Abstract:

Ink transfer onto the printed surface is provided by parameters as follows: dampening solution in ink emulsification level, dampening solution parameters as long as its ingredients and their exact dosing, dampening solution transfer features between fountain rollers, blanket and printing plate and printed material surface characteristics, thickness and volume of ink on the printing plate, level of ink setting on the imprint. Deviations in transfer from the optimal parameters cause the negative consequences. On the other hand there are hardly any new approaches in explanations of mutual influence of the technological environment parameters in the printing contact which results in lowering the printing process effectiveness while printing with minimal layers of ink-water emulsion. In this article the mutual influence correlations of the printing contact technological environment characteristics are revealed, allowing operating the minimal layers of ink-water emulsion on high-productive machines while normalizing the color reproduction and imprints’ quality.
