Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ink detection, in particular to digital printing ink detection equipment. Background Art
[0002] Ink is one of the important consumables in the digital printing process and one of the main components of the printing cost of a printing company. The quality of ink performance directly determines the printing efficiency and quality of a printing company. The temperature of printing ink will vary greatly with the change of room temperature. For example, if the ink temperature is too low, the viscosity will increase, making the printed pattern incomplete, the line broken and the hue difficult to control. When the temperature is too high, the viscosity will decrease, and bubbles will easily form in the ink cavity, making it easy for air to mix into the ink, deteriorating the wetting of the plate cylinder, and causing flying white and uneven thickness. Therefore, it is often necessary to detect the ink absorption and concentration. When performing various tests on it, it is necessary to detect the ink concentration through an ink concentration detector and the ink absorption through a whiteness meter. Before the ink absorption test, it is also necessary to sample the ink and pass the ink wiping table to make the sampled ink relatively evenly distributed. This results in more operating procedures and relatively more instruments required, and its cleaning is also inconvenient. For this reason, we propose a digital printing ink detection device.
