Industry Observation|Digital printing activates new forces in corrugated packaging

Small cartons reflect the current development of the corrugated packaging industry. Compared with developed countries, although China's corrugated packaging industry started late, it has grown rapidly. In fact, the industrial production level of domestic corrugated cardboard is not low. With the rapid promotion of the Internet and logistics business, the express delivery business of e-commerce channels alone consumes tens of billions of cartons each year, and it is still increasing at an annual rate of 10 billion pieces.

In order to meet the rising demand for cartons, printing companies must greatly increase their production capacity, reform production methods through digital production and intelligent management to get rid of the inefficient mode of relying on intensive labor production, and introduce advanced printing equipment and operating systems to achieve high efficiency, Intensive and integrated full-process automated production.


FLORA SPC-1800 digital inkjet corrugated printing machine is the development of corrugated packaging printing technology with deep research and development experience and foundation after Runtianzhi has been deeply involved in the field of digital printing for many years. Taking full account of the current market demand for small batches, individualization, and short cycles, Runtianzhi provides printing companies with a corrugated packaging printing solution that balances cost and efficiency and has environmental benefits.

In high-speed mode, the line speed can reach 150 meters per minute

Short preparation time, no plate making, shortening the process

One-button automatic cleaning of the nozzle to ensure continuous production of the machine

Equipped with automatic feeding unit to reduce labor and increase productivity

Non-contact printing, no material damage






Traditional offset printing and laminating require two processing processes. Taking advantage of digital printing's close integration with the network, enterprises can realize intelligent integrated management mode through networked control, unify production standards, and simplify production processes. Meanwhile, the use of digital technology to achieve instant order acceptance and production with customers, reduce inventory, and quickly respond to the market is the goal pursued by packaging companies.


Seamless order change, print on demand, minimum order

The intelligent system is easy to operate, and online control saves time and effort

Online monitoring of material delivery, automatic alarm for paper jams, safe and secure

Post-processing supporting equipment can be networked

Real-time statistics of printing area, number of completed orders, ink consumption, convenient for customers to control operations and calculate costs






In the past, most of the corrugated paper packaging was used in simple transportation packaging, and the colors were basically 1-3 colors. However, with the development of the times and the widespread popularity of the Internet, about 30% of the corrugated paper types are used to print high-definition colorful graphics, and they are pasted onto cardboard. This fully highlights the market's demand for a wide color gamut for corrugated board printing.

Can be widely used in mechanical products, electronic appliances, food and beverages, gift toys, display stands, building materials packaging, etc.

Wide range of applicable materials, support coated cardboard, liner cardboard, yellow and white cardboard, etc.

Support large width cardboard processing (1900*2500mm)






It is different from the general use of large-scale production lines for large-scale output. Printing factories that are closer to the retail terminal mainly receive small and medium-sized orders, are more susceptible to market influence, and have a stronger demand for providing services such as product personalization, brand customization, and delivery time reduction.


Based on 20 years of successful experience accumulation, Runtianzhi designed a cost-effective digital printing solution for corrugated paper specifically for printing companies. Using non-plate printing and non-contact printing technology, it can achieve a printing speed of 50 meters per minute on materials up to 2.5 meters wide, reducing inventory and saving costs while printing on time and on demand, effectively helping customers improve their competitiveness, which is the best choice for medium-sized printing customers.

Using Single-pass technology, the maximum printing speed is 50m/min

Printing accuracy is 360dpi, support four-level grayscale printing

Standard four-color printing unit, accurate color, fine gradient

Two-line printing, support multi-image printing, printing on demand

One-key nozzle automatic moisturizing, ink circulation constant temperature control, to ensure continuous production of the machine

The whole machine is conveyed by belt, with strong suction, smooth paper feeding, and improved cardboard edge warping

Intelligent detection of paper stacking and curling to prevent scratches and automatically resume printing






In the current fast-changing market environment, challenges and opportunities coexist. How to integrate corporate resources and promote industrial upgrading is a big test for China's corrugated packaging industry. At the same time, higher standards of digital printing solutions are also required. In 2021, Runtianzhi will live up to its original aspirations, adhere to the concept of creating value for customers, with a sincere attitude, leading products, and efficient services, and win the future with our partners!
