| abstract |
A method for producing substrates printed using the rotogravure printing method is specified, using a water-dilutable printing ink system which contains binders polymerizable by actinic radiation, and this water-dilutable printing ink system by means of an engraved or etched gravure cylinder, the size and size of the wells provided for the ink recording Depth are adapted to the respectively desired print image and the colorant / binder concentration set, to which the substrate to be printed is applied. The applied ink system is then dried by radiation sources with polymerization of the binder, so that, if necessary, a second ink layer can be applied directly to the first ink layer. This process produces an indelible, edge-clean print that also appears on the overprinted surfaces in a design-appropriate color tone, which also adheres perfectly. |
