Trip from UFT

Posted on by

Couple of weeks ago, we went to UFT print shop to get a chance to see how different kind of printers work and what are they using for.

The first printer that we saw is called digital printing. It is the process of transferring a document from a computer or a digital device to a printing machine. They used it for printing big posters with a large format or high volume laser. Also, a digital printer re-draws the page image for each print rather than relying on a press plate to carry the image, a digital print requires no setup sheets and each sheet can contain a different image.

The second printer is called Rotogravure. During the gravure printing process the printing cylinder rotates in the ink pan where the printed cells fill with ink. When the cylinder rotates clear of the ink pan, rest of the ink is removed.The cylinder is brought into contact which is pressed against it by the rubber covered impression roller.

Offset printing is a process of printing in which the inked images are transferred from rubber blankets or rollers to a  printing surface. They used it to print business cards, letterhead, catalogs, books/booklets, business forms, flyers, brochures, calendars, also invitations.

Welcome!

Hi everyone, my name is Yasemin.

It’s my second year in Citytech. I used to be in architecture but I saw that it wouldn’t work for me.The reason that I chose Advertising Design is, improving my creativity on drawing and expressing my ideas in visually. Drawing is my passion since i was 11. Learning new methods , being successful inspires me and it doesn’t make me to lose my hope. The drawings, designs on anywhere that i see from people, who are known with their work also inspires me. In my opinion, listening music opens my imagination and its making more ideas in my mind. I like to work with coding, markers, pencils and if necessary sometimes on computer. I had experiences working with softwares, which are Indesign, Illustrator and Photoshop. I would like to work on Projects which are based on space and volume because you can add more details and you can work in many ways however you think about it.
