Through hard effort and fierce determination KMi has become
expert in the manufacturing technology of highly efficient automatic
line production of quality printing inks. Skilled chemical engineers
and technicians synthesize resins in three high temperature
reactors.
These discharge into varnish kettles allowing resin transfer
in the molten state. The varnish is filtered into storage tanks,
which feed mill-base weigh stations, the mill-base then dropping
into large pre-wetting holding tanks. These tanks feed eight
colour dedicated automatic production lines. We utilize then
advanced Buhler K240 or K120 shot mills, then one floor down,
run over the Buhler Sapphire, SDV 1300 or Inoue three roll mills,
which in turn are linked to the ink let-down tank farm, finally
linking to the filter and weigh-out stations or through the
polishing/vacuum packing line for sheetfed products.
In short, the plant is designed for manufacturing efficiencies,
minimal material handling, with state of the art ink mills.
On the ground floor there is a complete traditional ink factory,
for other color production, of the mix-three roll mill-remix
type, or production via flushing.
There are many pigment manufacturers, both multinational and
regional, in Korea. Because of the competition the standard
of product is excellent and at the same time cost-competitive.
Such a wide range of excellent pigments and press cake has allowed
KMi to focus its technology on resin and varnish, these technologies
being the crucial determinants for most of the printing characteristics
of an ink.
There are many parameters that should be controlled for the
manufacture of quality printing inks. For optimum ink properties
we utilize the sophisticated Buhler shot and three roll mills
in line to produce higher gloss, transparency and narrow particle
size distribution. Skilled technicians with extensive knowledge
and experience maintain constant production quality to satisfy
our own high standards and our customers' demands. |
