With the continuous development of the printing industry, traditional printing faces many challenges. Which trends will the printing industry develop in the future? Today let us talk about the development trend of the printing industry in the future from 6 aspects.
1. Printing online
Book printing factories face the strong competitiveness. In response to the gradual increase in market customer demands. Printing companies are more "scheming" in getting an order. Most of the printing factory are transfer online printing service from traditional mode. Meanwhile, provide various of personal customs to meet the market needs. Printing online can on-time communication. So that to reduce the communication time and cost, then to short the order making cycles. Printing online has become a big trend of printing industry.
2. Green printing technology becoming the major trend
Waterless offset printing ink, soy ink, etc replace the traditional printing ink. Waterless offset printing ink don't need to use the fountain solution. It can save a lot of time to adjust the machine and reduce the waste of master paper. Besides, its unique planogravure structure also provides better control over dot gain and fineness of imaging. Because waterless printing reduces the production of various waste liquids in printing. It has always been advocated by environmental protection.
Soy ink is made from soybean oil. It is green printing ink. In the printing process, it doesn't production any pollution. Soy ink is more suitable for children's book printing. Even if the little baby bites the book. It can't harm children's health. So soy ink is also the trend in the printing industry.
3. Use data to control cost and environment
The management and the classification of the company's waste according to the inventory figures. It will reduce costs and protect the environment through these two aspects. "First, use the numbers 0 to 15 to demarcate the position of the item. And start from the largest number 15 when taking the item. For example, for the ink, at least three days of production must be guaranteed. When the number reaches 4, it is exactly three days. If the stock quantity is not enough, we need to fill in the order card. And then re-order from the goods supplier to ensure that the stock quantity is available for 3 days. Other production materials are managed in this way. But the stocks of different production materials are guaranteed. There are some differences in the amount.�?Besides, the various wastes that are constantly generated by the factory are also being recycled. In 2005, the advanced Japanese company Jinyangsha reduced organic solvents from 28 to 26, from 26 to 24 in 2006, and from 24 to 10 in 2007. The organic solvents still in use so far. There are 10 more, and several organic solvents are being tested to achieve the purpose of continuous reduction.
4. A New Era of True Color Printing
Sakata Kiyoshi, deputy director of the Technology Department of Fuji Starlight Printing Equipment (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. He believes that in the future printing trend. Printing companies will import and use two more technologies. One is waterless printing, and the other is a new generation of inkjet digital printing machines. To fully reproduce the original tonal range.
5. Use color management system to save ink.
Through GMG's InkOptimizer system, it can reduce the amount of ink applied to the page by calculating the amount of color conversion from CMYK (note: it is a four-color printing color mode) to CMYK. While ensuring Ink quality, improved printing conditions. Under the control of this system, the automatic reduction of the color ink volume reduces the overall ink volume of the printing to more than 25%. While significantly reducing the drying time and the preparation time of the printing job. Thereby improving the productivity.
6. Wide color gamut printing will be widely used.
With the popularization of original input using digital cameras. The widespread use of inkjet printers. And the construction of RGB (note: three-color printing color mode) digital workflow system. Wide Color gamut printing will be widely used in the future printing.
At present, in the context of economic globalization. The development of the printing industry. It is developing in the direction of green, service, high efficiency, digitization and intelligence. New products, new technologies, new service areas, and new business models continue to emerge. Technology research and development processes are accelerated . technology and product life cycles are continuously shortened. And technology cross-integration and technology integration are developing rapidly.
These changes have a large impact in the traditional printing industry. In the era of big data, the printing factories must break away from tradition mode. And move towards the road of high-tech innovation.
