HELL Gravure Systems unveils HD Gravure

May 29, 2019 Off By Sebastian Reisig

HD Gravure from HELL Gravure Systems is a new quality standard for packaging gravure.

HD Gravure is the perfect combination of established engraving technology and a whole host of both proven and newly developed, quality-enhancing functions. It improves edge sharpness and the reproduction of fine details in gravure printing. What’s more, narrow engraving tolerances simplify color adjustment in print and result in superior reproducibility. Automatic measurement of critical production parameters enhances process reliability in cylinder manufacture. It also reduces the need for proof prints and thus the costs of cylinder manufacture. The ideal combination of these technologies makes it easy to achieve high-quality, economical results that previously required a huge amount of time and effort. As a result, HD Gravure provides impetus for the major developments in packaging printing – from finer text and shorter print jobs to first-time-right prints, seven-color printing, and efforts to find an alternative to proof prints. HD Gravure is now available for all current engraving machines – from entry level to direct laser engraving. Many older systems can also be retrofitted with HD Gravure.
