The printing industry is a traditional industry, and it can be said to be a never-ending industry. As can be seen from various printed products, the printing industry is bound to become bigger and bigger in the future. Technology is getting more and more advanced. Equipment is getting higher and higher. From the small field of label printing alone, we have already noticed its vast future and the vastness of the market. Below we focus on the development history and future direction of this small field of the printing industry.
In a broad sense, label printing includes self-adhesive label printing, PET label printing, and aluminum foil metal label printing. The main printing processes are in embossing, offset gravure, screen printing and flexo printing. And gradually realize the characteristics of product increase, function automation, and high speed. China is a big industrial production country. It is also a major manufacturing country in the world. So in our country, there is a big label printing market. However, the development of this field in China is still in the growth stage. And in many designs, processes, and equipment, there are problems to be overcome. From a quick perspective, there are still several problems in the field of label printing in China.
First, there is no comprehensive centralized printing base
Because the development history of small and medium-sized enterprises in China is similar. They started from a small workshop in Wenzhou, and then they achieved a scale, which led their neighbors and friends to enter the industry. That is, the home is ignited, and the village smokes. There is really no concentration of advantages and markets to expand innovation in technology and design. This situation initially solves people's living standards and employment problems, but from the perspective of the development of an industry and a field, this is a constraint and constraint. All kinds of small and medium-sized enterprises, the price is big, and there is not much energy investment in technology and equipment. So the entire industry is in a slow development stage. Although the relevant state departments have highly called for small and medium-sized enterprises to concentrate on design and equipment investment, the comprehensive integration of water resources may be just a call, and it will not play a role in the true sense.
Second, high-tech printing talents are few
This situation is a common problem in developing countries. The demand for scientific and technological talents cannot keep up with the rapid growth of the economy. For the printing industry, China is scarce from basic operators to high-level equipment developers. The reform of the current national education mechanism is slowly becoming aware of this. Education must face economic development and be oriented towards scientific development. So now many universities have also opened a printing profession, including printing machinery and equipment, printing technology and so on.
