TYPES OF FLEXOGRAPHIC INKS
CHOICE OF SUBSTRATE IS ALSO ONE OF THE MAIN FACTORS IN INK SELECTION.
SUBSTRATES CAN INCLUDE:
4 COMMON TYPES OF FLEXOGRAPHIC INKS
HERE ARE SOME MORE DETAILS ON THESE TYPES OF INKS, AND WHAT
APPLICATIONS THEY'RE BEST FOR:
1. WATER BASED
2. SOLVENT BASED
3. ULTRAVIOLET (UV) AND ELECTRON BEAM (EB)
4. OIL BASED
FLEXOGRAPHIC INKS ARE SEPARATED INTO TWO CLASSIFICATIONS:
VOLATILE AND ENERGY CURABLE.

LABELPRINTING AND MANUFACTURING PROCESS
THERE ARE FOUR STAGES IN A TRADITIONAL LABEL MANUFACTURING PROCESS,
THESE ARE:
1. PREPARING LABEL STOCK
2. PRINTING
MUST HAVE A CLEAR UNDERSTANDING OF GRAPHIC ARTS
3. CONVERTING
OTHER CONVERTING TECHNIQUES
LABEL MEASUREMENT :
WIDTH (W) X LENGTH (L)
4. FINISHING
LABEL ROLL SIZE:
QUALITY , TESTING & INSPECTION
COMMON LABEL QUALITY ISSUES
A) POOR PRINT QUALITY
B) ADHESIVE ISSUES
C) DIE CUTTING ISSUES
D) OTHER COMMON ISSUES
COMMON TESTING PROCEDURES
1. COLOR MATCHING
2. CALIPER (MICROMETER)
3. PEEL ADHESION
4. CHEMICAL RESISTANCE
5. WEATHERING
6.IR SCANNER (TO DETECT CHEMICAL COMPOSITION)
7.SHEAR RESISTANCE (COHESIVE STRENGTH)
8.OPACIMETER (MEASURING OPACITY)
9.MATERIAL SHRINKAGE (AFTER HEAT AGING)
