Printing companies can not ignore the post-printing competition

There are many cumbersome processes that must be carried out in order to enter the post-printing stage. Many small and medium-sized printing companies in China are still processing back-end processes through a large amount of labor, which virtually increases the extra costs for the company itself. Therefore, improving the production efficiency of the post-press link is the first to bear the brunt. Post-press force requires the entire industry to work together.

Facing the ever-increasing manpower cost, the intensely competitive market environment and the fast-growing online media, the traditional printing industry at home and abroad is suffering from “bursts of sudden bursts”. Under the great challenge of such a large environment, more and more printing companies began to seek new business opportunities and seek new changes based on reality.
As we all know, when printed products enter the post-printing stage, many tedious processes need to be carried out. Cutting, squaring, binding, and pasting are all indispensable, and many small and medium-sized printing companies in China still rely on a lot of manual back-end processing. Adding additional costs for the company itself. Therefore, improving the production efficiency of the post-press link is the first to bear the brunt. Post-press force requires the entire industry to work together.
Printing companies must identify the weakness and quickly make up for it. First of all, it is necessary to find out the most costly part of the link based on the actual capacity of the post-press link, followed by targeted improvements. In terms of sticking shells, manual processing is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also the continuous increase in employee wages will become a new burden on the company. At this time, companies can choose to introduce a high-speed paste shell machine to break the bottleneck, from point to area to enhance the production efficiency of the entire printing process.
Equipment manufacturers should strengthen cooperation to enhance convergence. The use of connection equipment for production can significantly shorten the post-printing work cycle, but this requires the effective cooperation between major equipment manufacturers to enhance the interface between the equipment and provide convenience for the connection between equipment.
The entire printing industry must also pay attention to talent training. With effective and intelligent post-press equipment, we should pay more attention to the training of skilled personnel. As long as there are stable printing skills talents as the basic guarantee, the equipment can better play its superior performance, which will bring higher efficiency and value to the company.
Faced with the total number of post-press equipment at home and abroad, printing companies often have difficulty making decisions when they choose. For India after the purchase of equipment, India experts also gave sincere advice.
First, we must be forward-looking. The current domestic and international printing industry environment is full of variables. Printing companies must be forward-looking when purchasing equipment, consider the current with future investment perspectives, not only to ensure that newly-purchased equipment can become a current weapon to improve the competitiveness of enterprises, but also to The standard for maximizing investment value is measured in the long run.
Also buy a full-featured device. In the selection of post-press equipment, functionality, production speed, and linearity are important factors that need careful reference. Functionality is the adaptability of equipment, not only to meet the production needs of offset printing equipment, but also to meet the new needs of digital printing links. The production speed represents the production efficiency of the company. Only high-efficiency equipment can help the company win opportunities in the fiercely competitive market, and at the same time, it can also save the high labor cost for the company. Even with the scalability of the equipment, whether the post-press equipment can be connected to other machines, it is very important now and in the future.
In addition, price/performance is also an important factor. China's expert in the post-press field, Wang Huaizhu, a postpress expert, summed up in one sentence: “The same quality depends on the price and the same price depends on the quality.” The printing companies must purchase according to their actual needs and use the funds for “blade”.
The digital transformation has become one of the new directions for the transformation of many domestic printing companies. There are mainly two types of companies that are relatively successful in digitalization in China: one is a quick printing shop that provides urbanization quick printing services for its main business; the other is a printing company that provides clothing tag printing services. The common feature of the two successful models is that instead of emphasizing digital printing processing service capabilities in the implementation process, it focuses on the marketing and service capabilities of the company.
It can thus be seen that as the printing companies take the digital step, they must configure workflows that connect with the front-end and back-end digital post-press equipment, and must focus on new marketing solutions and service capabilities centered on digital printing technology. Over time, it will surely meet the source business opportunities.
In a word, the increase of printing value is, in the final analysis, helping printers to increase their production efficiency and efficiency through certain means. Industry insiders suggested that before the digitalization of printing companies, it is important to consider the traditional business model of the original business before they can be considered. What equipment should be introduced, what products should be processed, and what kind of equipment should be installed must be thought twice.
