Influence of Printing Substrate on Quality of Line and Text Reproduction in Flexography

This study characterizes and compares the parameters of quality reproduction fine elements in flexography on coated uncoated paper as well OPP film (oriented polypropylene). A monochrome test form was created printed using cyan UV ink. The analysis results confirms importance interaction between printing substrate ink; it also indicates identical line text deformations print. Quality is higher relation to for all research parameters. ink penetrates significantly more with irregularity into pores throats paper, which less homogeneous elements, such way that loses its original shape. In film, spreads area gives a However, due surface spread ink, biggest changes size are noticeable film. scientific contribution this based comparison print can contribute optimization production process final graphical product.
