| Summary |
Efficiently and profitably delivering quality flexible packaging to the marketplace requires designing and manufacturing products that are both ""fit-to-use"" and ""fit-to-make"". The engineering function in a flexible packaging enterprise must attend to these dual design challenges. Flexible Packaging discusses the basic processes used to manufacture flexible packaging products, including rotogravure printing, flexographic printing, adhesive lamination, extrusion lamination/coating; and finishing/slitting. These processes are then related to the machines used to practice them, emphasising |
