The demand for faster print speeds and higher quality labels has necessitated significant innovation from ink suppliers. The newest solutions must perform under a wide range of curing conditions to ensure quality. Plus, these inks must satisfy numerous applications. Therefore, converters are seeking consistent, high-quality products across\u00a0both LED and conventional UV curing systems.<\/p>\n
To learn more about the newest ink trends and Sun Chemical\u2019s innovation in this critical area,\u00a0L&NW\u00a0sat down with Derrick Hemmings, Product Manager, Screen, Energy Curable Flexo, LED North America, Sun Chemical.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, AxiomPrint added Cartes Gemini technology to overcome the limitations of outsourcing finishing, leading to higher costs, reduced quality control, and delays. These issues are hard to manage in a fast-paced market.\u00a0AxiomPrint<\/a>\u00a0chose\u00a0Cartes<\/a>\u00a0for speed, cost, and a favorable ROI. The investment was slightly higher up front, but the machine\u2019s efficiency delivers rapid payback. This is estimated at one year with constant use.\u00a0<\/p>\n In this setup, Gemini operates as a digital embellishment station downstream of the label printing lines, which adds high-value effects without increasing production complexity.<\/p>\n Here are the top viewed stories from the week ending on June 19, 2026:<\/p>\n Sun Chemical innovates to meet newest curing trends<\/a><\/p>\n AxiomPrint Uses Cartes Gemini to Succeed with Most Challenging Projects<\/a><\/p>\n Cyngient appoints Mitchell Bookbinder senior sales executive<\/a><\/p>\n
