Third, the main problems (a) relative surplus of production equipment or relative excess production capacity, resulting in some gravure printing equipment can not be fully exerted.
Mainly due to changes in the company's products, the original equipment has not been adapted, the equipment can not play a role, or because of changes in corporate affiliation, business channels are interrupted.
In addition, many cigarette factories, instant noodle factories, detergent factories and other organizations are grouped, and the group has set up packaging and printing companies so that the original gravure printing factories that are supporting them cut off or reduce their living resources, such as Qingdao and Beijing.
(2) Some enterprises have unstable product quality and increased costs.
The main reason for the instability of quality is the incompleteness of the operation technology of the gravure printing process, inadequate training of workers, and frequent replacement of raw materials.
In some areas, in particular, some small gravure printing plants are mostly family-run enterprises. Most of the materials used are external products, which are not produced in accordance with operating procedures. The products are of low quality and there are serious hidden dangers.
The main reason for the increase in costs is the increase in short-lived livelihoods, the significant decrease in long-term livelihoods, and the marked increase in the frequency of proofing and machine replacement products.
For a smaller number of orders, the wide version of the equipment is obviously inferior to the narrow version in terms of cost.
(3) At present, the vast majority of plastic gravure printing plants use solvent-based inks and do not use water-based inks for printing. Most companies do not have solvent recovery devices, affecting environmental protection, and are not conducive to food and pharmaceutical packaging. Especially after joining the WTO is not conducive to the export of these products.
(4) Some gravure printing companies have pressed each other's prices in order to compete for customers, especially in some small gravure printing plants. There are even individual companies taking feeds and selling products without invoicing, tax evasion, and processing with inferior materials to lower prices and compete for customers.
Fourth, measures and countermeasures (A) Strengthen strategic research and take the initiative to adjust.
In the first ten years of the new century, China’s economy will continue to maintain its momentum of rapid growth. The rapid and healthy development of the national economy will create extremely favorable conditions for the development of the packaging and printing industry. The packaging and printing industry will be in an unprecedented period of structural adjustment. It is imperative to adjust the compression of low-end excess printing capabilities. Therefore, every company should strengthen strategic development research, study its own position in structural adjustment, study its own position in the country, its own industry, and its own region; study the development trend of the industry; analyze its own What are the advantages of analyzing the situation of peer competitors and their positions in competitors? In-depth reflection on the application of high-tech development, deepening reforms, separation of government and enterprises, gradual elimination of industry administrative barriers, and development of specialized division of labor and collaboration. What impact does the company have? The direction in which one's own business should develop should be judged realistically. According to the situation of one's own enterprise, it is proactive to carry out structural adjustment and product adjustment. The most important thing is that business operators must first change their concepts, earnestly increase market awareness, open up new markets, and develop new products. This is an effective way to solve production tasks and benefits. Only by conscientiously doing a good job of product and market development will we be able to get rid of the temporary difficulties and enter the track of sound development. Kunming Color Printing Co., Ltd. has very good experience in this respect.
(2) Accelerate the certification of ISO9000 standards and follow the international gravure packaging printing market as soon as possible.
After China's accession to the World Trade Organization, the packaging and printing industry will have more frequent cooperation with foreign countries. There will be more foreign orders for China to do. In particular, the three major categories of packaging for medicine, clothing, and industry need to be in line with international standards.
Through the implementation of the ISO9000 series of standards and gravure packaging product quality management certification, gravure packaging companies can find an effective way to accelerate the change of operating mechanism, strengthen the technical foundation and improve internal management, so that the enterprise's market competition and quality awareness have been strengthened. Ultimately improve product quality and service quality, so as to achieve the goal of expanding domestic sales and exports.
(C) Actively develop and promote water-based inks to meet the requirements of environmental protection.
Judging from the experience of Europe in the past 10 years, compared with the use of solvent-based inks, there are currently two major problems in the use of water-based inks for gravure printing. First, the printing quality, especially the brightness of the printed products is slightly poorer; second, the printing speed is reduced. Usually the same gravure printing machine uses aqueous ink at a rate 15 to 25% lower than when using solvent ink. Paper currently uses a large number of water-based inks for gravure printing, which presents great difficulties. However, Japan has made great efforts in the development and development of water-based inks in recent years and has made great progress.
When I visited Japan in 1998, I visited Japan Special Paper Co., Ltd., which owns 14 gravure printing lines (the largest gravure printing company in Japan). At that time, the company was cooperating with Dainippon Screen Co., Ltd. Water-based inks are used for gravure printing and have achieved remarkable results. Prints can reach 150-170 lines.
China must also work hard in this regard and strive to make breakthroughs in the use of water-based ink in recent years.
(D) Adhere to continuous technological innovation and innovation.
The continuous development of high-tech will bring revolutionary changes to the packaging and printing industry. Enterprises should adhere to technological progress and innovation. Use high technology to enhance the competitiveness of enterprises and pay attention to the application of new technologies, new processes, and new materials that are conducive to environmental protection and resource reuse. Actively eliminate backward processes and equipment, and use advanced printing technology, equipment and processes to transform the traditional printing industry.
For example, some companies' existing gravure printing equipment has been put into use for many years, and it needs to be replaced. Especially after many years of practice, people have a more accurate understanding of the gravure printing equipment and will generally use equipment with a higher technological content.
(e) Accelerate the development and creation of a strong and highly qualified workforce.
In the era of knowledge economy, talent has become a decisive factor. We need to establish a highly creative and talented management talent team through training, recruitment, and selection, and a team of technicians with both experience and knowledge to provide talent support for the reform and development of intaglio printing companies.
In summary, China's packaging and printing industry will have greater development with the development of China's market economy. Especially after China's accession to the WTO, some products will go abroad and go global, and the packaging and printing industry will be used as a production industry. The bridge between consumption and consumption will surely have a big development. (Tai Jun Jun)
