Printing tray is an auxiliary tool for printing equipment, its role is to carry printed matter, convenient printing operation. The following is a detailed introduction to the printing tray:
First, the advantages of printing trays
Non-stop paper: the printing tray can be pre-placed paper, and the paper can be loaded without stopping, which greatly improves the production efficiency. This advantage is particularly important for some presses that require continuous operation.
No mold: The printing tray is made of high-quality materials, has good moisture resistance, is not easy to mold, and can keep dry and clean for a long time. This is important for prints that need to be used for a long time, and can avoid affecting the quality of the print because of mold on the tray.
No burrs: The production process of the printing tray is strictly controlled, the surface is smooth, no burrs, and you can avoid scratching the print and blocking the printing press.
Suitable for a variety of printing equipment: the printing tray is suitable for a variety of printing equipment, such as Bost, Heidelberg, High castle, Komori, etc., easy to switch between different equipment. This provides convenience for printing houses using different equipment.
Can be equipped with RFID chip intelligent scanning: the printing tray can be equipped with RFID chip to realize intelligent scanning and induction recognition, which is convenient for tracking and management of printed matter. This feature increases the transparency of the production process and facilitates management and monitoring.
Second, the classification of printing pallets
Fluted tray: A fluted tray is a common printing tray with a groove on the surface that can be used to carry prints of different shapes and sizes. The design of the groove prevents the print from sliding or shifting, thus ensuring the accuracy and stability of the printing operation.
Flat tray: Flat tray is a flat tray with a smooth surface, suitable for carrying printed matter that needs to be placed flat. The production of flat pallets can be made of high-quality materials, such as corrosion-resistant and wear-resistant plastics or metals, to ensure its stability and durability.
Grid tray: A grid tray is a tray with a grid structure that increases air permeability and is suitable for prints that need to be dried quickly. The design of the grid can also improve the carrying capacity of the tray, while facilitating air circulation, which is conducive to the drying and curing of the print.
In addition, according to different use scenarios and needs, printing trays can also be divided into recyclable and single-use types. Recyclable pallets are generally made of materials such as metal or plastic and can be used repeatedly, suitable for long-term, frequent printing operations. Disposable pallets are made of consumable materials, such as cardboard or plastic film, and can be discarded after use. This type of pallet is suitable for short-term projects that are used infrequently or where a large number of pallets are needed.
Third, how to choose the right printing tray
Choosing the right printing tray needs to consider a number of factors, including the material of the print, size, weight, type of printing equipment and frequency of use. Here are some suggestions:
Select the appropriate pallet material according to the material of the print, such as pp or pe. Different materials can be adapted to different print needs.
According to the size and weight of the printed matter, choose the size and type of tray with sufficient carrying capacity. In general, large, heavy prints require the use of stronger, more load-bearing pallets.
Select the appropriate pallet type according to the type of printing equipment and the frequency of use. If the frequency of use is high, it is recommended to choose durable new raw plastic trays; If you use it infrequently or only occasionally, you can choose a single-use recycled plastic trays.
Consider environmental considerations and choose pallets made of recyclable or degradable materials. This helps to reduce the negative impact on the environment.
Weigh in terms of price and quality, and choose the appropriate cost-effective pallet products.
In summary, the printing tray is a convenient and practical auxiliary tool, which is suitable for various printing equipment, which can improve production efficiency, ensure the quality of printed matter and facilitate operation. When choosing the right printing tray, you need to consider a number of factors, including the material, size, weight, type of printing equipment and frequency of use. The correct choice and use of printing trays can greatly improve printing efficiency and quality, and bring more commercial value to the printing plant
