Analysis on Three Printing Crafts

Among frequently seen carton boxes, for example, fruit storage boxes, archive boxes, shipping boxes, mailer boxes, and warehousing boxes, there are mainly three kinds of printing crafts in carton boxes manufacturing, namely offset printing, flexo printing and gravure printing. These three printing crafts are decided to be adopted subject to actual manufacturing condition and characteristics of paper packaging products, taking into consideration of lowering printing and manufacturing cost and improving production efficiency and printing quality. 


Here we would like to make a comparison among these three printing crafts.


Firstly, offset printing is suitable for machines of roller paper and flat paper both. Roller paper machines can meet the demand of massive printing and the surface paper can be bond to the corrugated paper on the corrugated paper line directly after printing. While the flat paper machines are better for medium scale printing and production with various printing specifications for options. Also the flat paper machines are recognized for printing the E fluting corrugated paper with more precise printing effect and higher quality than the roller paper machines. Generally speaking, offset printing is featured with high resolution, rich printing levels, soft color tones and high printing reproduction effect. With the advantage of fast printing and cost effectiveness, the offset printing is widely adopted in the pre-printing of surface paper of carton boxes.


Secondly, flexo printing combines the advantages of offset printing and gravure printing, with lighter printing press but delivers strong printing color and clear printing effect. It is suitable not only for printing on smooth paper surface, but also  for coarse paper surface; not only for non-absorbance materials, but also for high absorbance materials; not only for thin paper, but also for thick paper. Besides, the flexo printing is also suitable for roller paper machines and flat paper machines. And for the flat paper machines, there are pre-printing machines that can print surface paper and corrugated paper directly.


Thirdly, gravure printing is famous for high press run and high printing speed, suitable for roller paper machines and plate paper machines as well. It is quite very friendly to large scale printing and thick ink printing paper packaging products, because of its thick gravure layers and its quick drying speed. Compared with offset printing and flexo printing, gravure printing is unlikely to face the problem of color aberration. Therefore, gravure printing is the best printing crafts for carton printing for its stable quality. However, due to higher cost of gravure printing materials, it is best for massive carton printing and manufacturing, in order to lower the production cost.
