The Art of Making Ink Talk: How is Gravure Done with Hell Machines?

Here we come to the heart of the matter. This is where the design meets steel and copper and turns into a concrete printing tool: Gravure. This process is the final and most critical touch that determines how the ink will appear on the paper.

A good gravure transfers the ink at an "optimum" level. This means it neither overflows and stains nor is it insufficient and leaves the color faded. It's exactly as it should be. To achieve this, you need two things: a master operator and a flawless machine.

Our Ace: Hell K500 and K405 These machines are the industry benchmark. They engrave even the most complex designs and the finest details onto the cylinder with unerring precision. We use this technology to increase our production speed and reliability. The result? Your waste rate in printing decreases, your production speeds up, and your quality becomes standardized.

Gravure is the art of making ink talk. We perform that art with the best tools.
