As we all know, about 180 units of flexographic printing machines have been introduced in the country, and dozens of units of flexographic printing machines have also been sold at the same time. Among the hot topics that people discussed together, in the investigation and analysis of flexo printer users, we were pleasantly surprised to find that machine-type flexo printing machines include both imported and domestic machines. Currently, they have occupied an important place in the printing of beer labels and are flexible. The proportion of printing has increased year by year. Flexo printing machine users printed beer labels also achieved better economic benefits.
In this case we can first obtain proofs from beer using flexographic prints. At present, the national beer industry ranks among the top several big beer groups. For instance, Tsingtao Beer Group, Yanjing Beer Group, China Resources Beer Group and some other beer labels are processed by flexo printing machines. Some lesser-scale breweries include wholly-owned enterprises such as Shanghai's Suntory, Libo’s Huiquan in Fujian, Zhejiang’s Qianjiang, Heilongjiang’s New Samsung, and Hainan’s Lijia. "The Yellow River" of Lanzhou, etc., has a very large proportion of beer labels processed by flexo printing machines, and individual ones are all processed by flexo printing machines.
In addition, we can also analyze the sales of flexo presses that process beer labels in recent years. Wherein, when the original flexographic printing machine was originally purchased, the product was oriented to other packaging products, such as cigarette packs, but later it brought a large number of orders for beer labels. This example is based on social printing plants. Some printing companies used other printing methods to print beer labels, and then turned to flexographic printing machines (for technological innovations). Examples of such printing are the printing plants of the brewery and social independent printing plants. Of course, flexo presses are also subscribed by companies that specialize in producing beer labels. When printing beer labels at the same time, the flexo machine's operating rate is also better than the national average.
Generally speaking, we cannot help asking why the flexo press has been successfully used in the beer label industry. We believe that this is precisely because the advantages of the flexo press have been fully utilized in processing beer labels.
In general, the paper used for beer labels is almost 70-80 grams of coated paper or vacuum ejected aluminum paper. At present, the web of this kind of material is easily available, and its performance and quality are also good. The beer labels are mostly in color (field) and line text versions. Except for certain high-line, high-gloss, or out-of-print flexo printers that have a certain degree of difficulty, it can be said that most beer labels are suitable for flexographic printing. At the same time, the number of batches of general beer labels is relatively large, and one or two million units are considered small orders, which can fully meet the “required amount of flexographic printing†when the industry insiders argued. The special requirements of the beer label in use, such as anti-warping, dry friction resistance, wet abrasion resistance, water resistance, alkali resistance solution, etc., can be easily achieved on a flexographic printer.
The advantages of the flexo press mainly include the following points:
1. The flexographic printing is mainly carried by the anilox roller. The thickness of the ink layer provided by the anilox roller is determined by the number of lines of the anilox roller and the amount of ink loaded, so the flexo and gravure has a common advantage. Chromatic aberration is controlled to a minimum. The consistent impression of the flexo printer users is that as long as the formula of the ink is unchanged and the speed of starting is constant, the ink color of the printed product can basically remain the same.
2. The inks used in flexographic printing are mainly low-viscosity, fast-drying, water-based inks, which can be very firmly printed on coated paper and vacuum-sprayed aluminum paper. In addition, general machine type flexographic machines are equipped with a flip frame (can be used for back coating), UV coating, slitting, slitting, and even line cutting, so that the flexographic printing machine can be used at a high speed of 100 mm/min. The finished product with a beer label or a semi-finished product with only differential die cutting has high efficiency and stable quality.
3, water-based ink and the use of low-line anilox roller printing spot color, especially the printing of gold and silver ink, the effect is far better than the offset printing, in recent years, the flexible version of the network cable version of the technology has developed rapidly, especially the emergence of digital Direct plate making makes the quality of the flexo screen version greatly improved. It has become possible to reproduce 2-95% of outlets under 175 lines/inch. It is worth mentioning that some of the recent machine-type flexo presses are different from the previous 6+1 or 7+1 type, and use multiple UV curing units or even full-UV flexo machines, so that more exquisite network cable products can be obtained. . The cured UV prints are more easily tested for various properties. It is recommended that the flexo machine user may wish to try something when printing high-end beer labels. 4. In the past, people often complained about the high cost of flexo plate making, but at present, with the increase in the number of domestic plate making companies, the level of plate making is getting higher and higher, prices are decreasing, and services are more thoughtful. Compared with gravure platemaking, flexographic platemaking costs slightly lower, while its short production cycle and convenient transportation, making flexographic printing more flexible than the same impression.
5, there is an advantage of flexographic printing, that is, the use of water-based ink and UV ink non-toxic and non-polluting, while safe, non-flammable, and better protection of the production plant operators have a good working environment.
We believe that the advantages of flexographic printing in the beer label industry will be further developed. It is also believed that flexographic printing will have a broader prospect in China. (Text / Liang Xinyu) ("Tobacco wine packaging album")
