Monopigmented UV Ink Mixing Systems for Offset Printing/Letterpress Short response times and production pressure are more and more a part of the daily routine in the graphic industry. Increasing quality demands and ever more unusual customer requests have to be realized at the press. A consequence of this fact has to be the consideration of how special colour shades can be purchased faster and less expensively. The answer is to have an in house ink mixing station with monopigmented ink systems. By being able to rapidly mix precise colour shades in the necessary quantity in house, the printing company will increase flexibility. No delivery delays for spot inks, always the right amount for one job and the reduction of storage costs as well as lower disposal costs for leftover inks are further advantages of an own mixing station. Mixing with Monopigmented Ink Mixing Systems Following many years of positive experience using monopigmented ink mixing systems for container decoration, Zeller+Gmelin now also offers monopigmented ink mixing systems with high colour strength for the offset printing/letterpress sector. Advantages • PANTONE ® shades are easier to match. • Ink mixes have a higher colour strength and are purer, because only the really necessary pigments are used for the mixture. • The higher colour-intensity makes printing with reduced ink lay-down possible. • Reduced dot gain in halftone printing. • More flexibility when adjusting colour strength for special shades. • Less colour deviations between reference sample and mixed ink under changing light sources (metamerism). • The colour-communication between ink manufacturer and his customer will be easier and faster by the usage of monopigmented ink mixing systems. • Mixing recommendations are available for all PANTONE ® mixed shades. • Ink dispensing, mixing and measuring systems with different expansion levels are available. • Reduction of stock expenses. • Lower disposal charges for leftover inks. In our production plants we work with the same monopigmented ink mixing systems. This guarantees a fast and effective colour communication between ink manufacturer and printer. Regardless whether PANTONE ® spot colours or other colour systems have to be mixed, with our high-pigmented ink mixing systems you will always get the best possible result. Also special shades which are independent from a reference-guide are optimal to match. Colour-Management-Service Our experienced team guarantees optimal support and service covering all “ink mixing“ questions. From assistance for specific colour-compositions up to the planning and installation of complete ink mixing stations – Zeller+Gmelin is your right partner. As well as the direct support on your site colourimetrical-trainings at Zeller+Gmelin are included as part of the service. Monopigmented base inks are available for all the following ink series. 3
