20080250953 | Portable intaglio printing press - The present invention is directed to a novel intaglio printing press and a method for intaglio print making using the intaglio printing press described herein. The present invention is comprised generally of two assemblies: a press bed assembly and a print head assembly. The print head assembly serves as a first class lever within a pair of surfaces of a press bed assembly that define runway. The runway structure of the press bed assembly confines the force applied to the print head assembly and translates that force into a pressure directed to the print paper covered and inked artwork. The print paper and inked artwork are positioned proximate to the lower surface and the print head portion of the print head assembly is situated between the artwork and the upper surface. The print head assembly comprises one or more lever handles, a compression roller and one or more track roller. The lever handle(s) provide a torque lever for receiving a manually exerted downward force and to provide a handle for moving the print head assembly along the runway, thereby making compression passes across the artwork. The track roller and compression roller are secured a predetermined distance from each other and within a housing that forces the compression roller against the print paper and inked artwork at the lower surface of the runway and simultaneously forces the track roller (or bearings) against the upper surface of the runway. Printmaking proceeds one pass at a time across the lateral extent of the print paper covered artwork. | 10-16-2008 |
20100089262 | METHOD OF PRINTING FINE PATTERNS BY INTAGLIO PRINTING AND PRINTING SYSTEM FOR PRINTING FINE PATTERNS BY INTAGLIO PRINTING - A method of printing fine patterns prints a fine pattern on a substrate using an elastic mold with an intaglio pattern. This method includes applying a fine pattern printing ink to a surface of a patterned elastic mold; removing the ink applied to an embossed portion of the elastic mold by closely adhering an ink removing unit having a polymer resin or an organic compound with a surface energy from | 04-15-2010 |
20110023736 | METHOD OF FORMING INK PATTERNS AND APPARATUS FOR PRINTING INK PATTERNS - A method of forming ink patterns and an apparatus for printing ink patterns capable of reducing the amount of wasted ink and enhancing the printing and positional precision of the shape of ink patterns on a member to be printed, are described herein. The method includes providing a first printing member including first concave portions formed by engraving patterns larger than final ink patterns, that are to be printed on a member, on the first printing member; filling the first concave portions of the first printing member with ink; transferring the ink filling the first concave portions of the first printing member onto a blanket cylinder to form intermediate ink patterns; providing a second printing member including second concave portions formed by engraving patterns equal in size to the final ink patterns that are to be printed on the member, on the second printing member; closely attaching the blanket cylinder having the intermediate patterns to the second printing member to remove ink on portions of the blanket cylinder that contact convex portions of the second printing member, from the blanket cylinder; and printing ink that remains on the blanket cylinder, on the member to form the final ink patterns. | 02-03-2011 |
20110107927 | Gravure Printing Method - A gravure printing method is provided that includes: patterning a substrate to form a printing substrate having a recess portion and a convex portion; forming a first self-assembled monolayer on the surface of the recess portion; forming a second self-assembled monolayer on the surface of the convex portion; filling ink into the recess portion; and transferring the ink filled in the recess portion to a printing object substrate, wherein the first and second self-assembled monolayers respectively formed on the surfaces of the recess portion and the convex portion have different surface energies. | 05-12-2011 |
20110290130 | Lightweight portable intaglio printing press - A lightweight portable intaglio press comprises three assemblies: a print table assembly, a side rail assembly and print head assembly. A work piece is positioned on the upper surface of print table assembly (the platen) and between left and right side mounting rail of the side rail assembly. The print head assembly comprises a frame, a print roller rotationally affixed to the frame, a pair of side rail rollers rotationally affixed on either side of the frame and substantially above and behind the print roller on the frame and a pair of handle levers securely affixed to the frame forward of the print roller. An increase in downward force on the work piece at the print roller is realized and related to the ratio of distance between the pair of side rail rollers and the print roller, to the distance between the print roller and the point on the pair of handle levers where downward force is applied. In operation, an operator exerts a downward force on the handles and moves the print head assembly forward and then backward between the left and right side mounting rail and over the work piece. | 12-01-2011 |
20110297022 | DEVICES AND METHODS FOR INTAGLIO PRINTMAKING ON CANVAS - Devices and methods for intaglio printmaking on canvas are described herein. The devices and methods provide advantages that include permanent intaglio printmaking on canvas. | 12-08-2011 |
20140020580 | PRINTING METHOD AND PRINTING APPARATUS - A printing method includes: placing an elastic member on a first stage having an opening section, and providing ink between the elastic member and an opposing member; and causing contact between the elastic member and the opposing member with the ink interposed therebetween, by moving one or more pressurizing sections along the opening section. | 01-23-2014 |
