Usually our customized carton color box production process is as follows.

1. Design ofdate night gift box ideas

This stage is mainly completed by you, the designer and the printing house. First, you design the packaging and printing documents according to your own requirements with the advertising company or your own internal designers, and complete the selection of packaging materials at the same time.

2. Out of film for date night gift box ideas

Send the design files to our printing factory, and our printing factory and the film company will produce the film.

3. Printing of date night gift box ideas

After our printing factory gets the film, it will be printed according to the size of the film, the thickness of the paper, and the printing color.

4. Making knife mold and mounting pit for date night gift box ideas

The production of cutting molds should be determined according to the samples and printed semi-finished products. A good cutting mold determines the appearance and shape of the color box. Mounting pits are mainly used on pit boxes. Choose pit paper according to your requirements and stick them together with special machinery. .

5. Appearance treatment of printed matter for date night gift box ideas

This appearance treatment is mainly to beautify the surface, including lamination, bronzing, UV, oil polishing, etc.

6. Forming for date night gift box ideas

7. Sticky box for date night gift box ideas

It is to glue the color box to the parts that need to be fixedly connected according to the template or design style.

So after all above process, mass production time of date night gift box ideas need abt 25~28 days after confirm design file.

The commonly used printing processes for carton products mainly include offset printing, letterpress printing (flexo printing) and gravure printing. These three printing forms have their own advantages. Therefore, according to the actual situation of the factory and the characteristics of the product, we must comprehensively weigh the pros and cons, and choose the appropriate process for printing production, in order to better reduce printing production costs, improve printing production efficiency and The print quality of the product.

1. Offset printing process

The offset printing process has multi-color groups and multi-functional roll paper and flat paper models. The former has a higher production speed and is suitable for printing pre-printed cartons with large batches and relatively fixed product structures. After printing, the surface paper can be combined with corrugated paper. The corrugated cardboard on the production line is directly laminated and glued. The printing speed of the latter can reach about 10,000 sheets per hour, which is suitable for printing carton products produced in small and medium batches, and the printing specifications of the face paper can be changed flexibly.

The flatbed paper machine can also directly print fine corrugated cardboard, and its overprint accuracy is higher than the former, and the quality is relatively stable. The thin ink layer of the offset printing process is more suitable for the fine line plate and multi-color anilox plate of overprinting or overprinting. The production advantages of convenient and fast plate making, easy plate loading and proofreading operations and low plate making costs are widely used in the printing of color pre-printed carton surface paper. the

2. Gravure printing process

The gravure printing process is also divided into web and flatbed printing machines, and there are various models of color groups and functions. This printing process has the characteristics of high printing plate durability and fast printing speed.

Because the gravure printing ink layer is thicker, the printing ink color is full and full of three-dimensional effect, the layout printing layer is rich, the texture is strong, and the printing ink color dries faster, so it is more suitable for printing products with large area and thick ink volume. The gravure printing process is not only suitable for printing solid and spot color line plates, but also can print fine anilox plates. Compared with offset printing, flexo printing or silk screen printing, this process is the least likely to produce printing color difference. The quality of printed cartons is The most stable and best. Since the gravure plate is made of steel roll material through electroplating, electric engraving and other processing techniques, the plate-making process is relatively complicated, the plate-making materials and costs are relatively expensive, and the plate-changing operation is also troublesome, so it is especially suitable for batch printing. Larger volumes of pre-printed carton printing production can better reduce production costs. the

3. Flexographic printing process

The flexographic printing process is also divided into roll paper and flat paper multi-color printing machines. Among them, flat paper printing machines have pre-printed models for printing surface paper, as well as direct printing on corrugated cardboard, and can complete slitting, on-line Indentation, slotting unit. The flexographic printing process is compatible with the advantages of letterpress, lithographic and gravure printing processes. Because the printing plate is flexible, the printing pressure is much lighter than other processes, with lighter printing pressure, thick printing ink color, clear imprint, and printing plate durability The main feature of the high rate.

This process can not only print cardboard with good surface gloss, but also print cardboard with rough surface; it can print non-absorbent materials, and can print cardboard with strong absorption; it can print both thin paper and thick paper; It is suitable for printing fine anilox plate and line plate, and also suitable for printing line plate or solid plate of spot color. Flexographic printing plates are divided into rubber plates and resin plates. The main materials of rubber plates are natural rubber and synthetic rubber. There are three types of plate making: hand engraving, laser engraving and casting. When using a rubber plate, attention should be paid to its printability, such as considering the ink affinity, ink transfer, coverage and reproducibility of rubber, using water-based ink for printing, using natural rubber plates compared to synthetic rubber plates The material is better. Butyl rubber plates are more suitable for the use of solvent-based inks.

When using nitrile rubber plates, you should try to avoid using solvent-based inks to prevent the plates from being corroded and damaged by solvents. The rubber plate also has the disadvantages of easy deformation and cracking, so it is not suitable for printing fine products. The photosensitive resin plate-making process is very simple, and its plate-making speed is much faster than that of hand-carved and cast rubber plates. The plate-loading operation is convenient, the ink transfer performance of the printing plate is good, and the printing quality is relatively stable. The plate has good latitude, can reproduce finer high-gloss dot levels, can reproduce more than 2% dots and can print 150-line anilox plate.

The expansion rate of the solid resin plate is much smaller than that of the rubber plate and the liquid resin plate, so it is more suitable for making anilox and line plates for multi-color overprinting. However, the price of the solid resin plate is relatively expensive, and the production cost is relatively high. Therefore, it is more suitable for printing bulk packaging products.

When we use a carton printing machine, the printed matter may change color after a period of use.

In view of this situation, I will introduce a few more effective methods to you.

1. First of all, we should check whether the design of our printed matter on the layout is reasonable, such as placing the pattern with a relatively large amount of ink on the drag position. For such a layout design, it is definitely not conducive to our printing of high-quality printed matter. We should Put them in the position of the jaws, which is conducive to the control of the jaws on the paper, and it is easier to print prints that do not change color. After doing this, our prints may be able to solve the problem of discoloration. Of course, there are some that cannot be solved. If After all these efforts, our prints are still discolored. Notify the company for repair as soon as possible, so that the problem can be solved quickly.

2. After we have ruled out the problem of the film, we should check whether there is a problem with the ink system. We can use a very simple method to check the ink system. First, we use car wash water (water can be added) to clean the ink system thoroughly. After parking We should check whether there are white crystalline particles in the ink path. If we find such substances, the discoloration may be the local discoloration of the printed matter produced by the crystalline substance. This discoloration is often more manifested. The partial color of the product brush is color cast.

After washing the car, we did not find these crystalline substances. We restarted the printing machine and inked to each ink roller. After inking, we closed the forme ink roller and forme water roller to check whether the pressure reached the standard. If not, I suggest re-adjusting all ink roller pressures, which have reached a better state.

3. After doing these things, we can try printing. We'd better choose a better coated paper for trial printing, so as to avoid the influence of paper problems on us. For thin paper, the air volume on the embossing should be as small as possible, and for thick paper, we should increase it appropriately. If the discoloration of the printed matter has already occurred, we should not start to draw conclusions about the problem of the printing machine itself, we should first look for the reason around the printing machine, we should first use a magnifying glass to observe the dots on the printing plate, and check whether it has The deformation of the dots that appear, if it is found that the dots have been deformed on the printing plate, then we should check the film to rule out the problem when the film is released.

4. Check the condition of the paper loading, including the adjustment of the paper loading air, the flatness of the paper on the front gauge, the cooperation between the paper and the paper pressing piece, the operation of the paper feeding belt, etc. After there is no problem with the ink path system, we check the condition of the water path, and adjust the pressure between the plate water roller, metering roller, water bucket roller, and water channeling roller, especially the pressure of the middle roller, because our technology is not enough Under certain conditions, it is best not to use the intermediate water roller during the printing process.

5. If the heat still does not solve the discoloration problem after all these have been done, then we may have to consider the problem of the teeth. We should clean the tooth pads, and it is best to remove the spring for cleaning. Some of our manufacturers lead the machine I only know how to clean the tooth pads, but I don’t know that cleaning the tooth sheets is actually wrong.

Check for dead teeth, use a high-efficiency rust remover such as WD-40, and oil the teeth and shafts to make sure there are no dead teeth. If there is no problem with the ink path, we should check whether the rubber backing is standard. We suggest that the thickness of the backing should be ]35 silk, and the blanket should preferably be branded with aluminum strips and the blanket should be new. It is best to re-tighten the new blanket after using it for a period of time.
