Precision Printing Technology-Gravure printing

Gravure printing employs engraved cylinders to transfer ink onto substrates, delivering exceptional image reproduction. Widely used for high-volume production of packaging, magazines, and decorative materials, this technique excels in consistent quality across long print runs.

GRAVURE PRINTING

The Gravure Process

  1. Cylinder Preparation: Copper-plated cylinders chemically etched with microscopic cells
  2. Ink Application: Precision ink filling of engraved cells
  3. Doctoring: Excess ink removed with doctor blade
  4. Impression: Substrate pressed against cylinder (200-400 PSI)
  5. Drying: Instantaneous solvent evaporation
