Which printing method do you prefer paper cup machine?
Paper cup machines have a variety of printing methods, and different printing methods have different printing characteristics.
1. Screen printing due to its softness, elasticity, flexibility and applicability. It is not only suitable for software printing such as paper and cloth, but also for hardware printing such as glass and ceramics. It is not limited by the surface shape and area of the bearing printing material. However, the advantages of screen printing paper cup machines are not well reflected, screen printing has great limitations on image reproduction, and there are certain difficulties in dealing with gradual changes and the accuracy of copying images.
2. Soft printing, soft printing is called green printing because it uses water-based ink. At present, the product packaging of many companies is developing in the direction of flexo printing.
3. Offset printing adopts the principle of mutual repulsion between oil and water. The film propaganda paper cup machine is divided into lipophilic and waterproof, the blank part is hydrophilic and oil-proof, and the pictures and texts are transferred to the printing materials through the rubber cloth roller. The advantage of the offset printing paper cup machine is that the pattern is full of color, bright in color and high in definition. Whether it is a gradient or a small line, it can be better displayed, making the appearance of the paper cup machine more beautiful and attracting the attention of customers. However, offset printing is not suitable for printing edible paper cup machines because offset printing inks are not very environmentally friendly.
Due to the relatively simple structure of the flexographic printing machine, the flexographic printing machine is thin compared to the huge body of the flexographic printing machine and the expensive material cost. In terms of cost, the equipment investment of a flexographic printing machine is lower than that of an offset printing machine of the same scale, which can generally save 30% to 40%. Small production investments have attracted the participation of small printing companies.
