Digital Printing-Inkjet Roll-to-Roll

Domino Digital Printing has developed 'Textures by Domino,' a new inkjet capability of the Domino N610i label press, which allows converters to add digital tactile elements to labels.

Mark Michelson, editor-in-chief of Printing Impressions, spoke with Yishai Amir, CEO of Landa Corp., about the company's plans for the rollout of its Nanographic digital presses in the United States.

What will the future of digital printing in packaging look like? For our June issue, we asked industry experts for their take on the technology. Read on for a sneak preview of their insight.

Konica Minolta made major advancements into new markets, including labels and packaging, during drupa 2016. The company also made numerous sales of digital printing devices and software services during the show.

Landa is reporting a highly successful drupa, which included €450 million in orders for Nanographic printing presses and several fully booked theater presentations.

Despite its gradual growth, digital printing has shaken up the packaging world in recent years. But what does the future look like?

Domino Digital Printing had a great start to drupa 2016 after its seven-color N610i digital label press won the category of Best Label Printer at the European Digital Press Awards ceremony.

Landa has announced that it has entered into strategic partnerships with Quad/Graphics, the largest publication printer in the U.S., and with Cimpress, the global leader in mass customization and Web-to-print. In addition, Landa announced that it will deploy its presses at beta sites in Europe and the U.S. during 2017.

The future of packaging was largely considered on the first day of drupa 2016, including digital and corrugated packaging technologies.

HP's PageWide Web Presses for corrugated printing feature water-based HP A50 inks, intended for printing on the non-food contact surface of corrugated paperboard packaging.
