paper printing

Pearl paper composition is the same as the ordinary whiteboard paper, namely by the underlying fiber, filler and surface coating of three parts. Unlike ordinary whiteboard paper has formed in its surface coating pearl effect of particles. The particles by the titanium dioxide (or other metal oxide) and mica particles, mica particles becomes coated with titanium dioxide (or other metal oxide) and form, the structure, thin sheet. The characteristics of the pearl paper: (1) the low surface energy, the adsorption properties of the ink (2) the surface of the pearl effect is easy to be damaged Pearl paper printing often have problems (1) ink adhesion and dry printing field, low density, small network loss, as a result of poor, dry slow, opposite easy sticky dirty, easy to scratch and so on. (2) the pearl effect is easy to lose, easy to form the white dots, hair flower, the phenomenon such as crease. Pearl of the offset printing paper to note: 1. Process design (1) design plate making Because the pearl paper mainly embodies the paper pearl luxuriant effect, if the printing ink has a very large area, a couldn't reflect the paper pearl effect, second paper pearl effect through the ink layer has been greatly weakened. So, we should be in the design process according to the characteristics of the pearl paper printing design to avoid a large area of the ground. General design pattern, a few simple lines, words, can highlight the focus of the package content, can show the paper again luxuriant effect. (2) the production process As a result of the pearl paper pearl particles easily broken, semi-finished products can't afford to turn repeated sequence, friction, so the production process route should be short, as far as possible to cancel some unnecessary process, especially those who participate in more links by hand. To be a printed without twice without screen printing offset printing, can not even light of offline glazing, certainly not glazing resolute don't polish, because glazing will greatly weaken the pearl paper pearl effect. 2. Printing There are three kinds of printing ink can be used in the pearl paper, on the basis of their print effect is good or bad, in order: the UV printing ink, the printing ink and ordinary ink absorbent paper.

On-demand printing of three kinds of mode and development trend

On-demand printing supplier capacity has increased significantly in recent years, in addition to have more advanced printing equipment, they can provide customers with services have become more abundant. In addition to the ordinary black and white and color templates, they can also at a lower cost to produce different number of color hardcover book.
Through the use of electronic data interchange (EDI) orders and billing systems, on-demand printing enterprises can simplify the process of customers and cooperation, and can according to customer's requirement would be personalized products to clients.
The current economic environment and technology changes prompted the publishing industry to speed up the acceptance rate of on-demand printing patterns. With fewer long printing order, press should aware to invest in new media and digital transmission technology.
Most on-demand printing service providers are according to the different business model to provide service for the customer. In general there are three main kinds, respectively is: according to the order of printing, the short version of the drop shipping and the short version printing. Compared with the traditional offset printing, the business model surface look more expensive, but as long as the understanding that you will be able to find it with the benefits. The most important thing is to see how you measure the real cost and value of each service.
No matter what kind of business model, the customer must provide meet certain standards of digital files for printing. According to the different business model, these live a boot cost will by providing on-demand printing printing enterprise all or part of the service.
According to the order of printing is by far the most powerful at the same time also is one of the most flexible business model, but not all of the print service providers can provide the service. Using the business model of printing service providers to offer clients an arbitrary number of printing services, ranging from one to several hundred, but also is responsible for printing the finished product to the terminal consumers. Customers can order automatically by the electronic data interchange system and ordered products printing enterprise to ensure that consumers will not out of stock.
In a short version of the drop shipping business mode, the printing service providers tend to live a short version of the 1500, and will ship it to the distributor or wholesaler.
In a short version of the printing business mode, printing service supply chamber of commerce in 1000 ~ 1500 short version live, and to the customer's warehouse.
Business model characteristics
According to the order of printing service categories of business models, the most widely and most popular with publishing enterprises. The current state of the economy and the people of electronic media, make the business model has become more attractive. Because the customer does not need to develop a plan of printing, don't have to worry about the backlog of inventory, even will not be lost because of shortage of the order. Considering the inventory, packaging, shipping, rework, and other costs, according to the order of printing cost is not higher than the traditional offset printing. In addition, the current printing enterprise in rotary offset press printed on the long version live profit space, generally between 1% ~ 2%, and the short version of the profit space of digital printing can reach 30% ~ 40%.
For those who have not set up branches in all parts of the world's international publishers, the short version of drop shipping is a very good choice. Press the world bank, for example, they mainly through distributors and other agents to his published works are sold to all over the world. If you're in the Sahara desert in Africa published a book, the reader can be in the nearest place for on-demand printing, it can save a lot of cost. At present, in Asia, Africa and other countries new print-on-demand enterprises are promoting this kind of business model. Like to order printing mode, this kind of business model for printing enterprise profit margins are far higher than that of rotary offset printing long version, and more likely to be accepted by the press.
Short version printing business model with a short version of the drop shipping are very similar, the only difference is that its finished goods to be sent to the printing press in the warehouse, and the publishing house is responsible for the distribution. This kind of business model has the advantage of high efficiency, as long as the production process smoothly and digital documents conform to the requirements, can replenish inventories at faster than traditional printing speed.
The current development direction
The current print-on-demand three kinds of different business models. Some publishers have adopted pure on-demand printing mode and warehousing, stripped of their traditional business. Some publishers are considering to reduce the size of the product classification, in order to reduce the cost and risk, improve the print listed speed. Also some press considering to introduce their own digital printing equipment, because after all, digital printing can reach 30% ~ 40% profit space, and use your own equipment to print more cost can be saved in the future.
Especially according to the order of printing mode, can minimize the investment risk, eliminate complex amount estimation and printing planning work, and the customer only need to pay out of that part of the actual sales of the product inventory costs. This can greatly reduce the risk of loss due to shortage of orders.
Provide consumers with the content they need is the one of the main trend of the publishing industry. All publishing companies should make an effort to understand the needs of customers, and through some may cause printing demand but will not affect the content value of new media transfer their products to the customer. As a result, they have to find ways to reduce the cost of traditional publishing model, and the limited funds to the more valuable content in the process of development. (Gold Printing Group)

How to better the print work done

The preparing work before, plate burning
In front of the plate burning, PS version must be thorough, carefully check, make sure that the PS version of the surface is smooth, level off, there is no dirt, scratches, etc. In addition, the PS version of the storage environment temperature and humidity should be appropriate, avoid direct exposure to the air, and the storage time not too long. In addition, must be kept clean neat, pervious to light glass plate burning machine (usually use alcohol to wipe), printing film, no dirty.
(1) adjusting exposure
First of all, took a piece from the PS version of side length is 100 mm small pieces as test material, and then blank LiuSuanZhi spread on it, after the exposure test, will take off, LiuSuanZhi observation PS any traces on the surface, and then adjust the exposure time exposure again, until it is concluded that the standard of exposure time.
(2) ensure the enhancement effect
Solution concentration, developing temperature and developing time are the main factors influencing the imaging effect. The higher solution concentration, developing the higher the temperature, the longer the developing time, the surface of the PS version of photosensitive resin and the reaction of developer more fully, the degree of exposure of dissolved the more thoroughly, but also can create outlets contraction, or even loss of small branches.
(3) repair the PS version
After finish development work, carefully check the PS version of the graphic and blank section, the existence of dirty point areas to repair in time. In the process of plate burning, film edge will leave a mark in the surface of PS version, so also want to repair these tracks. PS version after the repair, need retouching cream quick rinse with water, rinse when adopting the way from inside to outside, to exempt the version of the paste was rushed to the graphic part.
(4) to protect good plate
In order to protect the sun good plate, coated with a layer of the plate surface hydrophilic rubber protection, to prevent the oxidation of the blank part is. As far as possible when glue make gum liquid coating, bao hou uniform scratch plate layout and avoid hard objects. At the same time, pay attention to bask in good plate in the clean and avoid light place.
(5) check the quality of the plate
First, check the actual situation of a node with a magnifying glass. If site last as, full, 2% of small branches, 3% of the points clear, intermediate node increases obviously, dark color does not appear paste version phenomenon, concluded plate standard quality. Then, check the graphic location on the surface of the plate, diao mouth and pulling the pin position is accurate, the plate layout whether there is a crease, graphic is complete. The existence of abnormal areas to handle in time. (Gold Printing Group)

Introduction to common problems in the gift box gluing process

In the process of packaging products, such as glue gift boxes, always easy to appear the following questions:
After brushing glue quantity is too thick to pressing glue overflow, both affected the product is beautiful, but also prone to mutual adhesion between boxes. If this situation happened after the brush glue should be air buy 2 ~ 5 minutes, wait for after adhesive is a bit dry pressing again. Brush glue too thin, and the drying time is too long, and can lead to poor adhesion fastness, and sometimes there will be can't glue at all.
Have no pressing or pressure is too small, will cause adhesive products after bounce off automatically, this kind of situation mainly for large stiffness of the product, so pressing at least half an hour, because there are a lot of adhesive is a type of adhesive contact, so you have to make the two glued surface, effective pressure in unit time, if the viscous force is less than at the beginning of elastic products, products will bounce off, so the general products are required to have a 0.5 hour press time.
Some manufacturers in order to saving the cost of raw materials with complex film adhesive and box or blended with white glue to use relatively large amounts of water to dilute the adhesive, thus resulting in the insufficient adhesive fastness, as well as on the membrane, the phenomenon of the poor adhesion. This kind of situation is very dangerous, is also in violation of the principles and process of binding.
Packing box degumming phenomenon in the winter. This is mainly because some adhesive of low temperature resistant performance is not good. Below 5 ℃, the surface of the adhesive will lose activity, and led to the decrease of the sticky relay or disappear. But on a hot summer day, stick good packaging will be out in the warehouse or transportation trunk, degumming there sprang open. This is mainly because of this kind of adhesive high temperature resistant performance is not good, at 50 ℃ ~ 60 ℃ temperatures of the sub tender, strength decreases, resulting in packing box come unglued.
Packing box at the beginning of the taped (generally) for half a month time bonding effect is very good, but with the extension of time, the phenomenon of degumming box will appear. This is mainly because adhesive bonding of persistent performance is poor, because most add some plasticizers in adhesive, with the extension of time, resulting in rubber plasticizer to paper-based migration harden, crisp so that products come unglued. On the other hand because the adhesive contains plenty of unsaturated bond, cause product aging resistance is not good storage period extend film brittle, make the product come unglued.
If the warehouse is very wet, so long time storage in it, not only the product of the humidity will exceed bid, and the product also can appear come unglued. This is mainly because the product to absorb moisture, and the water resistant performance of the adhesive itself has bad, leading to a rubber soft produces delaminating. (Gold Printing Group)

Brazilian publishing experience the biggest decline in 10 years

According to the Brazilian economy research foundation (FIPE) released the latest statistics show that Brazilian publisher in revenue of $2.439 billion last year, more than $2011 in 2.147 billion grew by 3.04%, considering the inflation factor (5.84%), Brazil's book market shrank 2.64% in real terms. This is also the industry experienced the biggest drop since 2002.
The Brazilian government procurement budget is to reduce the book market in Brazil in 2012, a major reason for poor performance. The Brazilian government last year purchased $644000 worth of books, was down more than 10.4% in 2011.
Sales market is actually growing, but not enough to offset the decline in government procurement budget. In 2012, Brazilian publisher sales were $1.795 billion, more than $2011 in 1.688 billion grew by 0.49%, but that didn't make any sense. The book market sales in Brazil since 2008 there has been no real growth. Government procurement in the publisher and the proportion of income is 26.4%, more than 28.7% in 2011 fell slightly. On the number of it, Brazil has sold 268.6 million copies in 2012, more than 284 million copies in 2011 dropped by 5.43%. Among them, the publishers to sell 166.4 million copies of the government's books, was down more than 10% in 2011.
Publishers to worry about the other problem is publishing the continued volatility of prices, because it is influenced by tax policies and government procurement budget is the largest. Grew by 12.46% in 2012, the average price of publishers, this means that the average price of books during the period of 2011 ~ 2012 grew by 6.25% in real terms.
The average price of mentioned here refers to the amount of gross income divided by total sales in the industry and the data, and can't really reflect the price movements of book. In fact, Brazil's economy research foundation estimates that Brazil's book prices have fallen by 41% since 2004. (Gold Printing Group)

A brief overview of common printing security hidden danger

We summarized the common printing a safety hazard:
1, the safe hidden trouble that bad operating habits
For all the security hidden danger, harm is the most powerful, the concealment of the at the same time it also is the highest, overcome index is the most difficult. More than 90% of the operator is due to the operation is not carried out in accordance with the requirements in the process of operation that caused the accident. Here we will list some common bad habits, so that a wake-up call for everyone.
A. plate (rubber cloth) used to operate: general rotary press plate is more, the operator is used to hang version of two or more groups at the same time, in order to save time, improve work efficiency. Sheet-fed offset press plate also have this kind of phenomenon. Interim plate, in order to speed up the progress, and the teacher is to help, that is one version, one point switch. Safe hidden trouble, plate (rubber cloth), if two or more people operate at the same time, a bit not concentrating, hand skid or unexpected machine problems, it is easy to finger involved, cause personal injury.
Preventive measures:
(1) version of work by one operator, with the hand gently knead plate towing pin and gasket, make sure that pages are not scratch and liner level off, (2) the plate one thousand mistakes or meet "electricity", hand to loosening, don't hold the plate, will not have much loss, if hold, will cause other accidents.
(3) the situation is different for all kinds of machines. If you really need to use hand push plate, can put some talcum powder on the layout, the prevention of accidents.
2. Spade ink used to operate, due to the need of distributing, the operator used with ink shovel movement back and forth on the ink roller, distributing, add ink or shoveled away excess ink ink roller. Safe hidden trouble, when in high speed operation, this belongs to the frequent accidents of dangerous operation, once the ink blade Angle pin offset or operation of the ink shovel met series of ink roller surface uneven, ink shovel will be involved in the main series of ink roll and rubber roll and accident, between light scratch plate or rubber roller, or rolling bad blanket or drum, even in the drawing ink shovel the accidents caused by the controls in a flash.
Preventive measures:
(1) the first thing to heel, focused, hold the ink scraper, don't look in all directions.
(2) find print ink quantity is not enough and must be manually add ink, ink scraper must hold in the hand, and to raise the little ink roller, after waiting for the roller stopped again.
(3) to shovel the ink, the ink shovel to, which is based on the main series of ink roller, conveniently depend on the rubber roller, an impending, ink scraper with bunch of ink roller contact Angle is not less than 45 °.
3. In addition to the dirty habits operation: rotary press and sheet-fed offset printing presses, often appear leather or rubber roller ink, paper, cast in plate picture and text part of the phenomenon. Affect the quality of the product. At this point, the operator is often used in the machine is running to remove dirty fingers.
A safety hazard: this belongs to the illegal operation of dangerous operations, resulting in the printing of the accident. Under the condition of the high speed machine operators to get dirty point location and erasure, available time is quite short, and the strength not wipe off, only to start early, take strong to stick it on the plate dirty point on the graphic (or ink roller) removed. A slight mistake, finger are likely to enter the plate cylinder space. If it is hung up without relying on the operation, is likely to be brought into the cylinder with one hand, the accident caused by the rolling hand.
Preventive measures:
(1) a week regular inspection of the machine all the safety insurance device and main motor brake mechanism. Make sure the machine sensitive, reliable, and found that the problem timely repair.
(2) the operation is to focus, not suspended operations, wipe dirty, palms must rely on between the plate cylinder and rubber drum of the shaft, or on the water roller protection safety hood, pay special attention to the palm relying on the force should be greater than the force of finger wipe dirty point.
(3) if the dirty point much effect on printing, should stop check and timely replacement of rubber roller or paper, ink, fundamentally solve the problem. In the daily production, must establish the idea of safety first, cultivate good habits of operation, or in the event of accident, the product quality and economic benefit etc. Everything will be impossible. So, bad operation habits is the biggest killer of safe hidden trouble. (Gold Printing Group)

The influence of offset printing ink balance and quality

Lithography is the use of the principle of oil and water don't mix, plate graphic department can oil-wet hydrophobic, gap department water before with hydrophilic oleophobic selective adsorption. Another characteristic is using indirect printing, offset printing using dot color way for color copy. Offset printing ink sure if appropriate, in the normal transfer of imprinting, inky depth, color correct, print dry and sticky dirty, etc is very important. Can accurately grasp and control the ink balance, therefore, is to ensure that the print quality not disorderly of hub. As a high-tech printing workers, should not only know the ink balance relationship, more master ink balance technology and essentials should be polished.
Ink balance refers to the certain and the printing pressure, printing speed adjust the supply of education version liquid, emulsion to make the ink contains education version after the volume of the proportional control in 15% ~ 26%, and form a level slightly water-in-oil (W/O) emulsion inks, with minimal amount of feed liquid on the plate printing ink.
Ink balance is the most important thing in education version control fluid and ink. Education version fluid is composed of water and surfactant, education version fluid can be fully wetting layout, cleaning ability and not disorderly of pH value, ensure layout doesn't dirty.
1) the role of education version fluid
(1) in the department of plate gap formation water film on average, in order to prevent the ink on the graphic to open branch of infiltration, to prevent dirty version.
(2) using the education version in the liquid electrolyte with bare metal versions due to abrasion produces chemical reaction, constantly create new layer, maintain layout department of hydrophilic gaps.
(3) control the temperature of the layout of printing ink. Because the new printing presses faster and faster, with print speed too fast will make the ink in the high-speed transmission temperature, the activity of the ink is increased, which resulted in increased network. So puts forward new requirements for education version fluid high-speed machine, namely the education version fluid in contact with the ink forme roller through the layout, can reduce the temperature of the ink roller and ink.
(4) do not make by larger or smaller. Education version with not disorderly plate is required by department and the function of the relative position vacancy department, guarantee in the whole process of printing, graphic neither to expand or narrow.
Ink generally composed of pigment, filler, links and auxiliary additives, selection of ink should be fully considered when ink rheology function and optical function.
Ink rheology function to determine whether the ink has good printing function of main basis. Ink rheology function mainly depends on ink link, of course, also can be regulated by the appropriate auxiliary additives. Ink rheology function evaluation can be reflected through the main function of ink rheology indexes, namely, ink viscosity, viscosity, thixotropy, yield, viscoelastic and activity and so on. In practical production, only grasp the function index, to be familiar with various types of ink printing property, so as to achieve the purpose of the selection to meet the requirements of printing ink.
Print must exist at the same time, surface printing ink and water balance, the purpose is to keep both graphic printing area maximum ink quantity, make bright inky, saturated, points clear bright and clean, but also to keep the printing area clean and tidy, which requires attention to adjust the volume of water and ink in the produce of the relationship.
In printing, the printing quality of imprinting inky depth, in addition to related to the amount of the ink ink fountain, also directly affected by the water supply and layout of ink balance. When the layout of water increases, the imprinting inky dodge becomes shallow gradually. Conversely, reducing water supply section water, imprinted ink is relatively deep than the original. So, more or less ink quantity and layout of water supply will change imprinting inky depth. In the printing process, should be adjusted according to actual situation. Should not rely on to reduce the water supply to progress as required, because the water is too small, loss of balance of ink, easy to make dirty with the vacancy department.
But the need to prevent water on the big ink. When the moisture of excessive, inky becomes shallow, must have to actual situation, mistakenly assume that ink quantity is little, not to reduce the water supply, but to frequent increase in the volume of ink. Ruth reciprocating to increase water supply for ink, resulting in a vicious cycle, the ultimate water ink big all ills, printing from otherwise normal operations.
Experienced printing workers, in actual production, often under the condition of can't afford to ensure plate dirty, control the water supply in the range of as small as possible, and the amount of water and ink is not disorderly state, so it can ensure the printing quality before and after the inky depth is consistent and printing work. Advocate the practice of using water is small, the ink thickness, the water of the little finger is conditional on the level of vacancy layout department doesn't dirty minimum water; The so-called ink thickness, is built on the basis of water small, water ink caused by excessive emulsification, thick ink layer is impossible.
