摘要

The gravure printing method is used in publishing and printing (high-art single and multicolor publications such as albums, mass illustrated magazines, advertising publications, artistic postcards, postage stamps, etc.), also in printing of securities, in particular money, packaging materials, labels, design of wallpapers, labeling of ampoule and cable products. Production of polymer forms for the intaglio printing is carried out using systems “computer-printing form” with the method of the infrared solid-state laser engraving (wave length is 1,064 microns). Since the form engraving is conducted with the help of a laser, in the image preparation program there is a possibility to set the parameters of the raster (the type and ruler of the raster, the step of the raster cell and the angle of rotation), as well as the parameters of the raster image cells (the depth of the cell, the angle of inclination of the side surfaces, the ratio of cells and membranes). The parameters of image rasterization in intaglio printing significantly affect the volume of cells and ink capacity of printing forms, which, accordingly, affects the reproduction-graphic, printing-technical characteristics of printing forms and prints. On the basis of the conducted experimental studies, there was developed an algorithm of the computer subsystem for modeling the influence of raster image parameters on the volume of cells and the ink capacity of polymer forms of gravure printing. The program written in the JavaScript language simulates the ink capacity of the gravure printing form, calculates the volume of the cells taking into account the raster ruler, the ratio of cells and the layers of the raster cell, and the depth of the cell. The developed modeling process allows to automate the design of gravure printing forms with predetermined characteristics that provide the necessary cell volume and ink capacity of the form, since in gravure printing the gradation characteristic of the printing process under stabilized printing conditions is a stable dependence of the optical density of the print from the parameters of the form printing elements, which are taken into account in the generalized parameter of the cell volume or the ink capacity of the form.
