The show is scheduled to happen from 11 to 14 June, 2014.

Hemant Desai, QuadTech general manager, India, said, "With the Indian packaging industry growing at an annual rate of more than seven percent, it is an exciting time for the packaging industry in this region. However, much of this growth has come from international brands that demand high quality standards and quick turnaround times.”

Desai added, "With new production challenges, QuadTech's automated press control technologies provide Indian printers and converters not only with the tools to ensure workflow efficiencies, but also high quality, fast and consistent output and eventually help them in increasing productivity, maintaining colour consistency and dramatically reducing job setup times and wastages.”

QuadTech's offering at Packplus will include colour quality solutions, an in-line colour and ink control system utilising QuadTech’s colour measurement system with spectral cam. The spectral cam relays in-line spectral data to ink formulation software from X-Rite, resulting in a standard spectral colour measurement from ink dispensing and throughout all stages of the printing process. This automatically assures colour perfection to the final print and enables converters to simplify one of the most time-consuming and complex stages of make-ready.

QuadTech’s inspection system will be a highlight at the show. The inspection system inspects the entire substrate width, not just sample areas, 100% of the time, for defects throughout printing, rewinding and lamination. Suitable for flexo, gravure and offset printing situations, it achieves total defect detection with the press running uninterrupted.

Apart from this, QuadTech will also highlight additional products for waste savings and fast make-ready which include QuadTech PDF verification, for absolute repeatability and perfect quality, web viewing systemfor a customisable, fully automated, real-time digital view of the moving web that detects defects for error-free printing and minimal waste.

QuadTech’s waste management system processes information from the QuadTech inspection system and data central to enable precise defect removal and the minimisation of substrate waste.

"There is a bright future for all sectors of print in India. QuadTech has a variety of solutions to support both the upcoming opportunities, but also the challenges too. Our focus on print quality and the reduction of substrate waste helps converters to remain competitive whilst ensuring they meet the requirements of international brands. We look forward to meeting visitors at the show, and discussing how we can work with them to increase their profitability," Desai concluded.
