How to calculate ink required for printing layer ?

Image
Liquid Ink = 4 times of dry ink. Assuming 25% solid content in liquid ink. Printing Layer – Pet Film Density – 1.4 Film Micron – 12 Film gsm – 16.8 Job Sample Ink gsm – 1.2 Printing Layer Quantity – 300 kg Dry ink required = (ink gsm x printing Quantity)/printing Layer gsm = (1.2 x 300) / 16.8 = 21.42 (dry ink) Liquid Ink = 4 times x dry ink (solid content of liquid Ink 25%) = 4 x 21.42 = 85.68 kg (Liquid ink) What is Mylar Film? Mylar is actually the name of a popular polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film from DuPont Teijin FilmsTM. Mylar is technically BoPET (biaxially-oriented polyethylene terephthalate). It has been a prominent film in a variety of applications across – electronics – food packaging – industrial specialty – cast & release – graphics markets Due to its balanced tensile properties, good adhesion, excellent moisture and chemical resistance, and ability to withstand temperatures from -100°F to 300ºF. Mylar® polyester films are ideal products for high volume, dependa...

What is Nylon / Poly/ Polymers ?

Image
Density – 1.15 Polyamide (PA), also known as Nylon, is a clear and printable thermoplastic that has a relatively high melting point, exceptional strength and toughness, and good oxygen barrier properties. It is also scratch, puncture, and flex-crack resistant and does not dissolve or absorb grease, oil, and acidic food. These properties make PA ideal for use in conventional and microwave cooking applications. The two most common types are cast and biaxial oriented Nylon film. Biaxial oriented polyamide or BOPA film can be used for a wide variety of applications especially where high gas barrier properties are required. Because of its higher price relative to PVC, PE, and PP film, it is generally considered a specialty film. Application Oil Packaging Grease Packaging Acidic Food Microwave Pouch What is Poly? Density 0.93 Low density polyethylene or LDPE is the largest volume commodity thermoplastic and cheapest packaging film which is used for a wide variety of applications. It is easy ...

What is PET?

Image
Density 1.4 Polyester film is a high-performance, crystal clear thermoplastic made from Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) resin. In comparison with other common plastic films, PET film has high tensile strength, excellent dimensional stability, low moisture absorption, and good retention of physical properties over a fairly wide temperature range. It also has superior UV resistance and excellent electrical properties, and good optical clarity. Because of its higher price relative to PVC, PE, and PP film, it is generally considered a specialty film. PET Film – 150°C (302°F) and as cold as -70°C (-94°F) Properties higher tensile strength excellent dimensional stability low moisture absorption good retention of physical properties over a fairly wide temperature range superior UV resistance excellent electrical properties good optical clarity high gloss good gas barrier moderate moisture barrier Application aroma barrier film (e.g. coffee and tobacco packaging) release films microwave print...

What is co-extruded multi-layer film?

Image
When two or more Polymers are molted simultaneously to form a single sheet of film, that film is known as “Co-Extruded Multi-Layer Film” and process is known as Co-Extrusion. In Flexible Packaging, no single Layer of Film can give all required properties. In order to achieve all selected Polymers were melted in such a way that form a film with Unique Properties of all Films. Co-extrusion is the process where two or more polymers are extruded together to make a composite film. Type of Co-Extruded Plants 3 Layer (most common) 5 Layer 7 Layer 9 Layer 11 Layer The selection of layers depends upon end properties required as well as items to be packed. How to Calculate Trim in Easy step Trim Waste in kg = weight of roll x trim size in mm / roll size Weight of Roll = 325 kg Rolls Size = 875 mm Trim Size = 15 mm Trim Waste in kg = 325 x 15 / 875 = 5.57 kg Trim Waste % = trim size / roll size % Trim Waste % = 15 / 875% = 1.71% How Quickly Calculate Cylinder Size Step by step ...
