Clemson University to Host Corrugated Symposium

FUNDAMENTALS OF QUALITY PRINT ON CORRUGATED SYMPOSIUM
Presented by FFTA & Clemson University
February 21-23, 2007 Clemson University, Clemson SC

This 2 1/2 day program provides participants with an in-depth overview of the elements of the printing system, examining board liners, anilox, doctor blades, inks and plate systems to demonstrate how they are integrated to produce enhanced graphics from clean solids and line work to halftones and even process color. Participants will develop a thorough understanding of controlling the combinations of press and pre-press possibilities to best suit their needs. The discussion will include tools and methods that any plant can implement to analyze and improve print quality.

HANDS-ON SESSIONS:
There are a number of interactive breakouts, demos and a troubleshooting workshop to identify press issues and recommend corrective action.
