Adoption of digital technology in industrial applications

Digital printing using inkjet technology offers benefits across a wide range of industrial applications. These benefits include the ability to introduce new designs and products rapidly, defining deposition digitally so that it can be changed every time, depositing onto delicate substrates without contact, and depositing functional materials as well as just colours.

Landa steals the biggest print show on earth

For the past couple of months we’ve heard snippets of information about Benny Landa’s new digital printing technology nanography.

Where have all the printers gone?

I write the news section of Pivotal Resources’ “Directions” inkjet patent review publication. I just completed the March-April edition. If this hardly seems like news, bear in mind that it is meant to reflect the industry news at the time that the patents issued. The patents can’t be viewed and reviewed in real time, so to speak, so everything is a couple of months in arrears.
