subject: Ink In The Smart Label Application Is Incredibly [print this page] They have no visual function, has been excluded Print Outside the field. However, the traditional Printing Technology And digital printing technology is now being applied to the Intelligent Label Of production. Although current production is small, and very few, but we believe that in the near future, Ink In Electronic Large-scale manufacturing data products will be incalculable prospects, this application will also be part of changing the types of printing methods and inks.
In Europe, a smart label printing on the meeting, FlintInk ink manufacturers DanLawrence said that, "As technology develops, it will be possible to replace a number of ink Electronic Equipment Growing proportion Electronic component . For IC It may just as we know it, will be fully replaced by ink. "
Printing of this technology has the ability to conduct large-scale Electronic Materials Manufacturing, which entered a sophisticated and cheap electronic components is a new era, is to meet a lot of market demand. Printing industry from the current number of images printed up to the electronics manufacturing products and a very long way to go.
An ordinary printing press or Printer Can suddenly become Make Electronic material equipment. But it is not inconceivable that in a very clean operation room, Heidelberg and other digital Printing Equipment Manufacturers of the presses will be able to produce electronic products.
Printed electronics business is not only a new revolution in the printing industry is the electronics industry revolution. By then, the production of electronic goods will be distributed to the global printing a series of work, the same as the current printing industry, rather than the micro- Chip And integrated circuits, as only a few large manufacturers can produce.
Smart labels in the world market, mainly in the supervision of electronic goods (EAS) and radio wave identification ( RFID ) System. EAS is mainly used in Retail Anti-theft devices, and RFID is primarily used to describe and track through the supply chain, bulk cargo.
New smart label printing inks another major market is in the diagnosis of applications. For example, in some display of temperature, pressure, light and humidity of the device and detect viruses, bacteria, and fumes of the device. It has been developed in the temperature photochromic or photochromic ink, with the ink after light treatment, disinfection, or solidification with color change. In Hospital , The type of ink printed labels can be used to test medical devices and equipment clean and disinfected condition.
The Ford Motor Company, due to suspended material polyurethane (a kind of Paint ) In Production Line After a heat curing treatment at the time, staff is difficult to correctly judge whether solidified just right, so there will be many Vehicle Quality tests, led to the recall of vehicles, big losses. They adopted a Special Ink The company. In the solidification front, a self-adhesive for Cycle 'Point "has been added to every part of the beginning of these points is pink, after the correct time of heat curing turned black. In the effective way to remove uncured part of the processing time, the Ford Motor Company has been proved in practice this method reliability.
Some ink smart labels can help people determine the sun's rays on the skin whether it is appropriate to prevent exposure. Mainly some stickers, your skin may be Test The solar intensity on a certain type of skin Security The bottom line, more than the strength of stickers will be color.
Intelligent ink prospect is very impressive, but the current application of intelligent ink, there are still many technical obstacles. Some obstacles are not ink itself, but the printing problem. The more intelligent ink, printing with them more difficult. For example, used in low temperature heat-sensitive ink used in printing is difficult because of the environment must be printed at room temperature.
Another problem is cost. In the past decade, an average price of RFID tags from 100 U.S. dollars to 1 U.S. dollars, and expected to fall to lower levels, at which it will be more competitive than the electronic sheet.
