Types printing
digital printing
It is a modern printing method that produces prints from electronic files. This enables us to intervene at any time for additions, corrections, etc. and does not oblige us to make film plates or to follow other complicated procedures.
With digital printing the printed materials have an accurate rendering of the detail we designed.
In short, digital printing combines speed, high quality and small print capability.
FLEXOGRAPHY
It is a printing method in which engraved, flexible, printing surfaces are used in the printing process. The way the printing plate is made has a lot in common with the way the printing plates are produced, with the difference that because it is flexible it can be placed around its periphery. cylinder.
ROTOGRAVURE
In the gravure printing method, the image to be printed is first engraved, by chemical or mechanical means, on a printing plate. The plate is then smeared with thick and strongly colored ink and its indelible spots
wiped so that they are not inked.
Then a lot of pressure is applied to transfer the ink that is in the engraved parts of the printing plate to the substrate, thus forming the image. The pressure pushes the substrate into the depressions of the printing plate, thus creating a relief.
4) THERMOTYPES AND WAFFRE / EMERGENCY VARNISH
Thermal printing (gold printing, silver printing, copper printing, etc.) is a method of printing through the pressure of the film (foil), gold or silver, etc., in design or designs, letters, in an upright or flat press using a cliché.
The most common shades used in this method are gold and silver. However there is a wide range of color films with which we can achieve truly impressive results.
Corrugated printing (embossing) is the process of compressing paper or cardboard carried out through a metal mold of embossed form (cliché). Using this process, the 3D illustration of any point of the label is achieved !!
SILK PRINTS
It is the printing technique for creating an image, using a frame in which there is a grid stretched on top. The main feature is that with the use of the appropriate color it can print a series of materials (paper, plastic, metal, wood, etc.) but also a series of surfaces, smooth or not, since the printing does not require pressure or any other restrictive factor.
LETTERPRESS
It is based on an embossing technique and is widely used for text printing. It remained the main means of printing and distributing information until the 20th century when offset printing was now developed. All forms of data collection have been influenced by the invention of letterpress printing.
