Industry Pain Point: Traditional PVC Gravure Printing Machine Fails to Meet Demand, Restricting the Development of Building Material Decorative Film Industry
PVC decorative film, as a key decorative material in the building materials industry, has the advantages of rich patterns, wear resistance, corrosion resistance and low cost, and is widely used in various building decoration scenarios. In recent years, with the increase of large-area decoration needs, the market has put forward higher requirements for the width and printing quality of PVC decorative films. However, traditional PVC Gravure Printing Machine has long been unable to meet these demands, becoming a key bottleneck restricting the development of the industry.
Most traditional PVC Gravure Printing Machine have a maximum printing width of only 1.6-2.0 meters, which cannot directly print large-size building material PVC decorative films. Enterprises need to splice multiple small-width printed films to meet the large-size demand, which not only increases the production process and labor cost but also leads to problems such as obvious splicing seams and inconsistent pattern alignment. In addition, the printing precision of traditional PVC Gravure Printing Machine is low, and the pattern definition is difficult to meet the high-end decorative needs. Relevant data show that the rejection rate caused by splicing and low precision of traditional PVC Gravure Printing Machine in building material PVC decorative film production is as high as 15%-20%, and the production efficiency is only 60% of the expected level. With the increasingly fierce market competition and the rising demand for high-quality building materials, the backward performance of traditional PVC Gravure Printing Machine has seriously affected the profit space and market expansion of enterprises.
