Gravure Printing
Gravure Printing
Gravure printing is a widely used printing method that relies on precise ink metering to achieve high-quality results. The doctor blade main job is to control the amount of ink applied to the printing cylinder. If the blade does not function properly, issues such as blade lines, ink dragging, and even cylinder damage can occur, affecting the final print quality. Since there is a variety of gravure printing machines and substrates, common challenges include color inconsistencies, streaks, ink smearing, and plate wear. Multiple factors contribute to these issues, so selecting the right doctor blade is essential for achieving consistent and reliable print performance. Doctor blade materials vary based on printing requirements. Carbon steel doctor blades provide the best cost-performance ratio, which is ideal for applications where high precision is not the primary concern, such as woven bags, construction material packaging, and bulk bags. For these cases, our CB-10 carbon steel doctor blades provides an affordable and effective solution.
