The process sequence for preparing an engraving cylinder is generally as follows:
• removing the used gravure cylinder from the gravure printing press;
• washing the gravure cylinder to remove residual ink;
• removing the chrome layer;
• removing the copper image-carrying layer, either chemically, by means of electroplating, or mechanically;
• preparing the copper plating process (degreasing and deoxidizing, applying the barrier layer if the
Ballard skin method was employed);
• electroplating;
• surface finishing with a high-speed rotary diamond milling head and/or with a burnishing stone or a
polishing band;
• etching or engraving (producing the image on the gravure cylinder);
• test printing (proof print);
• correcting the cylinder,minus or plus (i.e., reducing or increasing the volume of cells);
• preparing the chrome-plating process (degreasing and deoxidizing, preheating, and – if necessary – sometimes polishing);
• chrome-plating;
• surface-finishing with a fine burnishing stone or abrasive paper;
• storing the finished cylinder or installing it directly in the gravure printing press.
