In a Nutshell Web offset ink is a specially formulated type of ink designed for high-speed printing on web offset presses. These presses print on a continuous roll (a "web") of paper, rather than on individual sheets. The ink's key characteristic is its ability to dry almost instantly through a combination of heat (from dryers) and absorption into the paper. Key Characteristics of Web Offset Ink To function effectively on a fast-moving web press, this ink has several distinct properties: Low Viscosity (Thinness): It is much thinner than sheetfed offset ink. This allows it to be pumped efficiently from the ink reservoir to the rollers and then to the printing plates. Rapid Drying: This is the most critical feature. Web presses run at extremely high speeds (e.g., 3,000 feet per minute). The ink must "set" and dry within a fraction of a second as the paper web passes through a high-temperature drying oven (called a dryer) immediately after printing. Heat-Set vs. Cold-Set: Web inks are primarily categorized by their drying method: Heat-Set Web Ink: The most common type. It contains resins that are solid at room temperature but dissolve in the ink oils when heated. As the printed web passes through the dryer, the heat evaporates the volatile solvents (mineral oils), causing the resins to "set" and bind the pigment to the paper. The web then passes through chill rollers to cool and solidify the ink instantly. Used for: High-quality, glossy magazines, catalogs, advertising inserts, and brochures on coated paper. Cold-Set Web Ink (or News Ink): This ink dries primarily through absorption into the paper, without the need for heat. It is much thinner and has a lower viscosity. Used for: Newspapers, phone books, and other products printed on very porous, uncoated paper stock. Pigmentation: Designed for high opacity and color strength to produce vibrant, consistent images at high speed. The Web Offset Printing Process (Where the Ink is Used) Understanding the process highlights why the ink's properties are so important:   The Roll: A massive roll of paper (the "web") is loaded into the press. Printing Units: The web snakes through a series of printing units (for Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black - CMYK). Offset Principle: In each unit, the ink is applied to a plate (which has the image), which then transfers it to a rubber "blanket" cylinder, which finally offsets it onto the paper. This is the "offset" in the name. The Dryer: Immediately after being printed, the wet web enters a long, hot-air dryer. Chill Rolls: The hot web then passes over chilled rollers, which cool the ink and paper, solidifying the ink instantly. Finishing: The continuous printed web is then folded, cut, and trimmed into its final product (like a signature for a magazine) in-line at the end of the press. Summary Web offset ink is a fast-drying, low-viscosity ink engineered for the massive scale and high velocity of web offset printing. Its ability to transition from a liquid to a solid state almost instantly via a heating and cooling process is what makes the mass production of publications like magazines and catalogs economically feasible.  

Print Area- Ceres EISI Rubber Sucker -applied in offset printing machine(HeidelbergRolandMitsubishiKBA)     USAGE During the paper feeding process of the printing press, the suction nozzle uses negative pressure to adsorb the top sheet of paper in the paper stack, separating it from the stack. This ensures that only one sheet of paper is fed at a time, avoiding paper jams or printing malfunctions caused by feeding two or more sheets.     Supporting Product Gripper Bar Ink Duck Foil   Print Area (Guangdong) Technology Co., Ltd. http://www.printarea.cn H01, Pingzhou Guangping International Trade Park, Guicheng Street, Nanhai District, Foshan City Tel.: +86-18026391301 MAIL:yinya102@enyyink.com

Print Area- Ceres EISI Offset Rubber Roller -applied in offset printing machine(HeidelbergRolandMitsubishiKBA)     USAGE Storage and transfer of ink: The ink roller takes ink from the ink fountain and transfers the ink step by step to the printing plate through the rolling between the rollers. Uniform ink distribution and blending: Through the mutual pressing of multiple ink rollers, the ink is thinned and mixed evenly to form a uniform ink film, avoiding color differences or streaks in printing. Adjust ink volume: Use the ink fountain key (ink adjustment screw) to control the ink output volume, adapting to the ink requirements of different graphic and text areas. Buffering pressure: Absorb mechanical vibrations during the printing process and maintain the stability of ink transfer. Innovate Technology Super wear-resistant composite rubber material: Made of a special formula of polyurethane and nitrile mixed material, it extends the service life of the ink roller by 40%, while maintaining excellent ink affinity and reducing the frequency of cleaning. Intelligent temperature control structure: The built-in heat conduction layer design effectively reduces the accumulation of frictional heat during high-speed printing and avoids color difference problems caused by fluctuations in ink viscosity. Nanoscale surface treatment process: By optimizing the micro-pore structure on the surface of the ink roller through laser engraving technology, the uniformity of ink transfer is improved, and the "glint" and "ink bar" phenomena are eliminated.               Supporting Product Gripper Bar Rubber Sucker Ink Duck Foil   Print Area (Guangdong) Technology Co., Ltd. http://www.printarea.cn H01, Pingzhou Guangping International Trade Park, Guicheng Street, Nanhai District, Foshan City Tel.: +86-18026391301 MAIL:yinya102@enyyink.com

Print Area- EISI Numbering Machine -number machine is a device used to print consecutive numbers on documents or receipts, and is widely used in offices and business environments   USAGE Before using the numbering machine, it is necessary to check whether there are any loose parts of the numbering machine. After checking that there are no abnormalities in the parts, apply appropriate lubricant to the rotating shafts of the number machine and other key parts that need to move. When in use, prepare the ink that matches the numbering machine and then add the ink to it. When adding ink, use an appropriate amount. Otherwise, if there is too much or too little, the handwriting will become unclear. When dialing, the control panel of the automatic numbering machine should be lifted, that is, the metal plate for adjusting the number jump. Then pull the switch to lock the handle, and then push the dial stick forward to number. When dialing a number, only a portion of the digits need to be dialed. For the remaining digits that do not need to be dialed, set the number to zero. Make his number wheel not on the same horizontal line as the other number numbers. When adjusting the numbers, excessive force should not be used; otherwise, it is easy to damage the metal code bars of the number machine. Move the connection key to the appropriate position as required. When the dial key is moved to zero, it indicates that consecutive numbers will not jump. When the hyphen is tuned to two, it indicates that the hyphen will jump only after being typed twice. When the serial number is set to one hour, it indicates that the number will skip each time it is dialed. It should be noted that when moving the tuning key, it needs to be lifted first and then moved to the corresponding position and lowered. When marking numbers, a soft pad should be placed under the automatic marking machine, which can increase its service life. After using the coding machine for a certain period of time, the dirt inside the machine should be cleaned. If it is not cleaned frequently, the coding machine cannot achieve good accuracy and continuity when coding.

Scratch-off Ink Printing Design Variations of Scratch-off Ink Common scratch-off ink prints are in the form of solid color blocks. However, in addition to changing the printed shape, it is also possible to print fine lines or more complex patterns. Because the lines are dense enough, they can still achieve the purpose of covering the underlying print while allowing for more design variations in scratch-off ink.   Overprinting on Scratch-off Ink Text or colorful patterns can be printed on top of the scratch-off ink. Colored Scratch-off Ink Printing The scratch-off ink commonly seen on the market is usually silver or black, which helps to obscure the underlying printed information. However, colors with a silver base such as metallic blue, metallic red, etc., are also possible!   Scratch-off ink can also achieve an optical variable ink (OVI) or optical changeable effect pigments (OCEP) effect. This kind of optical change effect is often used in high-end anti-counterfeit prints such as banknotes. Viewing from different angles will show different color changes, making it very easy to identify. This also requires higher standards in printing technology and materials.   We have 20 years of printing service experience, however, we are very young, we love to learn, we are very enthusiastic!
