Sakurai to Showcase Package Screen Printing, Embellishment Demonstrations at PRINTING United Expo
Sakurai will highlight live package screen printing and embellishment demonstrations in booth N635 at Printing United Expo, Oct. 19-21, 2022 in Las Vegas.
Colorful Las Vegas-themed cartons will be screen printed on a Sakurai Maestro MS-80All cylinder screen press equipped with a Sakurai ScreenFoil LQM 105 in-line hot foil stamper, and a Natgraph UV dryer and stacker. The screen-printed and foiled sheets will be die-cut and converted into finished cartons in Rollem International’s Booth N593 at Printing United.
“For over 50 years, Sakurai has been showcasing high-speed sheet-fed screen printing,” said David Rose, vice president, Sakurai USA Inc. in a press statement. “At PRINTING United, Sakurai will be demonstrating Screen Foil, a combination of UV spot coating and hot foil stamping in-line. This is a game changer in visual effects for print embellishment. Sakurai’s family of high-speed screen-printing presses are widely accepted as the benchmark equipment for off line special effects and industrial commercial graphics produced by this traditional process.”
Sakurai’s workhorse MS-80AII cylinder screen press is used for a myriad of industrial and commercial screen-printing applications such as packaging, tagless labels, heat-applied transfers, pressure sensitive applications, printed electronics, medical, and more. The MS-80AII screen press accepts sheets up to 21 3/4” x 31 5/8” and operates at speeds up to 3,600 IPH. The Maestro prints on a wide range of substrates such as plastic, film, paper, board, and foil with accurate spot coating and special effects.
The LQM 76 and LQM 105 ScreenFoil Evolution LQM Series present a cost-effective in-house solution for hot foil finishing without the need for dies. Now available in two sizes, the LQM 76 accepts sheet sizes up to 23 1/2” x 22 1/2”, and the LQM 105 accepts sheet sizes up to 41 1/2” x 30”.
Sakurai experts will be on hand in at PRINTING United Expo in Las Vegas to assist in custom designing a fully integrated screen printing, UV curing system with hot foil finishing for your specific requirements.
