Hot stamping/silvering
Usage Hot stamping paper treated with anodized aluminum or color film and coated with adhesive on the back is transferred to the printed matter by heating and pressing a metal plate. In addition to paper, hot stamping can also be used on leather or plastic, and can also be combined with embossing processing. The finished product is very shiny and eye-catching.
Embossed/debossed/embossed
The scientific name is imprinting, which uses a template or a metal roller with engraved textures to create a three-dimensional (convex or concave) pattern or texture on the surface of the printed matter through pressure. It is divided into two types: cheap ordinary etched version and expensive laser embossed version.
UV glazing
The UV ink used in UV printing needs to be fixed and dried by ultraviolet rays, and the ink containing photosensitizer is matched with the UV curing lamp. Wrap a layer of varnish (glossy, matte, inlaid crystal, glitter, etc.) on the group that needs to be highlighted, mainly to increase the brightness and artistic effect of the product. It is one of the most important contents in the printing industry.
Die cutting
Also called “beer”, it refers to a cutting process for the post-processing of printed matter. The die-cutting process can make die-cutting blades based on the printed matter according to the pre-designed graphics for cutting, so that the shape of the printed matter is no longer limited and enhanced. expressiveness.
Flocking
The adhesive is first printed through screen printing, and static electricity is used to make the fibers adhere to it in the same direction, thereby implanting short fibers into the printing surface. Therefore, it is possible to create a variety of looks such as animal fur and grass textures.
Matte
Also UV imitation metal etching is called imitation metal etching printing. After printing a layer of uneven translucent ink on a substrate with metallic mirror luster (such as gold, silver cardboard, etc.), it is fixed with ultraviolet light (UV) to make the surface of the printed matter dazzle. to an etched or frosted effect. Makes the product more aesthetically pleasing and more durable.
Glued/laminated
It refers to applying a transparent plastic film to the surface of the printed matter through hot pressing. There are two types: glossy film and matte film, which play a role in protecting and adding texture. Common film-coated packaging products include cartons, cartons, handbags, fertilizer bags, seed bags, self-adhesive labels, etc.
3D printing
Usually refers to three-dimensional lenticular printing. It uses a principle that simulates the spatial difference produced by the distance between human eyes. It records pixels at different angles and levels on photosensitive materials, and then uses the composite of grating materials. It presents a three-dimensional effect on a flat image, so that the printed matter will display different contents when viewed from different angles.
Pinhole
Pinhole punching refers to pressing a semi-connected line on the paper. The main purpose is to facilitate tearing of the paper. Commonly found in various tickets, coupons, etc., it is convenient to tear off the secondary roll during use.
