The popularization and application of thousands of high-tech computers and networks in the field of printing has enabled the printing industry to embark on a 7-intelligent process, from prepress graphic production, plate making, management, digital printing, network printing, and automated postpress processing. Integrate the road of production, so that the quality, speed, form, etc. are more to meet people's needs. Intelligent printing has changed the defects of traditional printing, further improved the quality of printed products, and opened the way for the rapid development of the printing industry. Nowadays, with the advancement of intelligent printing in India and India, it has begun to land in the post-press processing industry and expand rapidly, so that the post-press processing of bottle pre-press printing industry has gradually embarked on the implementation of high and new technology. ,foreseeable. Intelligent printing will be the main direction for future printing. The development of technology and the fierce competition in the market. Requires printing to move faster, better, and cheaper. After prepress and printing are digitalized, intelligentized, and networked, postpress processing has become a bottleneck restricting the rapid development of printing industries, such as magazines. Printing and catalog printing, customers want high-speed, high-quality installations without increasing costs or at a lower cost. This trend is determined by the rapid, personalized and targeted demands of customers, and it is also a major market competition. For other units that lined printing, speed has become the basis of competition, and quality is a guarantee of competition. It is also a key to ensuring the long-term development of the post-press processing industry. The traditional post-press processing speed and quality tribute are not satisfactory. Therefore, the development of the entire printing industry at the time of post-press processing automation and intelligentization has a very important significance. First, the automation of postpress processing The focus of post-press processing automation is to use high-tech, advanced and practical technologies to transform and improve the paper-binding glue linkage/linkage lines, hard-linked linkage/linkage lines, die-cutting machines, and paper cutters. Improve its automation, intelligence and linkage level. Ensure quality stability and reliability, improve quality and efficiency. Intelligent equipment must be equipped with an intelligent system. To make the post-press processing process smooth, it is necessary to eliminate the gaps between processes, strengthen integration, shorten the cycle time and extend the field. Nowadays, post-press processing has been extended to the mailing part, that is, post-press processing is responsible for all mailing information, from the address of inkjet or labeling to sorting and then sent to the postal service. The technology of delivery delivery shortens the time the printed product leaves the printing press. If the print product can be prepared and processed directly, the work cycle will be greatly shortened. In recent years, many units have invested large sums of money in pre-press, India, and Yao brush, and have achieved gratifying results. But for units that have little or no investment in post-press processing, they can only get very small production and increase costs. This will inevitably strengthen the emphasis on the post-press processing part, such as the application of post-press processing automation technology. First, automation of postpress processing can save money. Most devices have automatic adjustment functions instead of manual labor. As long as the operator adjusts several buttons on the console, he can control folding, glue-binding, or lock stitching, hot stamping, lamination, and cutting. These generally require new and advanced machine equipment. For example, the new folding machine has a zero adjustment function to automatically adjust the bending plate. This feature allows the operator to fine-tune the plate simply by turning the knob, without having to remove the roller as before (at least two talents ). The CNC of the console saves a lot of time. At present, the level of automation and intelligent control of die-cutting machines, paper cutters, and saddle-stitching machines is continuously improving, such as data communication between multiple programmable controllers of die-cutting machines, and LCD smart operation of display screens. Human-machine dialogue; using optical fiber sensors to detect cursors, precise positioning, digital servo. Holographic aluminum foil surface tension control. Hot stamping holographic machinery precision manufacturing technology, compared with the advanced level there are still gaps. Another example is the cutting speed of the paper cutting machine, the color large-screen display, the graphical menu, multi-language selection, fault display, automatic up and down paper and other functions have been greatly improved. High-end flat-packed joints, high-end hardcover co-motivators, high-end folder-gluers, bag-making machines, high-grade glazing machines, circular presses and die-cutting machines, high-end slitting machines, carton production lines, dry wet-laid compounding machines, ticket production lines and other equipment The level of automation and intelligent control has also reached a considerable height. Some manufacturers, such as Heidelberg and Man Rowland, already have corresponding product investment markets. The cutting machine illustrates the development trend of ergonomics. The development of cutting system linkage, digitization and intelligence will greatly reduce the operation time and increase the quality. According to estimates, its overall efficiency is more than 2001 for an ordinary single-cutting machine, and it can reduce overall costs and stabilize operations. Equipment that adjusts paper, such as stackers, bumpers, and waste collection systems, reduces operating time and improves control accuracy. The goal of the cutting system is to increase efficiency and reduce labor intensity. The current European portable feeders can transfer paper-feeding mechanisms from printing presses to other processes, such as folding machines, without having to reload the papers onto the folding machines. This can save time and time. Reduce labor intensity. Second, the diversification of post-press processing In the intelligent development of post-press processing, diversified post-press processing is also an important issue. Printers strive to provide consumers with more efficient processes and equipment, as do post-press processors. In recent years, many post-press processors have added processes, UV coating, laminating, folding/gluing, and even printing operations in post-press processing, which has enhanced the competitiveness of post-press processing. For example, rotary bronzing and embossing printing have opened up new markets. At present, rotary bronzing consists of two types, narrow-web roll-fed hot stamping and sheet-fed rotary bronzing. Narrow Web Rotary Gold foil stamping unit used in gravure printing machines. With the development and speed of bronzing technology. Gravure printing presses have been able to produce at low cost and high speed. The market for narrow-web roll bronzing is very broad, especially for instant printing, such as trademark and cartoon printing. Large batches of trademarks can be used in narrow-band printing for decorative processes such as bronzing and embossing, which require little additional cost. Hot stamping and embossing are no longer expensive for consumers who need to increase their volume. Narrow roll; paper roll hot stamping opened up the market, bow} came more attention, at the same time, it also brought a threat to the sheetfed printing (such as trademark printing of wine), but the development of bronzing and embossing will Facilitate the development of the printing market. Sheet-fed hot stamping is done using a curved die. Although it does not print and bronze online as a narrow-web roll, it is still faster than standard pattern printing. This is good for mass production of cartoons, greeting cards, book cases and other similar items. The more mature and familiar the process is, the faster the business rises and the better the position of post-press processing. Third, on-demand printing The current solution works well, but it is expensive. Heidelberg offers the equipment NexPress for personalized printing, a new type of printing machine that can print on a single sheet. Both Poler and Heidelberg's Stack Folding Machines provide solutions for personalized printing to process NexPress products. Print on Demand (POD) emphasizes flexibility, personalization, and short-run printing. POD printers can usually print products within 24 hours. Nowadays, the binding equipment for the short black-and-white soft cover books is very complicated. Many suppliers provide a separate, on-line or off-line solution for the binding of small-batch paperback books. This new device is equipped with a book cover. Machine and a new generation of highly automated three-sided cutting machine. This binding device can be adjusted for different spine thicknesses and adapted to print on demand. Short-term mailings now have a large market. Many digital printing business program binders produce hardcover books. The complexity of binding equipment, the limitations of limited edition hardcover book decoration, and limited technology and experience have created opportunities for program binders. At the same time, because of the flexibility of short-run printing, many program stitchers have been printing short-run book blocks to meet customer needs. In the past three years, the printing industry has been committed to establishing pre-press, printing, and post-press communication standards. Although CIP3 action originated from prepress and ink equipment, it has begun to have a certain impact on India. Multi-function digital printers emphasize personalization. For example, two-color and multi-color printing require highly consistent information transmission throughout the production process. Sheet-fed integration technology is shifting to the publishing market. At present, several standards have been formed to ensure the accuracy of complex text page codes and the consistency of documents. In a word, with the wide application of digitization, networking, and intelligence in the fields of printing and post-press processing, it will add wings to the rapid development of the printing industry. It can be asserted that the trend that will lead the printing industry in the future will be hi-tech content. Smart technology.
Appearance packaging is also seen as a good way to save money, but a consistent workflow also serves the same purpose. Current third-party systems, such as QTI's products, allow control of printing on a console including stapling. To improve efficiency, future workflows include all printing processes. CIP3 was born for this. The CIP3 system is based on international standards, this one. The international standard is called pre-press, printing, and post-press integration. CIP3 means pre-press, printing, and post-press integration, which shortens job preparation time. It was initiated by Heidelberg and now 33 manufacturers and one printer support this system. In the prepress and printing area, CIP3 has been applied, such as adjusting ink volume and controlling color. Currently Polar's Compucut, StahlfolderompuFold, and MBO's Navigator all support this system. As for the next-generation standard CIP4, it includes all the features of CIP3 plus Adobe's standard file format JDF. In addition to containing print information, CIP4 also contains the entire workflow and feature descriptions on different platforms. Doing so can control process variables and improve quality.
With the wide development of on-demand printing, on-demand processing after printing will also become the supporting process for the development of intelligent printing in the future. There are new changes in binding equipment. Personalized direct mailing and variable printing account for more and more. Although all the elements, graphics, layouts and personalized roads are still very long, some devices are now personalized. Sea lines and broken lines, equipment, provide personalized inkjet output. Each resolution. Zhang was printed on different addresses and even different patterns. Bu FM printing products are different, binders have encountered new problems. How to solve the waste of different printed sheets? There is no effective solution yet. Manufacturers have tried many methods such as: Marking printed sheets.
