FUJIFILM Sericol India proudly participated in the 13th edition of the Asia Coat+Ink Show 2024, held from November 21–23 at the Bombay Exhibition Centre, NESCO, Mumbai. Organized by the All India Printing Ink Manufacturers Association (AIPIMA), the event showcased cutting-edge innovations in printing inks, coatings, and raw materials, attracting over 100 exhibitors and thousands of professional visitors from across the globe.
Dr. M.P. Raghav Rao, Managing Director of FUJIFILM Sericol India and President of AIPIMA, shared his thoughts on the significance of the show:
"The Asia Coat+Ink Show serves as a vital platform for bringing together global stakeholders in the printing and coating industries to exchange ideas, foster innovation, and explore sustainable solutions. The 2024 edition is particularly special as it reflects the industry's collective commitment to eco-friendly advancements and cutting-edge technologies, which are essential for a greener and more efficient future."
At the event, FUJIFILM Sericol highlighted its latest edition RXD of high-performance and eco-friendly inks, Triple Roll Mill Auto Scrapper and Covers and Automatic Tub Cleaning System (Patented)
Brief-
RXD-Aqueous inkjet pigment dispersions, Designed for the development of high-performance inksRxD: Reactive dispersant cross-linking technology RxD dispersions use a precision stabilization process that locks the pigment particles in a robust cage of the cross-linked polymer. The cross-linking reaction is independent of the pigment and prevents polymer disengagement in the presence of solvents. It also enables high pigment strength dispersions to be created without compromising stability.
Triple Roll Mill Auto Scrapper and Covers
The innovative auto-scrapping mechanism and metal guards used in triple-roll machines are beneficial during print production and cleaning operations. The auto scrapping mechanism reduces the operator’s manual intervention required for spreading of ink over the rolls as well as effectively scraps the layer of ink during the cleaning process. Whereas metal guard is a protective feature for a triple roll mill designed to overcome the hazards of direct exposure of volatile organic components (VOC) during the ink production process. Overall, the implementation of these innovative mechanism in TRM operation ensures a safe and more efficient ink manufacturing process.
