Since Founder Sharp's products were officially launched in 2008, it has installed nearly 1,000 sets in the domestic and foreign packaging markets. Founder sharp products have been fully applied in the printing fields of gravure printing, flexo printing, tin can making and so on. This article will introduce the current situation of the application of founder sharp products in the field of gravure printing, and the experience of the users of model users.
Since China's accession to the WTO, the rapid development of food, beverage, cigarettes, medical drugs and clothing industries has increased demand for gravure prints. Under the trend of higher quality requirements, China's gravure printing has grown from scratch Great progress has been made and rapid development.
Due to the rapid development of gravure printing, gravure printing has accounted for 22% of all printing methods in China. From this, it can be seen that the domestic gravure printing market has become increasingly demanded and widely used. As the gravure printing plate market matures, the overall market demand for printing plates will continue to increase, and the profit margin will increase accordingly.
As the world's largest gravure plate-making enterprise-Yuncheng Plate-making Group, it has successfully applied Founder's sharp packaging products.
Yuncheng Plate-making Group has many types of customers, and the manuscripts are ever-changing. In addition, the characteristics of gravure substrates make the workload of document pre-press finishing very huge. After adopting Founder's sharp packaging products, the trapping that was originally completed in a few hours can now be completed in just a few minutes. In addition, the Founder Sharp's pre-flying and search functions can quickly find out various objects that are not suitable for gravure printing, plus the gradient tool, crosshair tool, and bold text tool in the top sharp toolbox, making Modifying files becomes fast and good. The functions of Founder Sharp correspond to the actual difficulties of Yuncheng plate-making, and practically solve the practical problems in the pre-press process of gravure plate-making, fully meet the urgent needs of Yuncheng pre-press personnel, and bring great advantages to Yuncheng pre-press personnel. Great help has greatly improved productivity.
First, let's understand the difficulties of pre-press production and processing in the field of gravure printing industry.
1) High trapping requirements. Because there are many special colors for gravure printing, and the substrate is easily deformed, the trapping volume of gravure printing is particularly large. In addition to the large trapping volume, the effect of gravure printing on trapping is particularly high. The trapping made does not affect the shape of the original, and it needs to be integrated with the original and beautiful. Traditional manual trapping is time-consuming and labor-intensive. In addition, if you are not careful, trapping omissions may occur, often leading to major production accidents.
2) Because flexible packaging occupies a huge share in gravure printing, due to the transparent nature of the film, in order to make the printing effect more beautiful, it is often necessary to lay a layer of white background on the graphic part, the shape of the object is ever-changing, and the effect of laying the white background requires accurate.
3) There are many objects in the manuscript designed by the designer that are not suitable for gravure printing, such as transparent objects, gradient objects, etc., so pre-press personnel must find them one by one for processing. Due to the huge number of objects, manual search is cumbersome Sometimes, and omissions are easy to occur.
Let's take a look at the solutions given by Zhengrui products below for the difficulties in pre-press processing of gravure printing.
1) Trap processing-to the middle
Original processing
The user had to manually make it before, but it was often due to the irregular boundary of the object, which resulted in a long production cycle and difficulty in making details.
Difficult and error-prone places
Because trapping often involves the centring effect of trapping, irregular borders lead to large changes in trapping width, and the centring effect is particularly important in the process of trapping, so it is the difficulty of manual production and the crux of time-consuming and laborious; Mid-point "(trap area to half line): When two trap areas or the trap area overlaps with the original object, the trap effect is generated according to the middle position of the two areas.
Founder sharp products provide solutions
Founder sharp packaging products can complete the trapping intermediate effect of complex objects with a simple key setting.

2) Trap processing-trapping between images and graphics
Original processing
The pre-press personnel manually processed the images individually in Adobe Photoshop.
Difficult and error-prone places
In Adobe Illustrator, when the image object has no mask or no pixels outside the mask, the trap area generated based on the pixel effect of the image boundary is difficult to simulate, so traps that extend outward from the image are difficult to do. Therefore, it is necessary to rasterize the graphic vector objects related to the image objects and make traps in Adobe Photoshop. Because there are often many image objects in gravure packaging operations, the amount of image-related trapping is large and time-consuming. At the same time, the forced rasterization of vectors will also affect the accuracy, which is also a last resort.

Founder sharp packaging products can quickly complete the trapping effect between complex image graphics through simple trapping parameter settings.

3) Search processing-find small and error-prone objects
Original processing
The prepress personnel manually rug to find error-prone objects.
Difficult and error-prone places
The gravure packaging operation includes all kinds of error-prone objects, and the pre-press personnel need to find out and modify them to avoid output traps during the RIP process or errors during the printing process. Due to the large number and complexity of error-prone objects, manual search is cumbersome and time-consuming, and is prone to omissions.
Solutions provided by sharp products
Founder's sharp search and pre-flight items can help users quickly locate objects, understand all kinds of problem-prone objects included in the job, and easily modify them to wipe out the problem objects.

4) Preview processing-preview of minimum dot percentage
Original processing
The pre-press production staff (Dianping, Diandian) select each object element in the job one by one to check the percentage of ink dots.
Difficult and error-prone places
The number of objects requiring manual inspection is huge, and it takes a long time to inspect, and it is easy to cause missed inspections and lead to printing accidents.
Solutions provided by sharp products
Founder Sharp can set the minimum dot percentage value in advance, and quickly and automatically check out the areas in the job that do not meet the minimum ink percentage value through the preview function.

Through the explanation of the above four examples, we can see that Founder Sharp's products can help prepress personnel in the field of gravure to greatly improve the efficiency of prepress processing of packaging, reduce user production costs, and make gravure platemaking companies easily and easily respond to market changes And different customer needs.
