Not listed here are presses outside the accessioned collections, such as two Vandercook proof presses (a Model 4T and a Universal III) that are now earning an honest living in the office printing shop. At some future time, no doubt, they too will be retired into the collections. The Division of Graphic Arts was established in 1886 as a special kind of print collection with the purpose of representing “art as an industry.” For many years collecting was centered around prints, together with the plates and tools that made them. Not until the middle of the twentieth century did the Division begin to collect printing presses systematically. Even more recently, the scope of collecting has been broadened to include printing type and type-making apparatus.

  • Corrugated 101! ! !Corrugated Vs
    Corrugated 101! ! !Corrugated vs. Cardboard! • The term "cardboard box" is commonly misused when referring to a corrugated box. The correct technical term is "corrugated fiberboard carton.”! • Cardboard boxes are really chipboard boxes, and used primarily for packaging lightweight products, such as cereal or board games.! • Corrugated fiberboard boxes are widely utilized in retail packaging, shipping cartons, product displays and many other applications ! requiring lightweight, but sturdy materials.! !Corrugated Composition! Corrugated fiberboard is comprised of linerboard and heavy paper medium. Linerboard is the flat, outer surface that adheres to the medium. The medium is the wavy, fluted paper between the liners. Both are made of a special kind of heavy paper called !containerboard. Board strength will vary depending on the various linerboard and medium combinations.! • Single Face: Medium glued to 1 linerboard; flutes exposed! • Single Wall: Medium between 2 liners! • Double Wall: Varying mediums layered between 3 liners! !• Triple Wall: Varying mediums layered between 4 liners! !Flute Facts! !Corrugated board can be created with several different flute profiles. The five most common flute profiles are:! • A-Flute: Original corrugated flute design. Contains about 33 flutes per foot.! • B-Flute: Developed primarily for packaging canned goods. Contains about 47 flutes per foot and measures 1/8" thick! • C-Flute: Commonly used for shipping cartons. Contains about 39 flutes per foot and measures 5/32" thick! • E-Flute: Contains about 90 flutes per foot and measures 1/16" thick! • F-Flute: Developed for small retail packaging. Contains about 125 flutes per foot and measures 1/32" thick! • Generally, larger flute profiles deliver greater vertical compression strength and cushioning.

PeelMaster is one of the best printers in the medical packaging business, and can provide expert assistance in your design process. No matter what the challenge, we will give our best efforts. However, often it is possible to reduce or eliminate potential problems with proper design in the first place. For this reason, to assist you, we have assembled the following guidelines: 1. PeelMaster uses a web-fed (roll-to-roll) flexographic printing process. 2. We can print up to 4 colors in register on one side of the web, or can print in register on both sides, 2 colors on one side, one color on the other. (Note: Most medical packaging is one or two colors. If more colors are needed, up to 4 colors can be printed on each side of the web–in two print passes–but the image on one side will randomly located on the package.) 3.

  • Tyvek ® Printing Guide
    , China 兽桃 Mask Bag, designed by Shou Tao Tao Mask Bag, designed by Shou DuPont™ Tyvek ® Graphics EMEA Printability Guide Water Resistant Paper-like Light Tear Resistant Recyclable Printable DuPont™ Tyvek ® Graphics EMEA Printability Guide DuPont™ Tyvek® is a popular printing substrate due to its light weight, smooth surface, high dimensional stability, opacity, toughness and durability. Uncoated Tyvek® can be printed using most digital and commercial printing processes. Some digital presses and some aqueous ink jet printers require a special coating. Tyvek® can be printed either sheet or web-fed. Tyvek® can be printed the same way as paper, although some of its physical properties do require special attention. To achieve excellent print quality, both the designer and printer must understand the unique properties and characteristics of Tyvek®. Tyvek® is made of continuous high-density polyethylene filaments. By using heat and pressure, these filaments are bonded into a base material for printing which turns out to be neither paper, cloth nor plastic film, but it integrates the advantages of those three materials. Tyvek® material has a melting point of 135°C and is a water-resistant and non-absorbent material with superior dimensional stability, high strength, and a smooth matt surface. Most traditional printing technologies can be used for Tyvek® printing, as well as some digital printing. The following Tyvek® printing quick reference guidelines have been summarized based on our current knowledge and the relevant contents will be updated

  • Developing and Applying a Selection Model for Corrugated Box Precision Printing Machine Suppliers
    mathematics Article Developing and Applying a Selection Model for Corrugated Box Precision Printing Machine Suppliers Chin-Tsai Lin and Cheng-Yu Chiang * Department of Business Administration, Ming Chuan University, 250 Zhong Shan N. Rd., Sec. 5, Taipei 111, Taiwan; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +886-04-2206-1660-630 Abstract: Corrugated box printing machines are precision equipment produced by markedly few manufacturers. They involve high investment cost and risk. Having a corrugated box precision printing machine (CBPPM) supplier with a good reputation enables a corrugated box manufacturer to maintain its competitive advantage. Accordingly, establishing an effective CBPPM supplier selection model is crucial for corrugated box manufacturers. This study established a two-stage CBPPM supplier selection model. The first stage involved the use of a modified Delphi method to construct a supplier selection hierarchy with five criteria and 14 subcriteria. In the second stage, an analytic network process was employed to calculate the weights of criteria and subcriteria and to determine the optimal supplier. According to the results, the five criteria in the model, in descending order of importance, are quality, commitment, cost, service attitude, and reputation. This model can provide insights for corrugated box manufacturers formulating their CBPPM supplier selection strategy. Keywords: corrugated box printing machine; modified Delphi method; analytic network process (ANP); supplier 1. Introduction Citation: Lin, C.-T.; Chiang, C.-Y. The global e-commerce market is rapidly developing, with exponential growth in Developing and Applying a Selection online and TV shopping as well as demand for global shipping.

  • 8 Paper and Paperboard Packaging M.J
    8 Paper and Paperboard Packaging M.J. Kirwan 8.1 INTRODUCTION A wide range of paper and paperboard is used in packaging today – from lightweight infusible tissues for tea and coffee bags to heavy duty boards used in distribution. Paper and paperboard are found wherever products are produced, distributed, marketed and used, and account for about one-third of the total packaging market. Over 40% of all paper and paperboard consumption in Europe is used for packaging and over 50% of the paper and paperboard used for packaging is used by the food industry. One of the earliest references to the use of paper for packaging food products is a patent taken out by Charles Hildeyerd on 16 February 1665 for ‘The way and art of making blew paper used by sugar-bakers and others’ (Hills, 1988). The use of paper and paperboard for packaging purposes accelerated during the latter part of the nineteenth century to meet the needs of manufacturing industry. The manufacture of paper had progressed from a laborious manual operation, one sheet at a time, to continuous high speed production with wood pulp replacing rags as the main raw material. There were also developments in the techniques for printing and converting these materials into packaging containers. Today, examples of the use of paper and paperboard packaging for food can be found in many places, such as supermarkets, traditional markets and retail stores, mail order, fast food, dispensing machines, pharmacies, and in hospital, catering and leisure situations. Uses can be found in packaging all the main categories of food, such as: r dry food products – cereals, biscuits, bread and baked products, tea, coffee, sugar, flour, dry food mixes, etc r frozen foods, chilled foods and ice cream r liquid foods and beverages – juice drinks, milk and milk derived products r chocolate and sugar confectionery r fast foods r fresh produce – fruit, vegetables, meat and fish Packaging made from paper and paperboard is found at the point of sale (primary packs), in storage and for distribution (secondary packaging).

  • 1 Fibre Box Handbook Glossary Adhesive
    Fibre Box Handbook Glossary A Adhesive: Substance capable of adhering one surface to another. For fiberboard boxes, the substance is used to hold plies of solid fiberboard together, to hold linerboard to the tips of flutes of corrugated medium, or to hold overlapping flaps together to form the joint or to close a box. Anilox System: Inking system used in flexographic presses. B Bale: A shaped unit, usually containing compressible articles or materials, enclosed in a fiberboard container not conforming to the carriers’ rules for a box, or enclosed in other wrapping, and bound by strapping, rope or wire under tension. Banded Unit: A package or palletized load that has a band or bands (usually plastic) applied to it. Bar Code: An identification symbol. Alpha or alpha-numeric information is encoded in a sequence of high-contrast, rectangular bars and blank spaces. The relative widths of these bars and spaces and their sequence differentiate the individual characters that make up the encoded information. Bar codes are “read” by electronic scanners. Basis Weight (of Containerboard): Weight of linerboard or corrugating medium expressed in terms of pounds per 1,000 square feet (msf). Bending: In the expression "proper bending qualities," the ability of containerboard or combined board to be folded along score lines without rupture of the surface fibers to the point of seriously weakening the structure. Blank or Box Blank: A flat sheet of corrugated or solid fiberboard that has been cut, slotted and scored so that, when folded along the score lines and joined, it will take the form of a box.
