In daily life, we frequently encounter various tinplate cans, such as tea canisters and cookie tins. These cans have a rich history in printing technology. Today, Jin Yu Tin Can Manufacturing utilizes an automated tinplate printing line with a two-color thermosetting ink printing machine, achieving efficient and environmentally friendly printing. Let's explore the history of tinplate can printing and the advantages of Jin Yu's automated printing line.
The History of Tinplate Printing
Tinplate, also known as tin-coated iron, is valued for its excellent malleability, corrosion resistance, and aesthetic appeal, making it widely used in the canning industry. Tinplate canning began in Europe in the early 19th century, and this technology was introduced to China in the early 20th century.
Early Stage: Hand Printing
In the initial stages, tinplate can printing was done manually. Workers applied ink to a patterned plate and then transferred the design to the tinplate surface through pressure. This method was inefficient and challenging to maintain consistent print quality.
Development Stage: Offset Printing
With advancements in printing technology, offset printing began to be used for tinplate cans in the 1950s. Offset printing offers simplicity, speed, and clarity, gradually replacing hand printing.
Modern Stage: Automated Printing
In recent years, the canning industry in China has rapidly advanced. Jin Yu Tin Can Manufacturing has introduced an automated tinplate printing line, achieving automation and intelligence in tinplate can printing. This production line uses a two-color thermosetting ink printing machine, which not only improves production efficiency and reduces costs but also ensures high product quality and environmental performance.
