HOW DOES THE PRINTING PROCESS WORKS??



Salam2 kepada teman2 semua, peehhhh lama gila dh aku x update blog. tgh time2 tengah sem mesti assignment melambak, test banyak nk mati n pressure final nk dekat. tula time2 awal sem enjoy sakan, now terima la penawar nye. bala smua ni, bala, bala...ahaha, okay so anyways aku nk berkongsi sikit perihal subjek which I think sgt interesting, PDT160 Basic OffsetLithography. Dalam kebanyakkan industri pencetakan kt mana2 kilang or whatsover kt Malaysia ni mostly gunakn method OffsetLithography. So okay korang mesti dh meraban merapu, basic offlithokewhhaat??! so dont worry aku akan terangkan briefly ape benda tu. Dalam printing process ade 4 pecahan/ jenis print process, which is Offset, Gravure, screen printing, and Letterpress/flexography.

Aku x mau peningkan pale otak korang dgn memende pelik ni so aku akan skip bende2 yg x patot.So dalam post ni aku terangkan bahagian OffsetLithography since aku baru blaja yg tu. in every pecahan2 yg aku dh listkan ade 3 basic workflow which is PREPRESS-PRESS-POSTPRESS. kerja2 PREPRESS melibatkan kerja2 sebelum pencetakan bermula dr scrap, finished design, to film and plate. Selalu nya design2 akan di buat melalui software adobe, Photoshop,inDesign, illustrator and etc.

Contoh design majalah yg dh siap disusun

Bila Design2 tu dh siap, contoh simple la..majalah, every muka surat akan disusun mengikut susunan. and bila dh disusun baru lah image di transfer ke film. Owh before aku teruskan (banyak betui details nye) dalam process plate making, there are two method which is CTF(Computer To Film) and CTP(Computer To Plate). CTF is somewhat I simplify as the oldschool way sbb leceh dimana image kena transfer ke film, dh tu kena stripping, and film tu pulak kne dedahkan cahaya ke plate where the images will be trasfered to the plate due to the strong source of light.

Film yg dh siap dicetak

tak sama pulak bg method CTP where the image is trasferred directly( terus menerus) ke atas plate. method ni baru sbb pencetak CTP baru wujud in these few recent years. tapi untuk subjek yg ni aku kena study the CTF way.

Markas Unit Percetakan UiTM =D

Okay so last week me and my fellow frens kena wat research untuk process Plate making the CTP and CTF as I metioned earlier. So step pertama skali bermula dengan design. untuk contoh mudah aku amek Notepad kecik, sebab untuk projek semester ni aku kena buat notepad. Aku wat simple design jer, malas nk rosak fikiran wat benda susah2.

Tadaahh..cantik x design aku? =D(wat pakai adobe Illustrator)

Oleh kerana aku fanatic game Monster Hunter aku wat design logo Jinouga. So step seterusnya ialah IMPOSITION. seperti aku dh terangkan kat atas susunan mengikut mukasurat(kalau ada) after susunan dh dibuat image tadi di transferkan ke film, OUTPUTTING.

Mesin Outpputing

So after dh cetak ke film, process seterusnya ialah Plate exposure dimana film yg dh dicetak tadi di lekat kn ke atas plate kosong dan di expose ke cahaya sinar UV terang. image yg berada di atas film td akan melekat ke plate kosong td.

Mesin Film Exposure

Bila dh di expose plate tu x leh di dedahkan dgn any other light source sbb plate tu sgt sensitive
takot2 rosak plate nyeh.

Contoh plate yg dh siap di transfer image dr film.(abaikan mamat x hensem tu)

So ape step seterusnya? that will have to wait for my next incoming installment of HOW DOES PRINTING PROCESS WORKS part 2. lol. bukan x mo bg tau, tp up until now kitorang baru sampai step ni so kalau nk citer n explain sampai habis process boleh jer tp takder bukti x best la kan. anyways sorry la kalau explaination aku sucks gila, sumpah aku tak pandai nk write tp aku tgh balaja la sikit2. So till the next post doods, komen la pape kalau de yg tak paham =D

  1. Hi ! Actually, saya berminat nak pursue Degree in Tech Printing ni. So saya ade soalan nak tanya.. Actually, Printing ni subjects ape yang korang belajar? Ade apa-apa yang penting tak patut tahu tentang subject ni? (Saya bukan budak Art&Design)
