What the materials cover

This crash course provides a basic understanding of gravure and flexographic printing, from design to the finished package. The presentation materials explain how both processes compare and which applications suit each of them. They cover image reproduction, colour management, plate making, printing inks, and film surface treatment with corona pretreatment. Sleeves and anilox rollers in flexographic printing, as well as press technology, are also addressed. The materials are useful for newcomers and career changers in the film and packaging industry, as well as for purchasing, marketing, quality assurance and designers who want to identify and avoid errors in development and production.
