Introduction
GB/T 34690.2-2017 Standard Overview
This standard is the second part of "Printing Technology Offset Digital Process Control", which mainly regulates the working environment in offset printing production. The standard puts forward specific requirements from multiple aspects such as work clothes color, proofing conditions, digital hard proofing environment, computer direct plate making and printing, aiming to ensure the stability and consistency of printing quality.
Comparative Analysis of Standard Framework
| Standard Dimensions | Specific Requirements | Implementation Suggestions |
|---|---|---|
| Work Clothes Color | Neutral gray, Munsell lightness value N6~N8, chroma <0.3 | It is recommended to purchase gray work clothes that meet the standards and regularly check whether the employees' clothing meets the requirements. |
| Soft proofing environment | D50 standard light source, illumination 2000±500lux, color rendering index ≥90 | It is recommended to configure professional proofing equipment and calibrate the light source and measurement tools regularly. |
| Digital hard proofing conditions | Dust-proof and clean, neutral gray environment, temperature 23±3℃, humidity 50±10% | It is recommended to set up a special proofing room and install temperature and humidity monitoring equipment. |
Explanation of professional terms and practical applications
D50 standard light source: key equipment for color matching and quality control to ensure the consistency of proofing and printing results. For example, when comparing soft proofing with hard proofing, D50 light source must be used to avoid color deviation caused by light source differences.
Metamerism: refers to the phenomenon that colors with different spectral compositions look the same under specific conditions. The standard requires the metamerism index to reach C level or above, which helps reduce the risk of color deviation in printed products under different environments.
Technology Evolution Analysis
Compared with traditional offset printing technology, this standard introduces digital process control technology and emphasizes standardized management of the working environment. This evolution reflects the modern printing industry's demand for quality stability and efficiency improvement, especially in digital proofing and computer-to-plate (CDI) and other links.
Implementation Recommendations
- Hardware Facilities: Invest in equipment such as light sources, illuminance meters and color temperature meters that meet the standards to ensure measurement accuracy.
- Staff Training: Regularly train employees on standardized operations, especially work clothes color management and environmental reflectivity control.
- Process optimization: Establish a complete quality control system to ensure that every link from raw material storage to finished product output meets standard requirements.
