FAQs

What are UV Curable Inks?

UV Curable Inks are a liquid ink formulation consisting of monomers, oligomers and a small percentage of photo-initiators, which when exposed to high-intensity ultraviolet light, initiates a photochemical reaction that cures (harden) and causes the ink to adhere to most printing substrates.

What does Dyne Level refer to in UV printing?

Dyne level is a measurement of material surface tension, expressed in Dyne/cm. To ensure optimal application of UV inks on materials, a general rule is that the material’s dyne level should exceed the ink’s dyne level by at least 10 dyne/cm.

What are some of the Regulations in the cannabis packaging industry?

Cannabis packaging has some very strict regulations, including:

  • Batch and Lot Numbers: Essential for tracking and tracing product origins.
  • Expiration Dates: Important for consumer safety and product integrity.
  • Regulatory Warnings and Disclosures: Compliance with local and federal laws.
What is RFID Technology?

RFID, (Radio-Frequency Identification), is a groundbreaking technology that employs the use of radio waves to accurately identify and track both objects and individuals.

Can you print directly on your slitter/rewinder with digital inkjet?

Yes! With the addition of an inkjet printer mounted directly onto the slitter or rewinder, manufacturers can eliminate the need for a separate printing process, saving both time and money.

What are the benefits of integrating an inkjet printer onto a slitter or rewinder

The cost savings result from minimizing material waste and increasing production speed. Integrated printing eliminates the need for pre-printed labels or separate labeling equipment, reducing material costs and minimizing downtime caused by changing label rolls. Moreover, the real-time printing capability guarantees accurate and up-to-date information on every product, preventing the expenses associated with outdated or incorrect labeling.
