How can I achieve a glossy effect on text while keeping the background with a matte finish using the KBA106- 6 print unit + 2 coater units machine?
To achieve a glossy effect on text while keeping the background with a matte finish using the KBA106-6 print unit + 2 coater units machine, you can follow these steps:
1. Design Preparation:
- Separate Layers: In your design software (e.g., Adobe Illustrator or Photoshop), separate the text and the background into different layers. This will allow you to apply different finishes to each element.
- Spot Colors: Assign a spot color to the text layer. This spot color will be used to apply the glossy varnish.
2. Printing Process:
- Print the Background: Use the first 6 print units to print the background with the desired matte finish. Ensure that the ink used for the background is compatible with the matte finish.
- Print the Text: Use one of the print units to apply the spot color to the text. This spot color will act as a mask for the glossy varnish.
3. Coating Process:
- Matte Coating: Use the first coater unit to apply a matte varnish over the entire sheet, including both the background and the text. This will give the background its matte finish.
- Glossy Coating: Use the second coater unit to apply a glossy varnish. However, since the spot color was applied to the text, the glossy varnish will only adhere to the text, creating the glossy effect.
4. Drying and Finishing:
- Drying: Ensure that the printed sheets are properly dried between each coating application to prevent smudging and to achieve the desired finish.
- Inspection: After the final coating, inspect the sheets to ensure that the glossy effect on the text and the matte finish on the background are achieved as intended.
5. Adjustments:
- Test Prints: Before running the full job, do a test print to check the alignment and the effect of the coatings. Adjust the machine settings if necessary.
- Registration: Ensure that the registration between the print units and coater units is precise to avoid any misalignment that could affect the final result.
6. Final Output:
- Quality Check: Once the job is complete, perform a final quality check to ensure that the glossy text and matte background meet the desired standards.
By following these steps, you can effectively achieve a glossy effect on the text while maintaining a matte finish on the background using the KBA106-6 print unit + 2 coater units machine.
