With the continuous development of the times, more and more packaging and printing processes are available for label processors in China. Manufacturers can take advantage of their existing technology and equipment, choose a relatively mature technology, and easily enter the current field of miniaturized label printing. Today, I will take you to understand the relevant content.

The area of ​​narrow label printing in the Asia-Pacific region is dominated by letterpress printing technology. There are many similarities between letterpress printing and offset printing technology in terms of operating methods, such as adjusting the amount of ink through adjusting screws. Modern letterpress printing presses are also the same as offset printing presses, which are also controlled by computers. In this area, letterpress plate making is not a big problem, and most letterpress printing machines can use flat die cutting. Flat die-cutting is also a kind of die-cutting technology with a high popularity rate in China.

The staff who originally engaged in sheet-fed offset printing technology can also use their existing skills to directly engage in narrow web offset printing, continue to use the same plate material, the same pre-press process, and even the same automatic preset device for ink volume . This alone is not enough. They must master some new technologies, especially how to handle UV curing inks and how to maintain registration on the rotary equipment. Of course, many automated tools can complete these settings.

Gravure printing is also very useful in the field of narrow label printing. Some offset and flexographic printing presses have been equipped with gravure sheets that can be directly printed with metallic ink or adhesive.

Similarly, staff who are familiar with screen printing can quickly get into the field of narrow web printing. They can continue to use multi-color narrow web screen printing machines, or on letterpress printing machines, flexographic printing, or offset printing. Add UV screen printing sheet on web printing machine

If it is from embossing, silk brushing, offset printing or gravure printing directly to flexographic printing, the staff must learn new skills. Invariably, the essence of printing is the same. Judging from the experience in Europe and North America, as long as you can purchase high-quality plates, inks and circular die-cutting tools, flexographic printing technology is still easy to master.
