Flexographic Inks offers extreme printing quality coupled with excellent ease of handling and application. It is primarily used in printing media where large format images are required such as posters, signs, invitations, and posters. Flexographic Inks has the ability to produce high-quality results in a shorter time span. In Flexographic Inks, the use of an ultrasonic cure system combined with a water reservoir creates the unique Flexographic Inks system which has made Flexographic Printing Inks a popular printing method for printing large format graphics.
PCMC's Fusion C Flexographic Printing Plate Flexography (or often abbreviated to flexo), is a revolutionary form of semi-flexographic printing process that uses low pressure, high-volume, rotary ink ribbon-type printing press. It is basically a modernized form of traditional letterpress, improved with high speed, rotary performance, that is used for printing on any kind of physical surface, including metal, plastic, and even paper. The printing media used in Flexographic Inks is specially crafted to be able to withstand a certain temperature range. Since the ink used in Flexographic Inks is highly resilient to temperature fluctuations, it can be printed over again at different print temperatures using the same equipment without affecting the final quality or appearance of the final printed image. In addition, the high-performance nature of the PCMC process minimizes the wastage of ink from the printing plates.
Flexographic Inks can be printed on a variety of substrates including wood, acrylic, metal, fiberglass, cardboard, and even paper. The printing process and the substrate are both designed to have similar characteristics, such as smoothness, uniformity, and good color-to-black ratio. As Flexographic Inks can be printed easily in different colors and shades, the production of the final products is highly customized. This allows the printing company to cater to the various needs and desires of their customers.
Flexographic Printing Inks' packaging methodologies are also flexible. For instance, the printing process for Flexographic Inks involves direct thermal printing on the printing plates, which makes for high-quality packaging materials. The printing plates are made up of special plastics that resist degradation, even during the long-term use of the printing plates. Moreover, the special plastics allow the printing process to work smoothly without affecting the physical state of the product that is being packaged, such as the stability of the components during shipping, and the resistance of the packaging material during use.
This Ink is available in two forms - physical and water-based. Water-based inks, such as FlexiWhite, FlexiGreen, Flexi+, and FlexiMax, are more economical to use and require low-cost manufacturing processes. Moreover, due to its low cost, the manufacturing process for Flexi+ Green is less time-consuming. Therefore, they are ideal for the fulfillment of short-run orders and meet the needs of the rapid manufacturing industry. Flexographic Inks also comes in two versions, physical and water-based, with each version offering a slightly different printing process.
Flexographic Printing Inks are usually used to print on polyester coatings. These inks are suitable for printing substrate materials that can be easily machined. As Flexographic Inks can be easily used on most substrates, it offers an unprecedented ability to produce the most diverse products and applications. Flexographic Inks are produced by using solvents and are used to print on almost all kinds of substrates including metals, plastics, textiles, ceramics, wood, and others. Therefore Flexographic Inks has immense scope for industrial usage.
