Printing and Technology (I)

Digital, information and wisdom have completely changed the way of printing, communication and production. We must not only seek faster, better, and more efficient production in our standard position, but also integrate it into other communication media to make wider use of text graphics and video information. , Creating more value in the field of multi-media, so that exquisitely printed information files, become an important part of business and communication operations. Printing media may shrink but never disappear, because human beings always have a need for visual senses, and printing technology has become a high-tech production. Today, it is not at the top. More places will be applied in the future. It is just how we face it. , respond to it. However, the basic data of manufacturers participating in this year try to use the concept of XML, Postscript File combined with Database, single input information file (One input) and multiple output (Many output) for application.
First, automatic design and smoother production process The rapid progress of computer hardware and software, appearing in the memory capacity and calculation speed has been ten times, one hundred times the growth, repeat the action as long as the program and the amount of change, the computer will be able to simulate people The creation of instructions, such as going back, adding shadows, changing the bottom map, as long as there are proofs and action processes, the artificial intelligence of the computer software can respond to the operation, not having to manually repeat operations each time, both fast and labor-saving, and there is no personal technology Difference in height. The computer will reach the level of human intelligence in language input, OCR byte identification, as long as people can understand to enter, greatly reducing the burden on the input. Image capture equipment from digital cameras, mobile phones to scanners, video recorders, sources more convenient and diverse, intelligent translation, will make the village more knowledge and information exchange more frequent, more barrier-free, increased printing and distribution opportunities. With the development of cross-platform and cross-media file formats such as PDF and XML, it is very helpful for the use of communication processes and automatic production. The use of automated production processes will certainly lead to labor savings and sometimes even to unmanned production.
Second, the network application makes the printing and communication methods and technologies change. Due to the improvement of the network bandwidth and the advancement of file compression technology, the limitation of the file format is reduced, and the faster and more convenient internal network communication and external Internet applications are currently used. Subsidiary web-engraving printing will become remote proofing and long-distance decentralized printing. The application of network technology will dramatically change the printing market and ecology. In the future, only a small number of publishing houses will have warehouses, only server publications and sales mechanisms, and use lock-lock technology to print and print on-demand printing units as required, or After the customer prints the file, the file is automatically hidden. At this time, the printing industry will only make the page file and manage the information. Printing and printing is the work of local use or remote transmission of a small amount of output. Business personnel do not need to bring catalogues to run in the world's exhibition venues. As long as they print in local areas, users pay the royalties for buying books, go home to export their own products, or commission specialized stores to print and bind books.
Third, a single information file, a variety of output applications input keyboard, voice, digital board, digital cameras, scanners and computer created text, graphics (Computer Graphic), video and voice information, integrated into a high resolution can be made large As for the print files for the screen, in addition to printed matter and large posters, other web pages and CD electronic media can continue to use these page files. However, these electronic files are often inferior to the print media, so the printing industry must realize that I am the author and manager of the page information, and I have more room for survival.
Fourth, the change of lithography Printing is the most widely used format, is in a downward trend, but based on efficiency, quality and cost, Pingyin is still in the packaging, publishing and commercial printing short, medium and long version of the main layout . The widespread use of CTP makes it advantageous in terms of cost and engineering. It can be made on DI machines, spanning prepress, printing and even processing stages. In the future, under nanotechnology, the single-fluid printing of water-free general PS plate will make the quality of the offset printing quality more competitive, and the printing density and hue will improve, so that simple device technology will be able to apply the offset printing freely. There are quality standards. CIP4 will reduce print preparation time and print color reproduction more accurately. In terms of packaging and sheet metal printing, there is an ultra-compressed air-cushioned blanket that can print 1.5-mm-thick corrugated sheets without the need for pick-up applications. The suite of digital tracking controls that have been used and the future automatic detection of water supply and ink supply compensation will provide a more logical control of the quality of the typographic machine.
After the digital control servo motor is widely used, the structure and control of the typographic printing machine will be more simple. The servo motor not only replaces the crank and the cam in the printing unit or the single cylinder drive to make the elastic reciprocating action, but also conforms to the speed and the printing change. Machine design, manufacture and use are simpler, and inspection and maintenance are more convenient. If printing pressure is reduced, the press structure will be thinner and lighter. Printing presses will pursue faster job change speeds, rather than absolute press speeds, unless it is a large wheel press or commercial rotary press.
The connection processing of the typography machine will be more important, which can greatly increase the added value of production, including the original glazing, extinction, and the use of ceramic micro-acupuncture roller liquid supply, replacing the roller gap and the pressure adjustment type, and also the environmental protection requirements. , The glazing method that can be deinked and the paper can be dissolved and dispersed to meet the standard. The use of a thin plate-type guillotine knife for die cutting on a typographic machine is a very valuable process. Varying imprints such as serial numbers, bar codes, and inkjet lines break the frame of the typographic plate. Chrysanthemum four minicomputers still have a strong and small market value, especially the low price of CTP's small-size high-speed platemaking and polyester version substrates, which shows the flexibility of such machines.
Fifth, the growth and decline of gravure and flexo Because of environmental protection appeal, film or synthetic leather and other materials must be changed to water-based ink, so gravure electronic engraving and mature solvent-based ink, but also to use more shallow corrosion of the ink hole is more favorable Therefore, the image of the electronic gravure cylinder to corrode depressions may be due to the printing of aqueous ink. Flexo is more adaptable to water-based inks, but printing inks must still be improved to produce good print quality. Plus, CDI direct-imaging imaging resin plates or laser-burning imaging make flexographic prints shorter and less costly. , may gradually replace the gravure printing position in the film and synthetic materials. In terms of trademarks, forms, and exquisite corrugated paper printing, there is still room for development. Banks, credit cards, and labor and health insurance notices will all have printed color advertising pages. Therefore, plain printing and flexo printing will have varying degrees of substitution. Flexo is better for small amounts and more in cost and elasticity. “Axialization” is an important direction both in gravure and flexo, especially in narrow flexo with more than ten types of light, film, die-cutting, and net. Printing and other processing possibilities, such as scraping lottery lottery processing, apply wider. However, gravure is superior to ultra-large, ultra-high-speed magazines, cultures, and large amounts of plastic printing over a width of two meters or more, such as the United States. R. Donnelly is still positioning large-scale magazine printing in gravure printing, mainly because of its high density, high gloss, and high-quality reproduction of thin paper. Even commercial rotary printing cannot catch up. (To be continued)
