PRAVR for Publication Gravuree Inks


Typically used when high quality and sharp, fine lines are necessary, gravuree printing is a type of intaglio printing, using copper cylinders that rotate within a gravuree-ink-filled pan, which subsequently transfer an image onto the surface material.


The gravure inks themselves have a very low viscosity and are solvent-based and water-based. In the printing process, the ink actually dries before the paper reaches the next printing station, in order to allow for smudge-free overprinting. A gravure printing ink must print from a fine line screen, and for a good gravuree ink to be created, it must begin with a high-quality acrylic polymer.
