GIS to give talk on inkjet printing onto complex objects

GIS will present ‘Direct to Shape Printing on Complex Objects’ on day one of TheIJC 2018, taking place 16-17 October, Dusseldorf, Germany. Phil Collins, director, advanced R&D at GIS, will talk on the challenges and opportunities of working with robotic systems and inkjet.

Organised by ESMA to showcase the global growth of inkjet, TheIJC brings together industry and academic leaders in their fields to speak about the latest advances and future developments driving digital print. GIS, a technology provider to OEMs and system builders in the inkjet industry, has particular expertise in using inkjet for product decoration - now well-established for regular shapes such as cylindrical tubes and conical cups. The next step is to use robots to open up opportunities to decorate more complex, irregular shaped products.
