Three methods of reducing the use cost of gravure ink

It is the best way to create profits for printing companies to control the purchase cost of gravure inks. Of course, this must first be based on satisfying customers' requirements for printed products. Reducing costs and making profits is a prerequisite for the survival and development of enterprises. Therefore, there are two ways to reduce costs in gravure ink printing. One is to reduce the cost of use, and the other is to reduce the procurement cost of ink. Here, we mainly discuss how to reduce the cost of using gravure ink.

Reduce the cost of use

Reducing costs and obtaining maximum profits are the prerequisites for the survival and development of enterprises, and packaging and printing plants are no exception. Although ink only accounts for 15% of printing costs (paper accounts for 45%), as far as we understand, printing companies have never given up their efforts to reduce ink costs. Packaging and printing companies hope that ink suppliers will provide the best price-performance ratio to meet the requirements Ink products.

1) Improve ink colorability

Several of the printing companies interviewed hoped that the ink production plant would improve the colorability of the ink, and hope to use quantitative ink to print more jobs or quantitative jobs with the least amount of ink to reduce printing costs. However, the amount of ink is closely related to the colorability of the ink. In the case of a certain amount of ink, the higher the colorability of the ink, the more jobs are printed and the greater the profit.

2) Reduce the use of additives or use matching additives

On the one hand, printing companies hope that the ink used can be used directly during printing, no or little additives are needed, and only the viscosity of the ink needs to be adjusted with a solvent. Because the addition of additives will increase printing costs, increase preparation time before printing, waste manpower, affect the stability of ink properties, and also cause trouble for post-press processing.

On the other hand, the additives are required to have certain pertinence, the additives must be matched with the ink, the effect is obvious and easy to use. For example, Huangshan Xinli Ink Chemical Factory has formulated corresponding additives according to the characteristics of Huangshan Yongxin Joint Stock Company's printed products. Among them, additives B-0020 and B0142 can effectively solve the problem of knife stains in high-speed printing. Add additives B0142 It can improve the antistatic property of the ink without affecting the compound strength of the ink.

For some printing plants, there is still a problem that the used ink needs to be stored for a short period of time. Now, many unused inks that have been added with additives can not continue to be used, causing waste. Therefore, the printing plant hopes that the used ink can continue to be used after simple treatment after storage for 1 to 2 months to reduce the waste of ink and save costs. This requires the ink manufacturer to solve the problem that the ink cannot be used continuously after being mixed. .

3) Improve the adaptability of ink to high-speed printing

At present, the speed of domestic gravure printing machines is generally around 150 meters per minute, and the increase in the speed of printing presses will reduce the operating costs of printing plants and increase the efficiency. Therefore, printing companies hope that plastic gravure inks that can adapt to 300 m / min or even higher printing speeds will be available soon.
