Non-Contact Lsser Scanning

| Company: | Laser Design Inc. |
| The challenge: Determine if a capital investment in larger diameter embossing modules is needed instead of the current embosser. Embossing serves several purposes on the surface and within absorbent pads of disposable hygiene products. On the surface, embossing can introduce an aesthetically pleasing pattern onto the pad, e.g. appearing soft, which can also affect fit and comfort attributes. It also has a functional purpose of controlling and directing surface flows. The embossing process is evaluated by the resulting embossing quality, which may be a composite measure of embossing depth, breadth, and shape.

Soft drink bottler takes chance on new stretch wrapping technology, wins uptime lottery
|
| Company: | Lantech |
| Buffalo Rock Company – a private, family-owned Pepsi and Cadbury Schweppes bottler – has the flexibility to make quick decisions, so when given the opportunity to shakedown an alpha model of Lantech's patent-pending No Film Break stretch wrapping machine in 2008, the company took the offer. "We were already planning to buy an equivalent Lantech rotary-arm machine – without No Film Break – and determined this alpha machine trial was low risk to us, with the manufacturer standing behind it and able to monitor its performance through an on-line connection," says George Garrison, general manager of manufacturing at Buffalo Rock. |

It goes without saying that just as important is the design and presentation of the safety labels themselves. |
