whirlwind<br />
in rotogravure printing<br />
New role allocation with Dynacyl<br />
<strong>Janoschka</strong> has developed a new, innovative rotogravure cylinder. With a circumference that can be<br />
varied from 300 to 600 millimetres, Dynacyls have model measurements. Their nine to a maximum<br />
of 25 kilogrammes make them a true featherweight in this sector. With the Dynacyl, <strong>Janoschka</strong> has<br />
revolutionised rotogravure and promoted its long-term competitiveness.<br />
Approximately 60 per cent of all flexible packaging<br />
worldwide is manufactured using rotogravure printing.<br />
It is the process of choice for large print runs. Rotogravure<br />
achieves excellent results on the most diverse<br />
substrates. The digitalisation of some processes means<br />
that time-saving as well as fine colour gradations and a<br />
better smoothing of the text edges have now become<br />
standard. Precise and reliable print colour management<br />
enables the faithful reproduction of the original material<br />
and colour on the proof – the expert know-how of the<br />
engraver and an in-depth consultation beforehand, preclude<br />
unpleasant surprises.<br />
With this tried and tested, highest-quality printing process,<br />
Dynacyl now makes even short runs efficient and<br />
profitable. For the first time in the printing industry, the<br />
new cylinder concept offers a standard product made<br />
from innovative material. Premanufactured and available<br />
immediately, it can be customised as specified for the<br />
application in just a few steps.<br />
With approximately one tenth of the weight of traditional<br />
steel cylinders, Dynacyl makes life easier in many ways.<br />
This reduction in weight is noticeable in the logistics<br />
and, above all, in the handling in the printing press.<br />
Nevertheless, Dynacyl offers a variable circumference<br />
that can be adapted exactly to the desired format.<br />
The flexibility that had been lacking in this technology so<br />
far, has found its way into rotogravure printing, thanks<br />
to Dynacyl. Heavy materials, protracted manufacturing<br />
processes, expensive machines as well as cumbersome<br />
and cost-intensive logistics were disadvantages all associated<br />
with rotogravure printing.
