The batch of'color' non-woven fabrics used by'Kimberly' comes from the Xinzhongtian Group in Shaoxing County. In October 2009, Guangfeng Printing and Dyeing Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Xinzhongtian Group, cooperated with Xi’an Engineering University to introduce the scientific and technological achievements and patented technology of Xi’an Engineering University, and developed a flat screen printing machine field bus control system through technological cooperation and achievement transformation innovation. , Creating good conditions for the development and industrialization of new products of high-precision, high-quality dry-printing spunlace non-woven fabrics. During the implementation of this project, the two partners have formulated a plan to meet the high precision requirements of flat screen printing machine control for low precision control of the existing flat screen printing machine, slow printing unit speed, poor position coordination and control, and lack of fieldbus interface. The control software and design protocol conversion control circuit board of the company have completed the transformation of the field bus system of the flat screen printing machine, realized the localization of the printing unit, and improved the accuracy and quality of printing. The development and application of this technology has filled the domestic gap.　　The key to the printing effect of dry printing products is the transfer printing ink used. The ink is generally water-soluble, alcohol-soluble and solvent-based. Solvent-based inks are avoided due to serious pollution and high cost. According to the characteristics of spunlace non-woven fabric and ink composition, Guangfeng Printing and Dyeing Co., Ltd. has carried out a wide selection of ink composition materials, tried dozens of kinds of pastes and dyes used to prepare ink, and compared their dry printing methods The performance and effect, supplemented by the characterization of test equipment, finally developed a special ink for dry printing of spunlace non-woven fabrics.
