Web Press Wednesday - 4/19/2023The term "heatset" is a little misleading when you're talking about the heatset printing process. Yes, there is an oven that more-or-less bakes the paper as it spins through the web press, but what is the heat really doing? The function of the ovens on a heatset web press does not dry the ink as oil-based paints need to boil or evaporate to dry, which would be over the burning point of the paper it has been applied to and start a fire. The ovens actually evaporate the solvents in the ink before the paper is fed into a chilling unit which sets or hardens the ink. Pretty Interesting, RIGHT? Are you in need of printing a large run of quality printed magazines, catalogs, glossy circulars.?. Contact your rep at Forum Printing today!
