Talk about the future development direction of label printing industry

with the development of packaging industry, label printing also shows great potential for development, especially in China, which is one step ahead of the recovery in the financial crisis. According to relevant statistics, the total consumption of the label printing market in Asia will account for 37% of the total consumption of the global label printing market by 2015. At present, the per capita label consumption in the Chinese market is only 10% of that in the European and American markets, which also shows that although the development space of label printing may not be 90%, it is also very large

flexographic printing equipment is backward

with the change of people's aesthetic consciousness, labels have also developed from the original single way of expression to diversified, intelligent and other high-end labels. However, a single printing method often cannot meet this demand, so combinatorial printing came into being

combined printing, as the name suggests, is a processing method that combines various printing methods together and cooperates with different post-processing processes to produce finished or semi-finished products

each printing method has its own advantages and disadvantages 9 GH m 0250 m D60 1a01 represents GH series, m18x1.5 thread, 250mm stroke metric, D60 plug, 4 ⑵ 0ma output. How to maximize the advantages required for printing and reduce the impact of disadvantages on prints have become the hottest topic in label printing enterprises

primary label printing enterprises are mainly matte paper materials, with a small amount of BOPP, PVC materials, etc. Intermediate label enterprises should choose materials with good smoothness and high coating strength to adapt to the process characteristics of color dots and large-area field printing. Coated paper and mirror coated paper are the most commonly used materials, and a small amount of film materials such as PE, PP and pet are also commonly used by intermediate label printing enterprises. Medium and high-grade label printing enterprises are mainly high-grade paper materials, and the rest are film materials. Advanced label printing enterprises are mainly high-grade film and paper materials, accounting for about 50% each

as for the application of new technology, there is still a big gap between China and western developed countries. Especially in the United States, the famous flexographic printing Kingdom, flexographic equipment accounts for more than 90%; In Europe, flexo printing accounts for more than 60%, and the proportion is still increasing; At present, embossing is still dominant in China, and flexo printing is only an emerging force

the lag of equipment directly leads to the lag of technology, such as the new type of recycled plastic granulator is constantly optimized and updated, and there is still a lot of room for the development of high-end labels such as combined printing, in film labels and multi-layer labels

grasp the digital opportunity

color digital label printing technology is now an indispensable printing process in label variable information printing. The development speed of label digital printing market is indeed changing with each passing day. The trend of label digitization is to give digital printing performance to traditional printing, and to use digital printing technology to realize digital printing of labels

with the gradual reduction of production batch, the gradual shortening of delivery cycle, the increasing number of personalized information, and the increasingly obvious trend of short version label printing, these are the market driving forces that promote the digitalization of labels

technologies related to the digitalization of label production include digital file transmission, live part definition and description format, digital plate making technology, digital direct drive technology, digital proofing technology, production control, color registration control, management information system, etc. Important label exhibitions in the world also reflect the development and changes of the above technologies

in view of the main functions of carrying information, identifying products, describing content, detailing ingredients, transporting goods and so on, the development of the label industry always seems to be inseparable from the content and appearance, but recently more and more attention has been focused on Intelligent labels

imagine that labels can be monitored and tracked by computers, which can automate logistics, display whether products are damaged or deteriorated, monitor temperature changes, help asset management and return control, and provide ways to identify products. This is not wishful thinking, it just takes time to complete. In fact, the application of electronic tag identification technology (RFID) has announced a major breakthrough in some parts of intelligent labels

China's RFID industry has developed rapidly in recent years, and a relatively perfect RFID industry chain has been gradually formed

in 2009, the output value was 8.51 billion yuan, with a year-on-year increase of 29.3%. Although it started with the introduction of technology, a complete RFID industrial chain has gradually taken shape in China. The industrial chain covers many links, such as the formulation of standards, the design and manufacture of RFID chips and antennas, the integration and packaging of tags, the construction of system and data management software platforms, and the development of application systems

packaging, paper and anti-counterfeiting printing will certainly be affected by RFID technology in the next few years, but there are still some problems such as backward key technologies, imperfect standard system and lagging overall field planning

rfid tags have given new vitality to traditional printing, highlighting the importance of modern electronic technology tradition in the printing industry. This opportunity also needs to be grasped by printing enterprises
