What exactly is "Guka"? It originated from the fan circle culture. After buying idol cards, fans will put on protective shells and stick decorations on the protective shells, which gradually evolved into the "Guka" culture. These handmade cards not only reflect personal aesthetics and preferences, but also have the attributes of collection and gift giving. In the production of "Guka" cultural and creative stickers, UV inkjet technology and self-adhesive material technology have made Guka, a cultural and creative product, widely spread. Let's explore the hidden knowledge of UV inkjet technology and self-adhesive labels behind the popular "Guka".
UV inkjet technology
UV inkjet is an advanced printing technology that uses ultraviolet (UV) light-cured inks. Here are some important information about UV inkjet technology:
1. Fast drying and curing: UV inkjet inks are quickly dried and cured by ultraviolet rays during the printing process. This allows the printed product to be immediately processed, improving overall production efficiency.
2. Wide adaptability: UV inkjet is suitable for a variety of materials, such as synthetic paper, pearlescent film, laser film, transparent BOPP and highly transparent PET materials. This makes it an ideal choice for making "Guka" type cultural and creative stickers, meeting diverse appearance requirements.
3. Excellent printing effect: UV inkjet printing has a convex surface touch similar to screen printing, while achieving high-resolution pattern output and strong detail expression. There are also inkjet printers in the Pulse Industrial 4.0 product ecosystem. The color saturation and stability of the inkjet printer are also excellent, meeting the high visual requirements of cultural and creative stickers.
Characteristics of self-adhesive labels
The production of self-adhesive labels involves multiple process steps, including:
1. Material selection: Self-adhesive labels usually use synthetic paper, PET film or BOPP film as the substrate. These materials have good printing performance and durability.
2. Printing technology: In addition to UV inkjet, self-adhesive labels can also use other printing technologies such as offset printing, gravure printing and flexographic printing. Each technology has its applicable scenarios and characteristics.
3. Lamination and die-cutting: Self-adhesive labels usually need to be laminated to increase wear resistance and waterproofness. After that, the labels are cut into the required shape through a die-cutting process. The wear resistance and waterproof effect of Sinopack self-adhesive labels have also reached the level of industrial products, and it is more than enough to make self-adhesive stickers for Guka.
Some of these stickers also have the characteristics of tear resistance and heat resistance. In short, UV inkjet technology and the characteristic process of self-adhesive labels play an important role in the field of cultural and creative industries, and provide innovative solutions for the production of "Guka" cultural and creative stickers.
