Flint Group Packaging and Narrow Web is set to introduce its new solvent based ink systems PamioStar Outdoor which provides good adhesion and resistance properties for production of durable outdoor bags and FlexiTech Shrink-U.
Flint said it will also unveil Flexocure FORCE, high definition UV Flexo inks; Flexocure ANCORA, high performance low migration UV Flexo inks; BioCure F UV Flexo inks based on bio-renewable resin technology; and Cast & Cure Coatings for the packaging and label production with UV curing inks and coatings.
Flint's Flexographic Products division will introduce its new nyloflex NExT exposure technology for producing precise image reproduction as well as flat top dots.
The new technology uses UV-A LEDs to conduct a rapid crosslinking of the polymer surface before the oxygen can inhibit the reaction. The LEDs can then be combined with standard UV-A tubes to complete the through cure of the image to the floor of the polymer plate, the company said.
The resulting image is virtually a 1:1 reproduction from the image on the LAMS layer.
