To ensure the clarity and durability of the pattern of the printed custom shipping packaging airplane box, it is necessary to start from the entire printing process and control key links such as materials, processes and post-processing.
As a transport packaging, the airplane box will be subjected to various external forces and environmental influences during the logistics flow. To ensure that its printed pattern is clear and durable, it is not a simple printing operation that can be achieved, but it is necessary to comprehensively consider multiple factors and make various preparations from the source.
The choice of printing materials plays a decisive role in the effect of the pattern. The quality of the ink is crucial. High-quality ink is not only bright in color, but also has stronger adhesion. For example, UV ink with good weather resistance can be used. This ink can be quickly cured under ultraviolet light to form a solid ink film, which can effectively resist rain erosion, friction and scratches, and sun exposure to prevent the pattern from fading and falling off. At the same time, it is also critical to choose printing paper or film materials with good compatibility with ink. If the material and ink do not match, problems such as ink accumulation and poor adhesion may occur, affecting the clarity and durability of the pattern.
Precise control of the printing process is the core of ensuring the quality of the pattern. During the printing process, the accuracy of the printing equipment directly affects the clarity of the pattern. Advanced printing equipment can more accurately control the amount of ink transferred and the printing pressure, making the pattern lines more delicate and the color transition more natural. Taking digital printing as an example, it does not require plate making, and can directly convert digital images into printed patterns, which can achieve high-precision graphic output and effectively avoid the problem of pattern blurring caused by plate making errors in traditional printing. At the same time, the ambient temperature and humidity must be strictly controlled during the printing process. Suitable environmental conditions help the ink to dry evenly and prevent the occurrence of smudges, color differences, etc.
Prepress design and file processing should not be ignored. When designing a pattern, the actual size and shape of the aircraft box should be fully considered to ensure that the pattern proportions are coordinated and the layout is reasonable. At the same time, the resolution of the design file should be high enough, generally at least 300dpi, to ensure that the details of the printed pattern are clear. In addition, the design file needs to be converted to a color mode, converting the RGB mode to the CMYK mode, because the CMYK color system is used in the printing process. The correct color mode conversion can ensure that the printed color is consistent with the design draft and avoid color cast.
The surface treatment process after printing can further enhance the durability of the pattern. Common surface treatment processes include lamination and glazing. Lamination is to cover the surface of the printed matter with a layer of transparent plastic film, which is divided into two types: glossy film and sub-film. After lamination, the pattern is protected by the film, which not only enhances the wear resistance and waterproofness, but also improves the gloss or texture of the pattern. Glazing is to apply a layer of transparent coating on the surface of the printed matter, which forms a bright film after drying, which can also protect the pattern, increase wear resistance and aesthetics.
In the production process, strict quality inspection is also an indispensable link. Each batch of printed products must be sampled and inspected to see whether the clarity, color accuracy, ink adhesion and other indicators of the pattern meet the standards. Friction tests, water resistance tests and other methods can be used to simulate the use scenarios of aircraft boxes in the actual transportation process to test the durability of the pattern. Once a problem is found, the printing process should be adjusted or the material should be replaced in time to ensure product quality.
In addition to the control of the production process, attention should also be paid to the protection of the printed pattern during the storage and transportation of aircraft boxes. Avoid stacking aircraft boxes too high to prevent the bottom boxes from being worn due to pressure. At the same time, the airplane box should be stored in a dry and ventilated environment as much as possible to avoid damage to the pattern caused by adverse environments such as humidity and high temperature.
Only by strictly controlling the printing materials, processes, designs, post-processing, quality inspection, storage and transportation, can the clear and lasting pattern of the printed custom shipping packaging airplane box be effectively guaranteed, so that it can not only play the packaging function in logistics and transportation, but also play a good role in brand promotion and image display.
