The CTP platemaking (matching with digital proofing) process occupies most of the market share in overseas developed countries and regions, but the promotion speed in China is not fast. The main reason is that in addition to the higher price of CTP equipment and the plate materials used, there is also a solution to digital The consistent color management of proofing and traditional proofing also requires higher costs.
Now equipment manufacturers are making concerted efforts in several directions, trying to break through the above bottlenecks as early as possible. One is the use of relatively durable and cheap light sources such as violet laser; the second is the use of various plate-free processing technologies; the third is to speed up the localization and scale of the plate; the fourth is to increase the number of colors in the digital proofing machine and strengthen the source, process, Color management of terminal equipment, so that traditional printed products can easily catch up with the effects of digital proofing.
1. The future development of CTP
In view of China's special national conditions and the order of CTP promotion, the author made the following predictions in 2006 and still insists.
(1) With the rapid and healthy development of China's economic, political and cultural undertakings, CTP (matching with digital proofing and color management) as an advanced process technology will surely be promoted and popularized comprehensively and gradually.
(2) From a geographical perspective, the order of CTP promotion will be: developed regions in the southeast coast-central region-less developed western region. In their respective regions, the promotion of CTP will begin with developed and advanced central large cities, and then radiate to surrounding areas and jump to small and medium-sized cities.
(3) From the perspective of printed products, the order of CTP promotion will be: newspapers-packaging and decoration-periodicals-books-picture albums-political books, picture magazines.
(4) From the perspective of a specific printing enterprise, enterprises with strength, financial resources and scale will introduce scale in one step. Inferior companies will follow up on a small scale, while retaining the traditional plate-making process; or the introduction of CTcP process (you can use the general PS version and the company's original washing equipment). CTcP, as a transition, modification and substitute of CTP process, has a broad market space in China, especially among small and medium-sized enterprises.
2. Advice on CTP
Regarding the current status and future development of CTP, I think:
(1) At present, the output of CTP plates in China is increasing year by year, but the proportion of total output of offset plates is still small; among the brands with better sales in the market, foreign-funded and joint venture brands are still the main ones.
(2) There are many varieties of CTP plate materials from the beginning, new varieties are still emerging, and each has its own short and long, and printing companies should choose the right one to use.
(3) The accelerated localization of the production of the three major international plate material giants in China has driven down the price of CTP plate materials, but most CTP users are still dissatisfied and expect more room for price reduction. However, the aluminum base of the CTP plate still needs to be imported, and the rise in international aluminum prices is not conducive to the decline in the price of the CTP plate.
(4) Various processing-free CTP plates are worthy of attention. The processing-free plate material has many advantages such as cost saving, simplified work flow and environmental protection, so it is becoming the darling of the CTP plate material market and is highly favored by users.
3. Learn from the introduction of the PS version
(1) We should negotiate with foreign businessmen to directly introduce advanced high-end technology and equipment, instead of following the path of repetition from the low end, we should take the so-called leap-forward development path.
(2) Strengthen the environmental assessment of imported projects to prevent the transfer of various types of pollution.
Vigorously develop CTP plate materials with independent intellectual property rights, which is the fundamental of the hope and future of the plate material industry.
