Indovation – We need to up our game

LAYOUT DESIGNER

Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak aka Woz has said that Indians can’t be creative as their education system was based around studiousness which doesn’t encourage creativity. Undoubtedly, it created more furore than dignified debates with supporters from both schools of thoughts vying for a win on social media. Steve’s statements must be taken with a pinch of salt – it’s more stereotyping than an assumption. Lest he forgot that Indians are leading several key innovative companies – few are his competition. Thus, we thought that this issue merits we highlight at least one such innovation that perhaps even the so called innovative nations would need some day. The extent of the air pollution and the health hazards faced by the citizen is conspicuous from the media stories. There are few global startups which are working to help improve the situation but those who follow the Forbes issues and the TED Talks closely, it would be unlikely that they would have missed Chakr Innovation. In addition to this, we have a good mix of technology and business articles that will keep you busy and engaged. Andraya Vantrease in her piece questions why don’t decorators use the newest technologies? Laurel Brunner decodes the price of eco printing, and we also discuss five major technology advances in UV curing you should know. In the technology section we have articles on Rapid Liquid Printing (RLP) and graphene printing technology. The month of April will usher in the Hindu New Year in different parts of the country. We wish you all a great and Indovative one this year!

Finnish firm Huhtamaki to acquire Ajanta Packaging for $15.5 mn The Indian unit of Finnish packaging company Huhtamaki will acquire Ajanta Packaging (India) for Rs 100.3 crore ($15.5 million) in an all-cash deal. The entire business of Ajanta Packaging is acquired as a going concern on a slump sale basis, Huhtamaki PPL Ltd, the local division of the Finnish firm, said in a stock-exchange disclosure. The acquisition will help Huhtamaki in consolidating its position in pressure sensitive label business, it said. Ajanta Packaging, promoted

by Sudhir and Chandan Khanna, manufactures pressure sensitive labels, baggage tags and security labels. Ajanta Packaging has its head office in Mumbai, and started its unit in the year 2000 in the Union Territory of Daman. It started its operations by way of introducing waterless offset, and till date one of the few printers in India to print labels using this technology. The year 2007 saw the commencement of Ajanta Packaging’s second unit at Baddi with the installation of one waterless offset machine. Subsequently two highly configured, 10 stations, flexo machines have been added. The special feature of this machine, is that it prints flexo and screen simultaneously with facilities for hot and cold foil, in a single pass. In 2008, Ajanta Packaging started the third unit at Sharjah.

Its revenues stood at Rs 81.1 crore in the year through 31 March 2017. Huhtamaki PPL, formerly known as The Paper Products Ltd, provides packaging solutions for labels, tube laminate webs, thermoformable laminates and promotional materials. The company has 15 manufacturing facilities in the country. Its clients include Britannia, Coca Cola, Ferrero, Glaxo Smithkline, Marico, Mondelez, Nestle, Pepsico, Procter & Gamble and Unilever. Huhtamaki’s income stood at Rs 564.94 crore and net profit was Rs 20.94 crore in the OctoberDecember quarter. In 2015, Huhtamaki acquired Mumbai-based Positive Packaging Industries Ltd for Rs 818 crore ($136.6 million). In 2012, it bought a 51% stake in Webtech Labels Pvt. Ltd, which manufactures labels for the pharmaceuticals sector, for Rs 37.7 crore ($ 6.94 million).

applications where total cost per square foot is key,” said Ken Hanulec, vice president of marketing, EFI Inkjet. “These two new printers run more than 50% faster, and a speed boost like this gives our customers an important new opportunity to increase their margins.” EFI’s new VUTEk HS presses for Fast Graphics out-of-home production will be available this quarter from EFI. Also beginning this quarter, customers who purchase VUTEk HS125 Pro and HS100 Pro presses can convert them to the new F4 models through a modification completed in the field.

Muller Martini buys Kolbus bookbinding Swiss manufacturing giant Muller Martini has acquired the binding and bookline business of Germany-based Kolbus. In a deal announced in January, Müller Martini is taking over the perfect binding and book line business from Kolbus, which will now focus on packaging and casemaking, parts manufacture and its foundry operations. Reflecting on the decline in long-run book manufacturing, Muller Martini CEO Bruno Müller commented: “Structural change has changed the graphic arts industry in recent years and our market has become much smaller and versatile at once.

Customers need innovations on a regular basis, which have to be financed with lower sales quantities. Above all, our customers benefit from the efficiency gains bringing together the bookbinding activities.” “Combining the personnel, expertise, technology and infrastructure of the two companies secures the future of the softcover and hardcover business of both the customers and the two machine manufacturers - and thus also jobs in the graphc arts industry,” added Müller. “The market changes are directly affecting our customers, who are faced with new business models like digitization. Muller Martini can provide the market with innovative solutions in the long term,” he added. Kolbus’ bookbinding business is to be transferred to a new business unit, Müller Martini Buchbinde-Systeme, in a separate

factory in Rahden in Germany. This will take on the service and spares operation for all Kolbus bookbinding systems installed worldwide. Some 250 Kolbus employees will transfer with the business, while the remainder will focus on packaging and casemaking opportunities. Kolbus CEO Kai Büntermayer commented: “In recent years, the packaging market was growing consistently. We see a good potential and will vigorously expand our current activities in this business. There are also very good perspectives in the segment of component manufacturing for sophisticated mechanical engineering companies including Müller Martini Buchbinde-Systeme and Kolbus Luxury Packaging.” Müller Martini was founded in 1946 and currently operates with 1800 employees in development and production of industrial system solutions for print finishing. Kolbus was established in 1775.

Agfa Graphics introduces Anapurna H1650i LED printer Agfa Graphics is expanding its wide-format hybrid Anapurna LED series for sign and display professionals with a new 1.65 m-wide hybrid printer – the Anapurna H1650i LED. This smaller hybrid printer was designed as an accessible and cost-effective production tool that combines the latest LED technology with Agfa Graphics’ signature high-quality output. The Anapurna H1650i LED was revealed to the public at C!Print Lyon

(France), which took place from 6 to 8 February 2018. The latest addition to the Anapurna LED series – the Anapurna H1650i LED – is a smaller version of the popular and robust Anapurna H2050i LED printer, with which it shares several features and benefits. Like its bigger brother, the new Anapurna prints on rigid and flexible media by means of LED curing, resulting in a lower cost of ownership. It combines this with Agfa’s award-winning imaging quality, ink-saving thin ink layer technology and perfect white ink printing reliability, yet requires a smaller financial investment than

other Anapurna engines. “The hybrid Anapurna H1650i LED printer was designed as a robust, qualitative and versatile entry-level option for wideformat print service providers,” explains Philip Van der Auwera, Product Manager at Agfa Graphics. “Although smaller, it is equipped with features normally reserved for higher-end printers, such as automatic head height measurement, crash prevention and an anti-static bar, thus offering the very best at a reasonable price. Of course, the Anapurna H1650i LED is driven by Asanti as well, which adds to the resulting high-quality and consistent prints.”

Norfoam enters new markets with SAi Software Solutions

SAi DisplayGenie complements EnRoute in development and production of new applications at Norwegian packaging company Norfoam AS of Støren (Norway) is a small, specialty company that offers tailor-made packaging solutions to protect sensitive equipment during transportation, operational use and storage. A long-time user of SAi EnRoute CNC-routing software, Norfoam has been using SAi DisplayGenie for carton and POP/ POS design and production for the past year. Roar Øien, Norfoam’s founder and CEO, has extensive experience in specialist packaging, having established two companies in the sector: Capro AS (est. 1989), and Norfoam (est. 2013), with his business partner, Jon Olav Rosøy.

| SCREENTEX | February - March 2018

“Capro makes large carriers and flight cases for single and multiple items requiring a high level of protection,” Øien said. “It was while working there that in 2002, I first began using EnRoute software in the production of cut foam inserts.” Typical items for this packaging included industrial parts, sensitive instruments, medical and optical equipment, and musical instruments. The last played an important part in Capro and Norfoam, as both Øien and Rosøy are musicians, and it was because they used to make shipping cases for their instruments and equipment that they recognized the opportunity to start a business. Seeing a market for smaller, less expensive packaging than Capro was producing, Øien

and Rosøy established Norfoam, initially to serve the same industries. “We work for any company that needs its product to be protected,” Øien said. “This can be one-off jobs, or regular work for longer term customers. Norfoam’s products are not only smaller, but lighter; in a sense, we are complementing the work of Capro.” Norfoam still works with Capro; making packaging for individual items, or sets that can be placed inside Capro’s larger containers. Another important source of business for the company is sample-making and, depending on the requirement, it can either produce the final products, or provide the files for high-volume production. EnRoute is one of the

ADVERTORIAL software tools that Øien also uses at Norfoam, and it was when installing a new MultiCam Apex router from Alvøen AS, in Bergen, that he was told about SAi’s new Flexi-powered DisplayGenie software. The installation of DisplayGenie for carton and POP/ POS design and production not only facilitates Norfoam’s carton work, but also adds new product possibilities and revenue streams. “DisplayGenie integrates smoothly with our EnRoute software,” he said. “We use EnRoute to create CNC files for the MultiCam, for both cutting foam and the corrugated products. The library of ECMA and FEFCO1 templates for POP/POS displays, cartons and other products is very good. We can use them as is, or easily modify the designs. We then import them into EnRoute to generate the cut files for the router. “Where we have seen an opportunity is in the low-volume carton and display markets,” Øien said. “Larger carton producers are not interested in short run lengths, and can’t afford to do them. On the other hand, we handle corrugated sheets up to 2 x 3m and can make 1, 10 or 800 products, affordably and profitably. In fact, we are probably competitive up to about 3,000 pieces – and that gives us a market!” Norfoam’s market is one that has traditionally been forced, like Øien and Rosøy themselves, to come up with their own solutions for their packaging needs because professionally produced packaging was either unavailable or unaffordable. Working with Norfoam, customers receive products of equal quality to large manufacturers, with the added bonus of personal service at every stage.

“DisplayGenie can create 3D artwork in a PDF file so it can be rotated and seen from all angles. It is easy to send to customers for approval,” he said. “With DisplayGenie, we can position the customers’ artwork in the file, and it’s ready for printing.” Norfoam does not print – yet – but sends the completed files out for printing. “Depending on the job, sometimes the cutting is done by the printer; other times, it comes back to us from the printer for finishing,” he said. All design items can be handled by DisplayGenie, including artwork, logos, bar codes, QR codes, patterns, and variable data text, giving companies like Norfoam the ability to handle a wide variety of jobs. In addition, work may come to Norfoam from a variety of sources, including designers, brands and retailers as PDF, AI, EPS, JPG, TIF, PNG files and be imported into DisplayGenie. Finished files can be quickly exported as PDF and DXF files for rapid proofing, and to flatbed cutters, or wide-format RIP software. “We are still relatively new at POP/ POS display work, but use DisplayGenie for carton design, which now represents about 40

percent of our business,” Øien said. “The other 60 percent is our work in foam inserts.” Today’s user-friendly software, like SAi EnRoute and DisplayGenie, along with 3D PDF programs operating with digitally-driven and highly accurate routers, and cutting, creasing and scoring tools, provide great flexibility to small companies like Norfoam. They enable them to offer high-quality, high-impact packaging and displays in short runs to a wide variety of vertical markets. “There is no doubt that DisplayGenie has made carton and display design easier,” he concluded. “It has opened new possibilities for us, and we have found SAi very helpful, professional, and responsive to work with. As a result, we can see our work with displays growing in the near future.”

Five major technology advances in UV curing you should know

According to The Future of Radiation Curing Print Markets to 2022, print produced using radiation curing (UV and electron beam) inks and varnishes in 2017 totalled roughly 1.38 trillion A4 prints, a value of $63.4 billion. The market is growing at around 2-3% annually in tonnage terms. With ink revenues growing faster than the overall graphics and packaging market, users are taking advantage of instant drying to improve their production efficiencies and exploit both decorative and functional properties of the inks and coatings. Radiation curing not only saves time by instant drying but it also enables various efficiencies across a wider production process. While print volumes in graphics generally is falling by

| SCREENTEX | February - March 2018

3.0% per year between 2012 and 2022, the radiation curing print segments of this, and the still booming packaging market, are poised to expand market share. Radiation curing volume will grow by 25.0% by volume and 33.6% in value terms across this period. Smithers Pira identifies the key developments in ink and varnish formulation and curing technologies that are underpinning this expansion. Low-energy UV Curing UV curing methods are changing. The majority of ultraviolet drying in 2017 is still carried out using mercury vapour quartz lamps, but these take time to warm up and there are potential health and environmental hazards at end-

of-life. These limitations are amplifying the benefits of lowenergy curing. This curing system is designed to dry the print using much less energy than the traditional mercury vapour lamps, with a single mercury doped lamp. The system uses special inks that command a premium over the traditional UV curing inks and varnishes. These lamps do not emit the shorter UV wavelengths that generate ozone, removing the need for ozone extraction. They produce less waste heat, so require less cooling, which further reduces the power consumption. The technology is now being taken up in North America and Europe. Low-energy curing can be used on perfecting presses

GUEST COLUMN with two lamps to dry each side, and Komori has commercial web presses using H-UV technology instead of a hot air oven, thus reducing the press footprint â&#x20AC;&#x201C; which is important in its home market of Japan, where the very high cost real estate make space saving potentially a significant cost advantage. UV LED Curing UV LED curing uses lightemitting diodes that emit a narrow band of UV, delivering a peak of UV energy, which provide a broad distribution of output across the spectrum, including visible and infrared. LED curing offers even less energy than the low-energy mercury bulb UV systems, and there is an instant on-off, which can reduce further the downtime required in waiting for the lamps to come to full power, as well as providing significant energy savings through synchronisation of cure with ink laydown. The drawback is limited availability of suitable inks, and the high cost premium currently associated with them. The range of UV LEDs commercially available is growing, shadowing LEDs wider use in general lighting installations. Printers that are already using UV LED are reporting energy consumption as much as 70% lower than conventional UV systems. Another attraction of UV LED systems is their colour brilliance, stemming from higher pigment content. UV LED is moving beyond niche applications into highervolume segments in some European countries, such as sheetfed printing, where the technology has the advantage of being able to provide high colour

strength. Electron beam curing Electron beam curing uses a high-powered electron beam to initiate the free radical polymerisation reaction. A curtain of accelerated electrons is emitted towards the printed surface, in an evacuated chamber. The energetic electrons pass through a titanium window foil towards the wet ink, the energy is absorbed by the ink layer and the curing process takes place. The benefit of the technology is the penetration of electrons into the body of the inkfilm, rather than just at the surface, ensuring good throughcuring. It is widely used in the Americas on wide web presses, but less so in Europe. There are developments to broaden its use through lowercost and smaller EB curing units, including for the first sheetfed processes, and ink technology to broaden the use on flexo and gravure presses. The proportion of electron beam in radiation curing remains low (at just 4â&#x20AC;&#x201C;5% in 2017) with most in North America and lower elsewhere. Low migration inks and coating As radiation curing is widely used in food, pharmaceutical and tobacco packaging, it is important that no component can migrate from the print into the product and cause any organoleptic effects. This is particularly important in tobacco packaging, where the criteria for odour-free and migration-proof packaging are driven by the fact that tobacco is hygroscopic. Odour and taint are potential issues for all

converters. Ink manufacturers are formulating low-migration inks using selected components, which should ensure that migration from the resultant printing ink film will be within accepted migration limits. Ink formulators may choose components from the known range of approved ingredients, or choose the new classes of materials becoming available that offer inherently lower potential contamination. This issue is now being approached via new legislation announced in 2017 in the EU, and other markets like Japan. Hybrid inks Several ink manufacturers are exploring new methods of formulating inks to broaden the range of applications for UV and electron beam inks and to improve their performance on press. In flexible packaging on common impression flexo presses there is limited space for interdeck drying, and ink manufacturers are developing UV and EB curing inks with water or solvents. These act as diluents, and there is a degree of evaporation at the print stage that enables improved wet-on-wet trapping. There are developments in water-based electron beam gravure printing, for example IdeOn at Amgraph Packaging in Connecticut uses water as a diluent for electron beam-curable gravure inks. A significant advantage of these hybrid inks is that they are not classified as hazardous materials, which traditional 100% solid UV inks and coatings are. This means manufacturers do not have to apply a hazardous chemical label onto the pack, and they can be transported in bulk â&#x20AC;&#x201C; whereas a UV ink categorised as hazardous cannot be transported in a container larger than 25 litres.

The price of eco printing By Laurel Brunner

Sustainability consultant Laurel Brunner says that publishers have the power to determine how green the printing industry can be. Publishers often know what they want to publish, although they may not know how they want it printed. It’s a step too far to care about the production of a book or magazine, when you’re worried about getting the content and sales projections right. This is not surprising: production and printing are usually someone else’s outsourced problem. Over 30 years ago technology made it easier for content creators to get their content published. The introduction of desktop publishing (DtP) revolutionised the graphics industry which lead to extensive disruption and increased awareness of print’s numerous dirty secrets. The DtP revolution transpired due to technology, but also since prepress and printing industries were eager for change. Change has continued to mould the graphics industry, small publishers such as Unbound chooses the content to publish using a crowd funding model. As a result, they are gaining prominence in today’s printing and publishing industry.

| SCREENTEX | February - March 2018

The first Apple Macintosh made famous by Steve Jobs started the DtP revolution. We have had first-hand experience with the early Mac models. We have experienced the Xerox Star so the Windows, Ikons, Mouse and Pointing techniques used in the Mac’s graphical user interface were familiar. We have fiddled with high end page layout and composition tools, the delights of Aldus PageMaker (the first desktop page layout software) were also comparatively familiar. Except that this little box was a machine with a price a fraction of what professional systems cost. Adobe’s PostScript page description language unified text and graphics into a single output stream, processing rasters to screen and printer. Thanks to the incorporated Linotype fonts, beautiful typeset pages could be output. Apple LaserWriter was the first desktop printer to print true font at 300 dpi allowing viewed pages to be printed. Linotype’s Linotronic 300 was the first typesetter to accept PostScript input for 2400 dpi output which was sufficient for both film and platemaking. It was the beginning

of the end for conventional prepress and publishing. DtP technologies created awareness and encouraged everyone to use typography and composition in their communications. They laid the foundation for greater awareness of printing and the negatives associated with volume production and waste. Today the conversation between publishers and printers need to evolve and move on. Publishers now have the power to determine how green the printing industry can be. As with any service industry printers mostly depend on their customers for their direction. For example, publishers can dictate that they want printing to occur close to distribution points. They can require printers to use technology that use reduced energy, water and materials during the print cycle. Publishers can specify the use of recycled paper and vegetable based inks, and choose to commission companies with zero waste to landfill policies. Sustainable print is in control of publishers regardless of size. If they are willing to accept that such an approach will come at a price, it is a price worth paying.

Why Don’t Decorators Use The Newest Technologies? By Andraya Vantrease

Last year, online fashion accounted for nearly 20% of retail e-commerce sales in the United States – a total of more than $458 billion. This massive sum of business is changing expectations for apparel customers, who thirst for on-demand personalized garments that can be manufactured in small quantities and delivered at incredible speeds. “Online shopping has turned the idea of supply and demand on its head,” says Omer Kulka, VP of marketing and product strategy for Kornit, which manufactures digital inkjet printers for the apparel decoration industry. “Instead of selling what we’ve already manufactured, we’re being asked to manufacture what we’ve

| SCREENTEX | February - March 2018

already sold.” The truth is this emerging model can be difficult to capture with screen printing and other manual decoration methods. By contrast, digital techniques such as direct-to-garment printing (DTG) and sublimation are perfect for it; they deliver quick, customized designs with onepiece minimums, conveniently leaving room for constantly changing apparel trends. DTG and dye-sublimation aren’t that new; their primitive origins date back decades, and their current commercial forms are old enough to have been Bar Mitzvahed. But the belief is these

techniques are on the rise. In fact, the digital decoration techniques were ranked first and second in the Wearables State of the Industry survey when decorators were asked which techniques would exhibit the most growth in the next five years. That’s a look into the future; the current reality is a different story. Only a third of decorators offer sublimation, while a quarter offer DTG – both figures declining from 2016. (Embroidery, heat transfers and screen printing rate much higher.) Only 13% of decorators plan to add either of these techniques this year. Buyer recognition of these digital techniques also lags significantly

GUEST COLUMN behind other methods. Equipment manufacturers continue to refine these technologies, aggressively seeking ways to make them faster, userfriendly, durable and cost-effective. Still, manufacturers and decorators agree that several challenging factors remain: the up-front investment and everyday cost of printing, a steep learning curve with new technology, production bottlenecks and the necessity of bringing in steady business to maintain the machines. And yet, with all that said, digital decoration techniques have proved they have a purpose and place in apparel shops. “The online revolution is a major force that’s pushing everyone into a space where we have the technology to make decorators more profitable – if they’re willing to make the leap,” Kulka says. The question for decorators: Is now that time? Investing in the latest technology is a challenge – the excitement of new capabilities is tempered by the cost of investment and the time it takes to integrate and streamline processes. It can be difficult to step back far enough to make it all work. But when it comes to digital decoration, thriving shops have successfully made them work. Rob Dubow, owner of Dubow Textil, runs eight Kornit DTG printers in addition to five automatic screen-printing machines and 230 heads of embroidery. Digital techniques account for 25% of the company’s gross revenue, which has grown considerably since Dubow entered the B2C market a few years ago. “The demand for full-color prints with no minimums is what drives the digital business,” Dubow says. “Ad specialties are selling to

businesses, and those businesses are looking to purchase similarly to the B2C market.” Rowboat Creative (asi/83710) added DTG and dye-sublimation capabilities almost six years ago. “We’ve always been on the forefront of industry technologies to help push our capabilities ahead,” says Lucas Guariglia, president and director of sales. DTG allowed the Chicago-based company to print on-demand, but clients loved the ability to see a production sample without higher setup fees before committing to a full screen-printing run. (Guariglia tells clients the results aren’t “apples to apples,” but clients appreciate seeing something tangible.) Meanwhile, the company uses dye-sub in its cutand-sew program for patterned panels and all-over sublimation. “Sublimation is an amazing decoration process,” Guariglia says. “You just need to really understand the medium to start to push its limits.” Scalable Press (asi/87178), one of the largest digital print companies in the industry, runs its DTG printers 24 hours per day, five days per week in four production facilities across the country. The company employs over 300 people and runs three shifts per day to keep up with the order volume. “It’s a huge

competitive advantage for us to have so much volume going through these machines,” says Doug Sill, VP of sales. “You have to know who to target and how to get the business required for the machines to be worth the expense.” Like any decoration solution, there’s an initial cost to get started. Entry-level DTG printers can start at a few thousand dollars and range up to high-end commercial behemoths with a $200,000 sticker. Sublimation printers are more affordable – Sawgrass Ink offers a smaller printer up to 8.5” x 14” for around $600 for a full set of ink, while its larger model (11” x 17” without a bypass tray and 13” x 19” with) costs $1,700. Both techniques require a heat press as well, to either cure the ink for DTG (a conveyor dryer for screen printing also works) or to transfer the inks into the garment for sublimation. But as with any technology, the investment can be offset by the business it unlocks. And that’s where the difficulty ramps up. With DTG, “I don’t think the challenge is as much an up-front financial burden as it is an efficiency burden,” Sill says. “Decorators get into it because they’re excited about one-off orders, but the only way this really works is if your machines are running all the time. If not, it becomes a major money pit.” There’s a simple reason for that: “DTG printers historically do

February - March 2018 SCREENTEX |

GUEST COLUMN not work well when they sit in the corner and are used occasionally,” says Deana Leelachat, trade show and marketing manager at Anajet (asi/16000). “They need to have ink flowing through daily or print heads dry out and nozzles break. Many decorators don’t have enough sales to run it every day, then when they do have a big order, they realize it doesn’t work properly and that interrupts productivity.” Improving durability to withstand longer periods between orders has become a priority. In response, Anajet recently launched the R100, an affordable, portable printer that can quickly heat up after sitting on the shelf for weeks. “This product is intended to help businesses get into DTG sooner,” Leelachat says, “because it’s significantly less expensive, it’s portable to bring to their trade shows and events when they’re out educating customers on this method of printing, and it’s not as fragile with maintenance as some of the larger machines.” Other barriers remain. Pretreatment and printing are both time-intensive activities. Ink usage and the associated cost have also been a concern – fine for lowminimum orders, but difficult to compete with screen printing for larger runs. Kornit squarely focused on that with its announcement in January of the Avalanche HDG. The company says it will reduce ink consumption by as much as 46%, depending on which previous model Kornit users have. Kulka says, “the target before was never screen printers,” attributing the difficulty of shifting to a digital format. “Now,” he says, “we can offer them something that tackles a lot of the issues digital printing traditionally has. It could revolutionize the way they work and give them an edge that wasn’t there before.”

| SCREENTEX | February - March 2018

Compared to DTG, sublimation may have less technological setbacks, but it’s not without its challenges, including the efficiency of the technique. “While there are machines that can sublimate directly to roll fabric, most facilities simply know the process of printing the sublimation paper first and then needing to heat press the substrate or garment,” says Guariglia. “This is obviously timeconsuming when you get into volume.” And while the technology is wondrously versatile (a single solution for apparel, signage, hard goods and more), it only works on apparel with synthetic fibers (ruling out cotton). Oversized and allover decorations on finished garments can pose challenges due to seams, folds and raised areas blocking the design. Sublimating before the cut-andsew process is ideal, but very few shops have those capabilities. These roadblocks are far from insurmountable. It doesn’t mean decorators are left to their own devices. The size of a sublimation printer determines what it can be used for (larger ones, for example, can accommodate bigger signage and all-over apparel printing), and Sawgrass has expanded the range of its printer sizes to accommodate a wider range of applications. “Digital decoration is now more accessible than ever, and it’s not so much the advent of more technologies as it is the size and affordability of the options,” Kavanagh says. Sweatshirts with custom sublimated hood linings are the top-selling product at FPS, but that didn’t occur by happenstance. The supplier used

its website, product videos, ads, email blasts, media coverage and samples to educate end-buyers. “A physical sample or even a spec sample usually has the most success because it’s such a unique product and decorating process that end-users really need to see it in person to get the full impact,” Johnstone says. As a result, FPS produced 53% more custom sublimated hoodies in 2017 than the year before. Screen printing, embroidery and transfers have been around for decades, and most buyers are familiar with them. Beyond that, “we do find that a good majority of buyers are not educated across the board on a lot of techniques,” says Rowboat’s Guariglia. The company offers embroidery and screen printing in addition to dye-sub and DTG, and Guariglia says Rowboat makes a point of educating anyone about the techniques it offers. “It’s not only important to help guide certain projects and orders,” he says, “but it also helps create inspiration and open up modes of thinking these individuals might not have considered.” Decorators may hesitate to add these options because of their lack of knowledge. And even when they do, says Kavanagh, they may have trepidations about learning to use digital techniques or be too busy with their existing business to put in the time and energy they require. “As manufacturers, we take it upon ourselves to begin the education process for the industry, but we do have to decide who our target customers are and who’ll be open to digital techniques,” he concludes.

SPOTLIGHT

A decade old tryst with print, a two decade old love for printing

Anil Brahmbhatt, Managing Director of SkyScreen India started his journey a decade ago and has gradually taken the company to a new zenith. “There is more than 20-year history behind the 10 successful years of Skyscreen. I have been into screen printing business since 1992,” he said. From retail counter business at Mumbai’s Khadilkar Road – a dense wedding cards market – to a company that held distributorship of many reputed brands. Today, he is a partner of several internationally renowned brands like as Ulano, USA (for screen making films, chemicals and accessories); Nittoku-Japan (for Smart Mesh); Marabu-Germany (screen inks); Fimor-France (Squeegees); Zhongyi-

China (UV special effects varnishes), Stahls-USA (Heat Transfer vinyl films and Heat Press for garment decoration), and GCC-Taiwan (Plotter cutter), Vikiallo (Vinyl Remover) After 10 years long association with the consumables, Anil has now ventured into DTG business through an association with South Korea based ecofriendly and economic digital printing technology provider, Ecofreen. Ecofreen, with its factory at Gyeonggi-do city, manufactures digital textile printing machines. The company has developed a range of machines though intensive R&D, followed by a Kaizen inspired process of

constant improvement based on customers’ feedback. Skyscreen was one of the companies which had expressed interest in Ecofreen. “During our discussions, I sensed he was serious about the partnership. India is a potential growth market for our DTG printing machines and other products. It made total business sense to work in tandem,” David Kang, Chief Executive Officer of Ecofreen said. India is a very different market with varying environmental and shopfloor conditions. Thus, it warrants machines which take into consideration these factors. Commenting on the same, David said, “Our Ecofreen brand DTG printing with Double platen, Dx7 print head, is best suited for India market. We offer total solutions for DTG printing with the most diverse range of textile printing equipment.” The company also manufactures automatic pre-treat spray machine. “It is designed to pre-treat garments automatically before printing. With smooth and precise injection of this machine, you can get fine quality of printing and consistent outcome. It is light weight and has compact size. One can carry and place in the limited space,” he added. Anil has been an advocate of customer centricity. He states understanding customer’s need from diverse industry has been paramount to SkyScreen’s functioning as an organization. Thus it made sense why the decision to start with a DTG partnership. “The world is now moving towards digital including textile/garment decoration and why

SPOTLIGHT should we left behind? Although majorly we are dealing in screen printing materials, we have decided to diversify into direct to garment digital (DTG) printing segment so that a balance is maintained in our product portfolio. For the last 10 years we have been carrying out our screen printing materials business successfully with customers all over India, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh. However, to grow further we needed some additional attractive product portfolio, something Gen-Next. So DTG printing is a fast emerging area which we wanted tap quickly,” he said. Although their major area of business is still screen printing sector, two years ago Skyscreen had added digital and heat transfer element into its growing product portfolio. “Stahls range of products

is meant for starting personalized t-shirt printing business. We have a special Stahls Studio cum demo centre, spread over 600 sq. ft where customers come for trials and training. Moreover, we have also started offering personanlised t-shirt printing service to corporate and individual customers as we have a facility there,” added Anil. Even though his focus is to gain market in the digital space, discussing about the future growth, Anil stated that there is still a lot of promise in stencil making too. “In India there aren’t many such service providers. Many printers do not have in-house screen making set up, yet they want quality screens. Many offset printers who offer value addition do not have screen making set up. They also want quality stencils.

We felt the necessity to offer ready to use stencils. So, for the last ten years we have been offering ready to print stencils, in addition to ready to use screens. Our 7000 sq.ft facility situated at Bhiwandi houses this stencil making set up in addition to warehouse,” he concluded.

WALKTHETALK

Indovation from Chakr to fight Airpocalypse

‘Airpocalypse’, a report published by Greenpeace India claims every year nearly 1.2 million people lose their lives due to air pollution in the country. One of the major sources of this pollution is the unburnt fuel in the form of particulate matter (PM2.5 and PM10) which are released from diesel generators. The extent of the air pollution and the health hazards faced by the citizen is conspicuous from the media stories and series on how unbreathable the country becomes during the winters in the northern region of the country. For those who follow the Forbes issues and the TED Talks closely, it would be unlikely that they would have missed Chakr Innovation. An innovative technology startup started by three young college friends -- Arpit

Dhupar, Kushagra Srivastava and Prateek Sachan -- is creating a revolution through sustained pollution control by reducing emissions from diesel generators. The company’s core product Chakr Shield, captures diesel soot from generators and converts it into inks and paints. Kushagra Srivastava, cofounder and chief executive officer of Chakr Innovation, is an engineer from the Indian Institute of Technology Delhi. He was born and brought up in New Delhi, one of the world’s most polluted cities and was inspired to take action when he saw his close ones suffer from the dreadful effects of air pollution. Kushagra credits the local sugarcane juice maker for the idea of innovation. It started as a joke between the three friends as

they sipped a glass of sugar cane juice. They noticed how a nearby wall was blackened by the fume spewed by a diesel generator. They joked that air pollutants should be extracted to paint all the walls of Delhi black. The idea helped them win numerous accolades, including winning the University of Chicago Urban Labs India Challenge, 2016. The rest is history. After a year’s research, a retrofit device called Chakr Shield was patented in 2016. It is a hardware machine which is attached to the exhaust system of diesel generators and it captures 70-90 per cent of the particulate matter, ranging from PM 1 and PM 2.5 to PM 10. The gas that is released from the exhaust comprises PM, sulphur and nitrogen oxides. In the end, a solution is added to the gas which gives ink

WALKTHETALK as a by-product that can be used for printer cartridges and paint. As of now, it has 18 customers across industries. Its first installation was at American Tower Corporation, and the biggest one was with oil and gas company where the challenging part was placing the product at the top of a high building. According to Kushagra, ever since their days in college, they all were interested in working something on cleaning technology and something that could help fight pollution. But why Chakr? Kushagra says the team thought over it for long and then they came to a conclusion: because it’s a cyclic process, where we use pollutants to create ink and paint — which is a value-added product, created out of waste. Chakr was part of BOSCH India’s DNA Accelerator Programme and got backing for product

development and technology commercialisation. In 2016, it was a winner of India Innovation Growth Programme, held by the Department of Science & Technology, and in August 2017, it won a grant for new technology development from Indian Oil Corp. It has raised over $1.5 million in form of equity funding and grants. The three co-founders later roped in Tushar Batham for product innovation, Bharti Singhla to head the brand’s strategy, Alok Goyal to look after business development. Today it is backed by a team of 18 engineers who have found a way to repurpose the carbon particle emitted from the diesel generators for a sustainable and greener tomorrow. This year, Kushagra and his

team are going to test the system at 25 different locations in Delhi. These tests will take place alongside 25 other sites where the device will not be present. Throughout the year, pollution levels in these locations will be compared. The device’s performance will be the basis on which the Delhi government will decide whether the Kushagra Srivastava technology deserves large-scale implementation. Now that’s what we call Indovation – Indian innovation for the larger good.

BUSINESS

Long before one can write an obituary for print

Although the industry has had to contend with an influx of digital technologies in recent years, a new study by Two Sides suggests consumers still prefer print when it comes to recreational reading. Commissioned in June 2017, the survey asked more than 10,700 consumers in 10 countries around the world about their preferences when it came to reading print and digital communications. One of the most intriguing findings from the report was that 72 per cent of all respondents cited print as their preferred media for reading books, compared to just nine per cent that listed e-books as their preference. Printed magazines also proved just as popular, with 72 per cent opting for print over digital. Speaking about the recent findings, Tandy Wakeford, events and membership manager at Two Sides, said: “Overall, findings conclude that consumers around the world trust, enjoy and gain a deeper understanding of information read

in print, with clear signs of digital fatigue, particularly amongst the younger generations. There is a crisis in confidence for digital media advertising following stories of big brand ads appearing alongside terrorist, child abuse or fake news content. Given the recent report in New York Times, that consumer trust in traditional media has risen to 61 per cent, alongside our own research, it is fair to say that print remains the preferred media to address consumer choice and our industry should remain positive and optimistic.” The results of the survey reflect something of a wider trend in the global printing industry, with confidence in the media noticeably on the up. While print-based publications are a clear favourite among consumers, agencies and brands are returning to print to help spread their messages to the public, as opposed to digitalbased methods such as email.

India on growth path According to the latest Indian Readership Survey, the total readership of newspapers (including the smaller local titles that are not registered with the INS) has crossed 40 crore from the earlier number of 29 crore plus readers. Although it is not absolutely right to compare the figures of 2014 (when it was last held) and now, since the methodology has undergone a huge change. Surprisingly, there has been a rejig at the top 20 publications with Times of India standing as a lone English publication in the rankings. Dainik Jagran, Hindustan and Dainik Bhaskar lead the rank list, while Deccan Herald reported a decline in its circulation. However, there is a silver lining. Despite the onslaught from digital medium print readership is apparently growing. Ashish Bhasin, chairman MRUC (Media Research Users Council) and chairman and CEO, Dentsu Aegis Networks said, “According to the findings of the Report, 39% of Indians (12+ years) read newspapers, and 20% of all newspaper readers in 50 Lakh plus population towns read newspapers online. These numbers most definitely tell us that there is a bright future waiting for the Print industry. I’m also hoping that we will now begin to see advertisers and media agencies taking Print more seriously. Increased readership numbers for newspapers and magazines will pave the way for publishers to increase their revenues, which would in turn help increase the size of Print as a medium.”

Move over 3D Printing. We’ve RLP

Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have developed a revolutionary new form of 3D printing that can produce large objects such as chairs in a fraction of the time of regular printers. Rapid Liquid Printing physically draws in 3D space within a gel suspension, and enables the creation of large scale, customized products made of real-world materials. Compared with other techniques we believe this is

| SCREENTEX | February - March 2018

the first development to combine industrial materials with extremely fast print speeds in a precisely controlled process to yield largescale products. 3D printing hasn’t taken off as a mainstream manufacturing process f or three main reasons: 1) it’s too slow compared to conventional processes like injection molding, casting,

milling, etc. 2) it’s limited by scale – although it’s good for creating small components, it’s not possible to produce large scale objects 3) the materials are typically lowquality compared to industrial materials. Rapid Liquid Printing addresses all of these limitations: it is incredibly fast (producing structures in a matter of minutes), designed for large scale products

TECHNOLOGY

(you can print an entire piece of furniture) and uses real-world, industrial-grade materials. The Self-Assembly Lab worked with US furniture company Steelcase to develop the process known as Rapid Liquid Printing, which involves extruding material from a computer-controlled nozzle into gel. This allows them to print large-scale structures very quickly, creating a range of possibilities for furniture production. The team’s aim was to tackle the three main challenges that they believe have prevented 3D printing’s widespread adoption in manufacturing: speed, scale and material properties. According to the team, the reason why this is better than 3D printing technology is because nearly every printing process utilises layers, and those layers degrade the structural property of the material compared to a consistent material all the way

through. Rapid Liquid Printing allows the robotic aperture to draw freely in 3D space, constrained only by the size of the tank. The gel, similar to hair gel, suspends the extruded material so it does not have to fight gravity or require a base plate to build upon. The team has experimented with a variety of printing materials, including plastics, rubbers and polyurethanes with different properties. In each case, two materials are mixed in the nozzle and chemically cure as they are extruded. The material is pushed out like toothpaste from a tube, so has better structural integrity than if it was laid down as a series of layers – essential if it needs to bear weight. One of the first applications of Rapid Liquid Printing was a series of furniture pieces, presented during Milan design

week in April 2017. Collaborating with Swiss product designer Christophe Guberan, the team produced a set of items made from printed latticed surfaces to demonstrate the potential of the technology. Designer Yuka Hiyoshi from Steelcase has also used the process to create a tabletop that can be made to the exact size required by the customer, as part of a collection called Bassline. Steelcase sees the technology as an important step in developing customisable office furniture and spaces, while Tibbits believes it also has wider potential. He thinks it could utilised in any large-scale manufacturing, including aerospace, automotive and architectural applications. Tibbits presented the project during the Being Material symposium, which was organised by MIT’s Center for Arts Science and Technology (CAST) and took place from 20 to 22 April 2017.

Flexible, water-repellent graphene circuits for washable electronics

New graphene printing technology can produce electronic circuits that are low-cost, flexible, highly conductive and water repellent. The nanotechnology “would lend enormous value to self-cleaning wearable/washable electronics that are resistant to stains, or ice and biofilm formation,” according to a recent paper describing the discovery. ”We’re taking low-cost, inkjetprinted graphene and tuning it with a laser to make functional materials,” said Jonathan Claussen, an Iowa State University assistant professor of mechanical engineering, an associate of the U.S. Department of Energy’s Ames Laboratory and the corresponding author of the paper recently featured on the cover of the journal Nanoscale. The paper describes how Claussen and the nanoengineers in his

| SCREENTEX | February - March 2018

research group use inkjet printing technology to create electric circuits on flexible materials. In this case, the ink is flakes of graphene - the wonder material can be a great conductor of electricity and heat, plus it’s strong, stable and biocompatible. The printed flakes, however, aren’t highly conductive and have to be processed to remove non-conductive binders and weld the flakes together, boosting conductivity and making them useful for electronics or sensors. That post-print process typically involves heat or chemicals. But Claussen and his research group developed a rapid-pulse laser process that treats the graphene without damaging the printing surface - even if it’s paper. And now they’ve found another application of their laser

processing technology: taking graphene-printed circuits that can hold water droplets (they’re hydrophilic) and turning them into circuits that repel water (they’re superhydrophobic). “We’re micro-patterning the surface of the inkjet-printed graphene,” Claussen said. “The laser aligns the graphene flakes vertically - like little pyramids stacking up. And that’s what induces the hydrophobicity.” Claussen said the energy density of the laser processing can be adjusted to tune the degree of hydrophobicity and conductivity of the printed graphene circuits. And that opens up all kinds of possibilities for new electronics and sensors, according to the paper. “One of the things we’d be interested in developing is antibiofouling materials,” said Loreen

TECHNOLOGY Stromberg, a paper co-author and an Iowa State postdoctoral research associate in mechanical engineering and for the Virtual Reality Applications Center. “This could eliminate the buildup of biological materials on the surface that would inhibit the optimal performance of devices such as chemical or biological sensors.” The technology could also have applications in flexible electronics, washable sensors in textiles, microfluidic technologies, drag reduction, de-icing, electrochemical sensors and technology that uses graphene structures and electrical simulation to produce stem cells for nerve regeneration. The researchers wrote that further studies should be done to better understand how the nano- and microsurfaces of the printed graphene creates the water-

repelling capabilities. The current studies have been supported by grants from the National Science Foundation, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s National Institute of Food and Agriculture, the Roy J. Carver Charitable Trust plus Iowa State’s College of Engineering and department of mechanical engineering. The Iowa State University Research Foundation is working to patent the technology and has optioned it to an Amesbased startup, NanoSpy Inc., for possible commercialization. NanoSpy, located at the Iowa State University Research Park,

is developing sensors to detect salmonella and other pathogens in food processing plants. Claussen and Stromberg are part of the company. The graphene printing, processing and tuning technology is turning out to be very useful, Stromberg said. After all, “electronics are being incorporated into everything.”
