Surface Energy and Abrasion Resistance Characteristics of Conventional and New Optimized Surface for Gravure Cylinders Paid Members Public
Presented by Chandramohan SS, Western Michigan University
Static Control for Gravure Coating Electrostatic Assist Paid Members Public
Presented by Kelly Robinson, Electrostatic Answers LLC High-quality images may be gravure printed on a variety of substrates including insulators like polyethylene (PE) and polyethylene terephthalate (PET). However, when ink transfer is poor, voids occur in printed images causing the “snowflake” defect. Electrostatic assist (ESA) for gravure coating greatly reduces
Regimes of Reverse Gravure Coating Paid Members Public
Presented by Ted Lightfoot, Ted Lightfoot LLC Gravure coating has a reputation for being unpredictable. This is largely because, beside the different configurations of gravure coating (direct, offset, reverse, kiss), there are several different regimes of coating for each configuration. The regime depends on the nature of the substrate, the

Static Protection Design for Printed Electronics Paid Members Public
Presented by Kelly Robinson, Electrostatic Answers LLC Electrostatic Discharges (ESD) or sparks can damage electronic devices. An energetic spark can cause thermal damage (burn components). And, the current surge from the spark can damage conductive traces and cause momentary high voltages that damage insulating layers. Static control for traditional semiconductor
