This paper presents how to design and fabricate the gravure offset printing system for enhancement of register precision. Factors of precision error are caused by imprecision of gravure plate, deformation of substrate, printing quality change due to the change of ink viscosity, Imprecision of printing machine, and so on. This study suggests concept design of gravure offset printing system which is able to minimize or remove these error factors.

Drying characteristics are confirmed by experiment to a printing machine which use Gravure ink or metal ink for an optimum design of direct radiation drying system room using NIR. As a result, Drying is easily accomplished in short distance and low moving speed in Gravure ink, but drying is dropped in metal ink because of oil. This confirmed that the development of water metal ink had to be proceeded to accomplish a perfect drying condition.

Stability of high-speed roll-to-roll printing machines is one of the most important factors that are required for the printing machines to operate properly and to obtain reasonable printing performance. This paper proposes a new model for the web-tension system of a high-speed gravure printing machine considering span-length variations due to dancer rollers, and analyzes the stability of plant dynamics of the printing machine using the proposed model. Span-length variations due to dancer motions are considered for the modeling of plant dynamics in two ways; one is to include the effect of span-length variations without considering dancer inertias and viscous frictions, and the other is to include the effect of span-length variations with considering dancer inertias and viscous frictions. The stability of the plant model is analyzed for various web-speeds using the eigenvalues of the linearized model about operating points.

In gravure printing ink in printed flexible packaging considering the characteristics of the study more accurate color management options and results were as follows. When applying G7 calibration, P2P of the target GRACol G7 evaluate the delta $L^*$ and delta $F^*$, CMY and K-scale average of the results of delta $L^*$ and the highest tolerance G7 average of 1.5 and 3.0 are included in all the best. In addition, the average delta $F^*$ and super delta $F^*$, G7 tolerance by being included within the scope of color management, G7 calibration was possible. Target IT 8.7/4 CMYK, when applied to the calibration G7, Color gravure printing machine is applied to the average of the previous decreased from 12.4 to 3.6. In addition, if a digital proof is EPSON WT 7900 the average color applied to the previous reduction from 5.24 to 0.74 because of the gravure printing color proofing system was effective in the management. G7 calibration by applying the reference print profile of the Epson WT 7900-G-icc, the average was 0.74 coloration, and gravure-G-icc cases, the average color of the 3.60 per GRACol average of all the five colors below were included within the allowable range. Thus, the flexible packaging gravure printing color management of printed after applying the first G7 calibration, the results refer to the press by the profiling, and where best to take advantage of the profile creation was good.

We have investigated the effectiveness of a gravure printing method for the fabrication of organic light-emitting diode (OLED) and Organic Thin Film Transistor (OTFT). Printing of the organic layers was performed with a small-scale gravure coating machine, while the metallic layers were vacuum-evaporated. Devices with gravure-printed layers are at least comparable with the spin-coated devices. Effects of the solvent formulation and surface energy mismatch between the organic layer materials on the printed patterns and device performance were discussed. We will present the initial design and experimental data of OTFT fabricated by roll-type soft contact transfer process.

The computer simulation is presented of gravure ink transferring behavior and penetration to the paper when an gravure roller is used to transfer a printing ink onto a substrate. The three dimensional unsteady ink motion is simulated by Polyflow package software and experimented by IGT gravure printing test machine. The simulation is performed where the flow domain is bounded above by a stress free surface and bounded below by a moving substrate. Specific predictions are made for particular pattern of cells and substrates. Cell size and ink rheological properties are found to be the principal determination of transferring behavior. Simulation is currently restricted to the flow domain beneath the receding meniscus. Both Newtonian and shear thinning inks are considered.

An ink transfer is modeled and experimentally verified using roll-to-roll electric direct gravure printing process. The ink transfer model based on the physical mechanism for the maximum ink transfer rate is proposed, and experimented by the electric printing machine in FDRC for the relations of the maximum ink transfer rates to the printing pressure, the operating speed, the operating tension, the surface roughness of substrates, and the contact angle between substrate and silver ink. The free ink split coefficient and immobilized ink under the maximum ink transfer rate are calculated by the physical parameter in a printing process and contact angle between substrates and ink. Numerical simulations and experimental studies were carried out to verify performances of the proposed ink transfer model. Results showed that the proposed ink transfer model was effective for the prediction of the amount of transferred ink to the substrate in a direct gravure printing systems.

The shape of the register mark for the image processing becomes very important, because the printing quality is determined by the error correction between the register marks for the image processing. In this paper, printing marks are developed using the image process for the gravure printing method which is commonly being used in roll to roll, high resolution printing. The marks which can be cited to the flexible display print are developed The developed register marks which satisfies 10[${\mu}m$] error tolerance are tested under 70[mpm] printing conditions and confirmed through the experiments.
