The hottest stationery and special printing

Stationery and special printing tools are indispensable in our daily work and study. Everyone has to deal with all kinds of stationery more or less. There are many kinds of stationery, and the market demand is stable, so the profit is very limited, which actually brings great pressure to the printing and decoration of stationery. How to use printing to enhance the value of stationery in the limited profit space is a new topic

for stationery, printing can not only make them more beautiful, but also help them achieve necessary functions, such as the scale on the triangle, the warning sign on the container, the letter description on the key, etc. Now let's talk about several printing methods of stationery

the materials used to make stationery include plastic, metal, glass, paper, leather, wood, etc. printing on these materials is actually good in the field of special printing. In addition to printing some conventional stationery with traditional offset printing, flexo printing and embossing, the special printing process represented by transfer printing and embossing plays a leading role

pad printing

pad printing process is more suitable for stationery with uneven appearance or even large curved surface. The translational imprint pad printing machine uses a soft rubber head to convert back and forth between the printing plate and the product for printing, which is suitable for products with small area; The roller type pad printing machine is suitable for products with a larger area. 7. Refrigerant high-voltage protection switch: protect the compactor and extend the service life of the tensile testing machine

the most significant advantage of pad printing is its strong adaptability to the surface state of products. Pad printing can often achieve better results in situations where conventional printing cannot work. This is related to the characteristics of pad printing itself: the rubber head or roller of pad printing is a tool for transferring ink. Their movement is very simple. They have a relatively independent position relationship with the printing plate system and workbench system, and the adjustment is also very convenient. When the shape of the product changes and is amplified by the high-speed amplifier, we can flexibly adjust their movement relationship to achieve the purpose of printing

pad printing is also one of the best ways to carry out multi-color printing directly on the product surface. The multi-color structure design of pad printing is very mature and the price is relatively cheap, so some bionic stationery often use pad printing to complete overprint. At present, both printing and multi-color bronzing machines are troublesome and expensive, which directly affects the printing possibility of stationery products with small profits

pens are one of the most used stationery, and most of those pens with a large variety are printed by pad printing. For stationery with a very small printing area or printing area, you can first think about whether pad printing can be used. Or when you can't find a better square string to decorate your product, you might as well consider pad printing. If a stationery product is difficult to print with pad printing, it is more difficult to use other methods

the biggest advantage of printing is its strong adaptability to the material of the product. It is claimed that there is no process method that cannot be printed except air and water. As long as we can find the right ink and dry it properly, the complex problem can be solved. The method of printing transfer through missing printing has always been considered to have the lowest requirements for the suitability of the ink and the least impact on the physical and chemical properties of the ink. If we encounter stationery made of some resins or special plastics, we can first use the printing process

at present, printing is also one of the most effective ways to print directly on the surface of ellipsoid and cylinder. The office stationery made by some large companies for customers often contains exquisite ellipsoid or cylinder components, and the pattern on it is often printed by printing. As for pen products, when it comes to round decoration, it is often a masterpiece of printing

more flat stationery products use plate printing, such as pen holders, photo frames, tool boxes, motto boards, etc. placed on the table, which are often made of transparent plexiglass and glass. Users can easily see what is inside. Printing is also the most commonly used for printing on it. We can easily find transparent printing ink and various functional printing inks to decorate, Printing can make simple things become dazzling

printing is a direct printing process, so many workers engaged in printing naturally think of using printing process to reproduce exquisite dot images on stationery. In the past, many people pasted offset landscape paintings inside stationery decorations to get a pleasing visual enjoyment, but this does not necessarily reflect the requirements of personalization, and the grade cannot be effectively improved, so many businesses are considering how to use printing to achieve the purpose

bronzing

bronzing is a packaging and decoration process that transfers the metal layer evaporated on the surface of plastic film to the product by hot pressing. The effect of bronzing is obvious. Its transfer layer is metal rather than ink, so the printed patterns and words are much more eye-catching, which is the easiest for consumers to like

bronzing is suitable for both flat products and non flat products with relatively smooth surface. Sometimes we often make stationery into more complex shapes, but as long as we bend the fixture and bronzing plate appropriately, the application range of bronzing will be wider. Circular products are one of the more common forms. Although we can easily reproduce printed graphics and texts by printing, we need to bronze in order to be eye-catching, so we need a curved bronzing machine

to make stationery more attractive to consumers, we need to use bronzing paper of various colors. Those manufacturers of bronzing paper not only made great improvements in color, but also applied various advanced anti-counterfeiting methods to the printing of bronzing paper, which not only improved the grade of stationery, but also protected patents

in the bronzing process, the requirements for the production materials of stationery are very strict. If proper surface treatment is not carried out, such as glass and metal, bronzing cannot be carried out basically, and the bronzing effect of wooden stationery will also be very poor. Therefore, we must adopt the necessary automatic diagnosis: the system has the function of automatic diagnosis, and the primer technology. When we use the paint specially configured by the painting industry for the printing industry to lay the foundation, bronzing brings the "loyal friends" of metal and glass printing closer at once. As for wooden stationery, as long as you choose a good paint, the effect of bronzing is almost as perfect as that of paper bronzing

heat transfer

stationery printing is sometimes difficult to achieve accurate chromaticity, and the transfer process allows us to achieve one-time multicolor printing at low cost

printing on plastic film is not only fast, but also overprint heat transfer includes two technologies: one is heat transfer film, which combines gravure printing process with unique printing process to turn PET film into multi-layer printing structure, and the final result of transfer printing is to completely peel off the image and text layer built on PET film; The other is the heat transfer process, which uses silicone plates and silicone rollers that can transfer heat to apply pressure to achieve the purpose of transfer

heat transfer printing process is very suitable for products such as packaging boxes. Its appearance requires exquisite decorative patterns, and its intrinsic value will be significantly improved. The heat transfer process is also very suitable for cylindrical stationery products. The unfolding surface of cylindrical products is flat, which makes the decoration of cylindrical stationery products as easy as flat. Compared with plate printing, although it is difficult to find competitors for circular products, printing still has certain limitations in one-time overprint

in addition, the surface of stationery products is not flat, but has a smooth transition surface, but as long as the floating mechanism heat transfer machine is selected, exquisite heat transfer printing can be achieved

water transfer

the mystery of water transfer printing is gradually losing. More and more people understand its technical secrets and begin to adopt it on a large scale in the stationery industry. Water transfer technology uses intaglio printing technology to accurately print on water-soluble films. We can use water transfer technology only by appropriately modifying the heat transfer intaglio printing process. However, the water transfer process is more complex than the heat transfer process. The water-soluble ink used in the water transfer process makes the transfer process must activate the image and text layer on the transfer film into an independent state. In principle, all materials can be used for water transfer printing, so water transfer printing has a wide range of applications

water transfer printing is also a process that can completely cover the appearance of the product. Its effect is more like electroplating or those printing processes that coat the natural color of the product. It is difficult for the product after water transfer printing to see its true colors. Today, many stationery products use water transfer technology to improve visual appreciation and replace the original electroplating, especially the spraying process

the defect of the water transfer process is that it is difficult to transfer the pictures and texts on the base film particularly accurately. The flexibility of the transfer film is the main reason for the image and text deformation in the transfer process, but this is also its advantage. Otherwise, it is difficult for water transfer printing to transfer the image and text to the surface of the whole product

combined printing decoration

there is no printing method that can replace another one. We are always amazed at the advantages of one printing method while helpless at its disadvantages. When any printing process is mature, its control over printing elements becomes imprisonment and constraint

only by practicing and summarizing all printing methods can we grasp their advantages. Combined printing decoration is another highlight of our conquest of consumers. Pad printing is very suitable for those strange small stationery; Water transfer printing is suitable for the whole product surface. The defect is that some local areas are easy to deform and give people an uncomfortable feeling. Covering these areas with pad printing may bring a better feeling; Bronzing can burn a metal layer on a relatively flat surface; Heat transfer printing is basically only suitable for planes and cylinders. Although heat transfer printing can get beautiful transfer pictures, in order to highlight the theme or trademark of stationery products, stamping log0 or trademark in an eye-catching position will achieve unexpected results

uv partial process is widely used in the packaging and decoration industry, and it has a good effect on some wooden stationery products, making the surface of wooden stationery get a thicker UV ink layer, with a strong sense of three-dimensional

in fact, many stationery manufacturers are equipped with pad printing, printing, hot box and heat transfer equipment, which can adopt combined printing process according to actual needs. Only those stationery with exquisite printing and refreshing can arouse the interest of consumers

with the improvement of people's living standards and the growth of personalized needs, the types and forms of stationery show a trend of diversification. The printing of stationery also violates the price brush of foam granulator. The market competition is becoming increasingly fierce, which puts forward higher requirements for stationery printing. Therefore, if manufacturers want to occupy their own place in the fierce competition, only by constantly innovating in the printing method of stationery, can the novel and unique printing effect better stimulate the purchase desire of consumers
