Bobst Hosts Open House Event
SAFETY FIRST® DOCTOR BLADE GLOVES
+
COMPETENCE 18, this year’s Open House event at Bobst, which took place June 5-8, 2018 at the Compe- tence Center of Bobst Mex, Switzerland, attracted more than 600 visitors. The show promised to show the “Solutions for the challenge of tomorrow,” ad- dressing key trends facing packaging converters, such as the need for shorter runs, greater versatility, e-commerce and constant innovation. Live Demos Attendees were able to see live demonstrations of selected key Bobst machines, and to hear from Bobst Services on some new developments. Highlights included the live demonstration of fold- er-gluer EXPERTFOLD 165 with the automated pack- er SPEEDPACK. There were live demonstrations of MASTERCUT 106 PER and MASTERCUT 145 PER. In addition, attendees had the chance to see EX- PERTFOIL 142 in action, as well as the MASTERFOLD 230. On the printing side of things, a static module of M8 LEMANIC inline flexo printing press was avail- able at the event. With printing samples available at the event, there were many questions from converters about the sim- plicity of the flexo process vs. offset, and how it is possible to achieve the print quality on display. Visi- tors were reportedly impressed by the sheer ease of using flexo technology compared with offset, and the greater consistency in the end result. Printing Industries of America is currently seeking speakers for its 2019 Continuous Improvement Con- ference to be held April 14-17, 2019, at the Fairmont Hotel in downtown Dallas, Texas. Conference orga- nizers are seeking industry professionals willing to share their lessons learned in implementing continu- ous improvement strategies. In the past, some speakers have been executives while others have been operations, production or process improvement managers. Also welcome are submissions from continuous improvement consul- tants and professionals outside the industry if the topics are directly relevant to print manufacturers. The deadline to submit a speaking proposal is Au- gust 31.All topic submissions will be reviewed by the Continuous Improvement Advisory Committee. PIA Seeks Continuous Improvement Speakers

pected to actively adopt smart labelling for their ben- efits in tracking products. Growing sales of biologics and specialty drugs that require thermal-sensitive packaging are promoting the use of smart labels that are equipped with tem- perature-control functions. Smart labels will be inte- grated in drug monitor ing systems across pharmaceutical manufacturers in the world, facilitat- ing efficiency in transportation, anti-counterfeit mea- sures, and damage control.
