At present, tinplate printing mainly uses the following four technologies: offset printing, gravure printing, flexographic printing and screen printing. Each technology has its unique characteristics and advantages and is suitable for different application scenarios.
Tinplate printing usually adopts processes such as offset printing, gravure printing and screen printing. Offset printing is widely used due to its high efficiency and high quality. The cost of monochrome offset printing is approximately between US$0.1 and US$0.3 per square meter.
Tinplate products cannot be heated in a microwave. Specifically: the metal surface of tinplate products will reflect microwaves, resulting in uneven distribution of microwaves in the microwave oven, which may cause local overheating or sparks.
If the tin plating layer of the tin plate is mechanically damaged, such as scratches, collisions, etc., the exposed iron substrate will come into contact with air and moisture, resulting in oxidation reactions and rusting.
