How the Panotne spot color ink color matching system is applied to label printing

23-04-2021

  As we all know, spot colors are often used in the label printing field, and sometimes the overlap between spot colors is involved. Therefore, the color accuracy of spot colors is an important indicator for evaluating label quality. The accuracy of spot color ink color matching plays a vital role in spot color printing in label printing. However, when most label printing companies need spot color inks, they purchase spot color ink products directly from ink suppliers. At the same time, some spot color inks are deployed by printing companies' ink distributors. There may be many problems with such spot color ink supply method.

  The spot color ink provided by the ink supplier generally has no problems in accuracy and quantification. However, because of the wide variety of spot colors in label printing, if you purchase directly from the ink supplier every time, it will be much higher in terms of cost than the cost of self-provisioning; in terms of time, there will be delays in delivery, resulting in Stopping and waiting will affect production efficiency. In particular, some urgent orders cannot be met.

  And through the ink master to mix spot color inks-this is the method adopted by many label printing companies now, there are the following problems: lack of experienced color matching personnel, high cost; ink color matching master's management problems; spot color ink can not be carried out With data management, the results of personnel deployment in different shifts are different. The difference of different printing materials will also cause an increase in the cost of color matching; a large amount of residual ink will be formed, resulting in a waste of ink cost; the problem of metamerism cannot be identified in advance.

  But the spot color ink color matching system can well solve the problems of the above two methods.

In terms of time: it takes about 8-10 minutes to deploy a spot color ink using the spot color ink color matching system. For many spot color label printing companies, the printing schedule can be solved well without causing downtime. Especially when the amount of spot color is not large, the efficiency is higher.

  From the material point of view: For materials that are relatively close, you can directly fine-tune in the ink color matching software, which is more accurate than relying on the experience of color matching masters.

  In terms of the management of the spot color ink database: the storage and backup of spot color ink data can be standardized, reducing the loss of data that was previously caused by the data not being recorded and recorded on paper in time, and the retrieval of the previous color matching data is also more effective . It will greatly reduce the color difference caused by the inadequate management of color matching and color matching data of different personnel.

  To sum up, the application of spot color ink color matching system in the label printing field is increasing, especially for the daily chemical and electronic label industries, such as Shanghai Zhengwei, Shenzhen Zhengfeng and so on. Because the number of spot colors involved in daily chemicals and electronic labels is very large, sometimes there are 5-6 spot colors in a label, all of which rely on the ink factory to deploy, and the time cost is very high. If you rely on manual deployment, data and personnel management will be combined. It is a relatively large cost. After using the spot color ink color matching system, this problem has been effectively controlled and improved, and the generation of remaining ink can be effectively controlled.
