In order to be familiar with the types of graphic printing for
when you need to consult us for the production of certain work,
we indicate below some of the most widely used methods for
graphical production and the respective characteristics of each.
OFFSET
It is the most common method of
printing in the printing industry
and used by most companies that
provide printing services on a
large scale. The Offset printing is
a great option when you need
economy
and
large
print
runs.
Basically the system uses the print
engraved
on
a
metal
plate
transferring the ink onto the paper
through rubber rollers image.
DIGITAL PRINT
Since
the
digital
print
was
introduced has gained a lot of the
graphics
market,
due
to
its
agility and also the ease of the
printing
process,
because
the
images are transferred directly
from computer to paper, in the same way that personal printers
we have at home . This type of printing is cost effective for
small quantities.
TAMPON PRINTING
The
Tampon
Printing
is
a
recording method used for a small
number of colors or flat or
rounded
surfaces
into
pieces
using a buffer of silicone that
transfers
ink
from
a
plate
containing
the
matrix
(boilerplate) to the article, for
example, ballpoint, lighters, key rings, mugs, usb's and more.
SERIGRAPHY
The Serigraphy is one of the
oldest methods of printing this
list. It is a process of direct
printing one or more colors on
flat
materials,
using
silkscreen paintings on silk on
which the screen is photographed photolithography that contains
your image. This technique allows printing on various types of
items such as: t-shirts, polos, bags, umbrellas, rain, stickers
and many others.
It
is
a
printing
method
that
features great quality and
durability
however
has
its
disadvantages
such
as
the
collection be taken both by
color and by size, ie how many
more
you
have
the
more
expensive color printing is,
it is not possible to make
shadows and gradients and is
only
useful
for
large
quantities.
DIGITAL TRANSFER / FLEX
The Flex is a good option
mainly for rush jobs, small
amounts and allows printing multiple colors although their
quality is lower than the serigraph.
It is a white film on which printed the image on a eco-solvent
printer of high quality, the image is cut through the plotter
because the image is inserted into a cut line where you will
spend the blade. After completing this process, the flex is
applied to t-shirts (or other products) through a hot press.
