The metal tin can packaging has hundreds of development history, and with its development, the industry is getting more and more advanced and all the production process are now more and more mature. But as the industry all knows, there is still no uniform inspection standard on tinplate printing, production, and the finished production packaging. And to international orders, most customers can only see the products according to samples before production and pictures which can’t exactly show the final massive production products printing, production, packaging and other processes.

With this point in mind and more than 20 years experience in metal tin can packaging, Tsing summarized our own Inspection Instruction on Tinplate Printing, Production Stamping, Finished production and Production Packaging according to customer’s requirements and our acknowledge to the tinplate printing.

Let’s firstly talk about the Inspection Instruction on Tinplate Printing before a metal tin can is produced. Tsing divides the inspection into 3 kinds, that are critical defect, major defect, and minor defect. And on the tinplate printing inspection, we divide it into the printing color and the printing ink two parts.

The printing color are usually tested by our experienced and professional technicist, and in Tsing’s Inspection Instruction,there should be 0 critical defect (CTR=0), the major defect should be less than 2.5%(MAJ≤2.5) and the minor defect should be less than 4.0%(MIN≤4.0).
