UFlex Chemicals Business secures India patent for new process to derive Epoxy Ester Resin
The Chemicals Business of UFlex Limited today announced securing of a patent (Patent No 354903)...
With top printing exhibition Drupa barely a month away, India’s largest global flexible packaging solution company Uflex is abuzz with action as it prepares to display some of the most innovative and contemporary packaging and converting machines; anti-counterfeiting, brand protection; rotogravure and flexo printing solutions.
A not to be missed exhibit by the flexible packaging major will be its Hybrid Technology Electromechanically Engraved Cylinders. Uflex manufactures precisely engraved printing cylinders through its new ‘Electromechanical Spectrum Engraving Line’.
In order to appreciate the new technology, it is imperative to first understand the conventional engraving process. Engraving the black process cylinder requires the use of a screen that prevents moiré with the other process colors. This screen doesn’t always provide the best results for line work and text, however.
Making double-cuts is common with black cylinders, with the line work cut at a screen for good detail reproduction and process for moiré prevention. This slows down the production.
The Hybrid Engraving System offers the best of both the worlds, traditional engraving for CT and high-resolution engraving for line work, in a single pass. This enhances quality without reducing productivity.
The salient features of Uflex rollers manufactured using hybrid technology are:
Drupa runs from 31 May until 10 June.
