Automating the print process involves evaluating the tools on the finishing end. Manufacturers benefit from complementing digital printers with automated routers and cutters. To further streamline processes, it’s cost effective to take advantage of the software solutions available with these finishing devices...
Ink sets used in thermoforming applications are specifically created for this process. They must withstand extreme heat, offer high elasticity, in addition to other characteristics. Here we share some of the products designed for digital printing and thermoforming.
Manufacturers require durable labels in most aspects of their business, whether it be for goods they produce or an object in their own facility. Used in industrial settings and on heavy-duty consumer products, durable labels are exposed to chemicals, liquids, and extreme temperatures.
Digital printing, whether it is for décor, apparel, or signage, is an attractive solution for textiles. Dye-sublimation (dye-sub), digital dye-sub, transfer dye-sub, and direct digital printing are all methods for printing to fabrics.
