Abstract

Viscosity is an important parameter in CCPRO tinting because it affects ink flow, dosing stability, and the risk of nozzle clogging. This study aimed to analyze the conformity of CCPRO ink viscosity measured using a Digital Viscometer and to evaluate the effect of viscosity changes on ink flow performance. A quantitative experimental method was applied through observation, literature study, and direct testing. Three colourant inks were examined: HD Orange (HO), Transparent Yellow Oxide (TY), and Yellow (YE). Each sample was measured three times and the average value was calculated. The results showed average viscosities of 1200 cP for HO, 1230 cP for TY, and 1250 cP for YE. HO and TY were classified as conforming to the applicable company requirements, while YE was classified as non-conforming and required corrective control before use. Higher viscosity increases flow resistance and may reduce the smoothness of ink delivery through the nozzle. The Digital Viscometer produced consistent repeated measurements and is suitable for routine viscosity monitoring in CCPRO tinting.
