Global Graphics Software, a Hybrid Software Group company, has appointed Lawrence Geere as OEM Sales Manager, EMEA. Lawrence will work closely with the company’s OEM customers to enable them to maximize the potential of the rapidly evolving digital inkjet market.

Two major factors that affect the lifetime of LEDs are temperature and current. As LEDs convert electricity into light, heat is created within the p-n junction, known as the junction temperature. For an LED diode to achieve maximum life expectancy, the junction temperature must remain in a safe operating zone.

Not all LED lamps with the same peak irradiance have the same total curing power. LED lamps with low energy density often have focusing optics that artificially bump up peak irradiance. Energy density is the key to ensuring adhesion and cure at high speeds.

Redfern Labels installed the new MPS EF 340 next-generation flexo press at its production facility in Johannesburg. Patrick Aengenvoort, of Rotocon and Marius van Lith of MPS sold the machines with the installation completed by service technicians.

As UV LED curing continues to grow at a rapid pace, leading ink manufacturers are putting significant R&D resources into UV LED inks to meet customer demand.

Phoseon recently visited a label converter in Europe with eight printing presses and learned that one third of the entire energy consumption of the factory is attributed to the mercury lamps on the presses.
