Esko Launches Six-city CDI Flexo Imaging Tour
MIAMISBURG, OH—October 30, 2013—Esko will be launching a series of free educational summits designed to educate guests the latest in flexo imaging technology. The series is called The 'Real' Flexo Experience.
“Who else is more qualified to explain the technology of flexo plate imaging than Esko?” asked Mark Quinlan, president of Esko Americas. “The vast majority of all flexo plates imaged globally are produced on an Esko CDI. Our experience can offer any company—from tradeshop to converter—a realistic overview of the technology and what can be expected from both a quality and an economic perspective.”
Esko will be transporting a CDI 2420 flexo imager to meeting rooms throughout the United States: in Kansas City (Nov. 14), Dallas (Nov 21), Oakland (Dec. 3) and Atlanta (Dec. 11). The summits will conclude with open houses at Esko offices in Ludlow, MA (Dec. 17) and Esko Americas headquarters in Miamisburg, OH (Dec. 19).
Esko will repeat HD Flexo and Full HD Flexo workshops in the morning and afternoon. The CDI flexo imager will be operating throughout the day to show guests how flexo plates are imaged. A team of Esko representatives will also be available to answer any questions. A presentation offering an overview of structural packaging design will be offered at Ludlow, where the team of ArtiosCAD developers resides. A continental breakfast and luncheon will be served.
“From our experience with many, many platemaking facilities throughout the world, we know that HD Flexo technology can improve print quality and, more important, print consistency. In doing so, it can reduce press makeready time and waste,” explained Ian Hole, Esko's vice president of market development. “For those companies who are exploring direct to plate flexo technology, this will be an invaluable session.”
Those interested in enrolling or learning more about the sessions can contact Tim Zula, Esko's director of marketing communication, at info.usa@esko.com or (937) 535-6060.
