Looking at the Development of Postpress Processing from the Change of Printing Market

After the development of “6th Five-Year Plan”, “Seventh Five-Year Plan” and “Eighth Five-Year Plan”, China’s printing industry has been printing technology and equipment under the guidance of the 16-character principle of “Laser photocopying, electronic color separation, offset printing, and binding linkage”. The prepress and printing technologies and equipment have achieved remarkable results. Leading companies have drawn attention from the development of lead stencils, photolithography, lead printing, laser photocopying, electronic color separation, color desktop systems, and offset printing. Post-press processing, mainly books and magazines binding, also from simple to complex, from manual to semi-mechanized, mechanized, automated development, especially the bookbinding machinery has greatly improved the level of linkage. However, compared with prepress and printing, the development is still quite slow. The mechanization of post-press processing in the entire industry is not high enough, and the level of automation is even lower. Of course, it is undeniable that in the late 1980s and early 1990s, a new generation of high-level LQD8D saddle stitching motives, ZXJD440 type paper binding machines, microcomputer-controlled QZK paper cutters, and hybrid folding sheets were developed one after another. Machine series, SXZ440B automatic sewing machine, BBY40/5 disc packer and other advanced binding machines. Take the OZK series program-controlled paper cutting machine produced by Shanghai Shenweida Machinery Co., Ltd. as an example, its appearance, function and safety protection have reached a very high level. The microcomputer control system adopts the most advanced 10in color display screen and man-machine dialogue control system. The information storage capacity is large. It can monitor the whole process of the cutting process, and promptly record the maintenance and troubleshooting. The pressure adjustment of the hydraulic platen is convenient, and the precision and speed of cutting are obviously improved. The safety measures comply with the European CE standards and the appearance has a sense of the times. But on the whole, the gap in the development of binding machines is still large. Another important aspect of post-press processing is the surface decoration technology of printed products, such as laminating, glossing, embossing, die-cutting, bronzing and other reprocessing techniques. With the deepening of reform and opening up, the marked improvement in people’s living standards and the rapid expansion of foreign trade, commodity packaging and decoration are getting more and more attention. The surface decoration technology of printed products often plays a role in the final quality and effect of packaging and decoration products. The very crucial role, though it can not change the color of printing and graphic arts, but it can greatly improve the artistic effect of printed products, give print products with new functions, become an important means of printing value-added and promotional products. The large increase in market demand has made the surface decoration technology and equipment of printing products, which were very backward or even blank, quickly become a hot spot for development, and has become the most significant part of the post-press processing changes. The traditional ready-to-apply coating adhesive materials are being replaced by high-quality environmentally friendly new adhesives to meet the requirements of future products that are beautifully processed, green, and aseptic. The precoating laminating technology and equipment with good coating quality and high automation level have also entered the initial stage. The development of glazing technology and equipment is also very fast, and the development of glazing coatings is very noticeable, especially various new glazing coatings, such as dispersed water-based glazing, UV glazing, and electron beam glazing The use of such, so that the glazing technology has entered a new period of development, the production and use of the printing glazing machine motives show that the glazing equipment has reached a new level. Die-cutting indentation, embossing and embossing, and bronzing technology are more and more widely used in the manufacture of commodity packaging boxes. This type of equipment, especially the development and research of die-cutting and bronzing machines. Basically changed the long-term dependence on imports, and has a considerable number of exports, TYM720-TYM1050 series automatic flat pressing hot stamping die-cutting machine produced by Shanghai Yahua Printing Machinery Co., Ltd., performance is close to the world advanced level. The folder-gluer has also developed from scratch. Obviously, the development of surface decoration technology and equipment for printing products is entirely due to the stimulation of domestic market demand and development. However, for a long time in the past, many large and medium-sized book printing and printing companies have compressed and bound their books, redirecting binding operations to rural township enterprises, and shifting their financial and human resources to prepress or introducing offset printing machines to enhance color printing. Due to the lack of funds, township and village enterprises mainly use cheap labor in rural areas. Manual and backward machinery are generally used to bind books and books. The market for domestic binding machines is not very demanding, which has caused the development of domestic binding machines to be greatly affected. Due to the low technical level and manufacturing quality of domestic binding machines, the main production is medium- and low-end equipment, which cannot meet the demand for bookbinding and development. This has led to a large number of state-owned large-scale printing companies that are well-funded to import foreign advanced binding machines at a high price, thus creating a vicious cycle. The development of binding machines has entered a trough with a few exceptions.
In recent years, with the development of China’s economy and the improvement of people’s consumption, people are desperately in need of more high-grade prints. The exquisite binding of foreign print publications also makes the demands of domestic publishing circles and readers increasingly demanding fine binding. In response to this demand, publishers have pushed forward the fine strategies of books and magazines, and people in the industry have come to realize that printing is a systematic project. There is no advanced post-press processing equipment that is compatible with advanced prepress and printing equipment. It is impossible to produce high quality products. Highly-produced, beautifully packaged prints and well-designed publications. More and more people of insight have realized that the development of post-press processing technology and equipment cannot be neglected. The market for post-press processing will become larger and larger, the technological content will become higher and higher, and the quality requirements will become more stringent. Relying on the township and township enterprises, the sea tactics have not adapted to the needs of printing products from low-level to high-level and fine-quality development. Many printing manufacturers are restoring or strengthening the original binding department, and more printing manufacturers are calling for domestic post-press processing equipment. Manufacturers can improve product quality as soon as possible, adapt to market needs, and produce more high-quality, high-efficiency, reliable, and stable post-press processing machinery.
There is no doubt that post-press processing is the weakest link in China's printing industry. Whether it is technology, equipment, materials, or management, there is a large gap between it and foreign advanced companies. In the era of entering the era of knowledge economy at the turn of the century, the market has changed more rapidly, and the requirements for bookbinding and product packaging are even higher. In recent years, with the transformation of people's understanding and the expansion of market demand, post-press processing equipment has achieved certain development. This was at the end of last year in Shanghai “99 International Exhibition on Printing Technology, Electronic Publishing and Postpress Processing Equipment”, Shanghai Asia. Several new products developed by China Printing Machinery Co., Ltd. are evident. TYM780L laser holographic marking hot stamping machine is specially used for hot stamping anti-counterfeit marking equipment, but it still has ordinary die-cutting, embossing and hot stamping functions. The machine uses a programmable logic controller (PLC) to control the transport length and thickness of the holographic film. The input data is collected by the intelligent operation display screen, and then the data is sent to the PLC by the communication module; the fiber head and the amplifier are used. The optical fiber sensor correctly tracks the cursor on the holographic film, and the signal is sent to the PLC through the amplifier; the tension control controls the magnetic powder brake to generate the braking torque, so that the foil is kept at a constant tension and the aluminum foil is conveyed. The PLC processed signal is input to the servo motor to control the motor. The start, speed, and brake make the motor always in its best condition. Another example is their newly developed MW1050A II high-speed automatic die cutting machine, the machine has a good dynamic performance and high die-cutting accuracy (up to +- 0.10mm), it is controlled by the PLC programmable controller and LCD touch screen operation Faults can be displayed in Chinese. The machine adopts advanced technologies such as variable frequency speed control. Another example is Shanghai Shen Wei Da Machinery Co., Ltd. newly developed 2200mm ultra-large size paper cutting machine, in the world, only two companies can produce, it solves the current packaging company large size paper, honeycomb paperboard cutting needs. Shanghai Ziguang Machinery Co., Ltd. has developed a new generation of new products such as perfect binding machines and saddle-stitching production lines to meet the urgent needs of printing companies and exporters. According to statistics, in the past two years, the demand for post-press processing equipment has increased significantly in China. Only a dozen of hard-packed production lines have been imported, and dozens of paperback perfect binding machines have been imported. Many sewing machines have also been imported. How post-press processing machinery companies seize the market's increased demand for post-press processing machinery and increase market share is necessary both now and in the future. As China's forthcoming "entry to the WTO" accelerates its integration into the global economic integration process, the developed countries will use their advantages in science and technology and economy to make China's printing industry and printing machinery manufacturing industry face unprecedented pressure and challenges. Packaging and Printing Industry Will be subject to the impact of wholly foreign-owned packaging and printing companies, printing of books and publications will also gradually open. The participation of foreign-funded enterprises will generally bring abundant capital, advanced technology and equipment, and scientific management and management mechanisms, which will drive the improvement of the domestic printing industry, but it will also lead to the domestic printing companies because they squeeze the Chinese printing market. competition. And foreign advanced printing equipment (including post-press equipment) and printing equipment, with the substantial reduction of import tariffs, reduced investment in imported equipment for the printing industry, reduced printing costs, and at the same time formed strong competition for printing machinery manufacturing industry, but we It can also take this opportunity to introduce advanced technology and equipment, enhance its own strength, and improve the quality level of domestic printing machinery, so that China's printing machinery will increase its market share in the domestic market and enter more international markets. In short, after China's accession to the WTO, there will be changes in the domestic printing and printing press markets. If we ignore this change, we will give up this huge market. Therefore, we must fully recognize the sense of urgency and crisis we face. To pressure, seize opportunities, meet challenges, develop themselves, speed up the establishment of a modern enterprise system, change the operating mechanism according to the requirements of a market economy, and change from a simple and extensive traditional production method to a modern business model of technology, talent, and capital intensive as soon as possible. While strengthening technological innovation. In this regard, Shanghai Electric Group Printing & Packaging Machinery Co., Ltd. is at the forefront. They have introduced foreign capital, advanced technology and equipment, and foreign advanced management technologies, which have greatly improved their overall strength and have developed a batch of one after another. High-tech new equipment, especially electromechanical integrated post-press processing equipment, has become China's most important medium and high-grade post-press processing equipment production base, not only greatly increasing the domestic market share, but also into the international market. With the advent of the era of knowledge economy, computer technology, network technology, and multimedia technology have enabled the rapid development of e-books, online books, and e-commerce. Digital networked printing, personalized on-demand printing, and short-range color printing have made the traditional printing industry more and more popular. Faced with unprecedented challenges, it also encountered unprecedented opportunities for development. Facing this opportunity and challenge. Foreign developed countries are vigorously developing high-tech, such as digital transmission, long-distance receiving plate making and direct printing. Post-press processing has also become a hot spot for development. The internationally renowned Heidelberger Printing Machinery AG has acquired Stahl (which mainly produces advanced folding machines) at a high price, and has taken over the management of Baolong, including post-press processing equipment. The printing equipment department established the Heidelberg Postpress Business Unit, which is based in Dayton, United Kingdom and Slough, United Kingdom. It is mainly responsible for the development of the post-press processing market in the areas of bookbinding systems, book binding, newspaper packaging and delivery equipment. To become the world's leading supplier of print binding systems in 2000. Post-press processing equipment was integrated into Heidelberg's production process and realized Heidelberg’s dream of “prepress, printing and postpress integration”. In recent years, as the demand for the color short-run printing market has increased, glazing has become more widely used. Heidelberg has successively introduced an on-line coater and a separate coater, which shows that Heidelberg has developed a great deal of determination after printing. Due to the high price of labor in developed countries and the large demand in the post-press market, the level of mechanization and automation in post-press processing is relatively high. In the early 1990s, most of the bookbinding equipment was automated and computerized, and computer-aided preparation became The main features of the new generation of binding equipment, which makes the adjustment of auxiliary time, less maintenance time, binding more flexible and adaptable to adapt to the extremely rapid development of the printing market demand. Some vendors are speeding up the testing of CIP3-compliant methods, integrating the binding jobs into pre-press, post-print, and post-press computer control systems. As a result, digitalization and networked operations will soon become more than just a trend!
In response to the changes in the domestic and international printing market and the status of China's post-press processing, the country put forward the goal of “multiple automation after printing” in the 28-character guideline, and pointed out that there is still a big gap between the post-press processing equipment and the world’s advanced level. The main performance is that the post-press processing technology is relatively single, the work performance and automation degree of the equipment need to be improved; the stability, reliability, quality automatic detection and automatic control technology of the equipment are basically still blank. Therefore, it is necessary to automate post-press automation as future
