Printing giant Donnelley develops hot gravure process with Creo

Recently, the headlines of the “PRNewswire” report of the United States stated that when Nunnery wanted to combine Creo and Acigraf to develop the first hot gravure printing system, it would serve the US commercial rotation market. This way, in the engraved printing market, the hot gravure process will enable customers to obtain consistent and exquisite prints within shorter delivery times.
The first hot gravure printing press may be installed later this year in the printing shop in Donnerly, Nevada. The company's introduction of this machine is to develop a more compact and exquisite printing process and to print higher-quality prints for customers.
In the past, the graphic of the engraving cylinder was made by electromechanical methods. Innumerable graphic traces were engraved on the cylinder with a diamond engraving pen. This is very similar to other electromechanical processes. The current roller engraving process has many areas for improvement. The new hot gravure printing technique uses laser heads instead of multiple diamond engraving pens, reducing the number of mobile devices. After this improvement, Nunnery will be able to better control the engraving process and improve the quality of the engraving.
John Campanelli, who is responsible for printing at Nellie, said: "Customer success is the core of our business. This is why we frequently update our technology to print high-quality prints for our customers. With hot gravure printing technology, customers will benefit Quite deep."
