3D-Printing, or Additive Manufacturing, has received significant media attention during the last five years. A number of companies are now commercializing materials, design tools, and 3D-Printers and these are being used in a number of sectors for digital manufacturing including aerospace, medical, construction and consumer products. But what impact is 3D-Printing having on electronic packaging and...
The paper presents the work on manufacturing and preliminary characterisation of fibre reinforced composite honeycomb structured composites by 3D printing. The capabilities and limitations of the processing are discussed. The work aims to compare the effectiveness of reinforcement using specimens of similar dimensions produced on the same machine and characterise them. Initially, tensile performance...
The purposes of this study are to analyze — (1) the dissimilarities in job attitude of modern technology enabled (web-fed printing press) and outmoded (sheet-fed printing press) printing press workers; and (2) the factors influencing outmoded printing press workers intention to adopt Advanced Printing Technology (APT) in Bangladesh. Nine variables are selected based on literature review to measure...
The emergence of new technologies will eventually create the relationship among different industries, and the different relationships among industries will reversely promote the continuous development of new technologies. This article proposes a procedural method with patent data to identify technology-related industries and analyze the inter-industrial relationships from a technical point of view...
Flexographic printing technology prints liquid ink on absorbent as well as non-absorbent substrates. Owing to developments in plate and anilox roll manufacturing technology, now we can comfortably print half tone with resolution of 100 LPI (Lines per Inch) and above. This has helped flexographic printer to reproduce monochrome continuous tone and full color graphic original, matching performance of...
This study aims to analyze patent portfolio of three-dimensional printing industry, future trends, as well as to explore how patent strategy could be developed. A total of 1089 patents that belong to 3D printing technologies are retrieved from the United State Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) patent database for analysis. There are two objects in this research: first, from the patent perspective...
DOCSCOPE is an ANR project dedicated to the exploration of new approaches to authenticate ID documents and to detect falsification or counterfeiting. In this paper we focus on the usage of printing techniques signature.
This paper presents the preliminary result of an empirical investigation on the offering of document management solutions. In particular, this work addresses how the solution provider defines the requirements of the services that, through full service contracts, are bundled with products such as printers, multifunctional devices, wide format plotters, etc. Two case studies have been carried out among...
The Press and Publishing industry is the core of the cultural industry, and cultural industrial security is closely linked with Press and Publishing industry. The article first defined the connotation and content of China's industrial security of Press and Publishing industry, and then analyzed the security problems of Press and Publishing industry. Finally, the article put forward corresponding suggestions...
In recent years industries and colleges have had a greater need for improved six sigma training. Presented in the following paper will be an up to date analysis of the current six sigma curriculum being taught here at Bradley University. This paper attempts to address the problem with the lack of educational training engineers have when entering a six sigma improvement process for their given industry...
Due to the governments' supports and aggressive business worldwide expansion, the supply has gradually exceeded the demand in solar cell industry, which causes a serious competition in market and thus profit drops. This study proposes a feasible solution to re-layout base on the idea of cellular manufacturing, and uses the multiple criteria decision-making method (MCDM) to evaluate the best alternative...
An increasing automation of all the steps in the process of a printing industry generates an enormous potential for innovation not only in the field of machinery and equipment but also in processing in near future. In the area of prepress, where technological developments have been gradually transformed from an intensive low-tech labor to a high technology industry with a better quality and efficiency...
It cost much time to transfer color printed on paper or cloth by post office in traditional printing & dying industry. In this paper, we present a method of emending color measured by different spectrophotometers for computer-aided color matching. This method emends the color data measured by different spectrophotometers using PANTONE color cards as criterion to reduce color aberration while transferring...
Printing is an art of duplication. Infact it is an art, science & technology of reproduction of 'n' number of replicas of an original/literature/catalogue etc. with the help of a suitable printing process on the desired substrate and surface. It is declared as the "Greatest Invention of Millennium" by Time magazine, USA. And the spectrum of Time magazine is very well known. It is the...
Despite talk of “paperless” office concepts since as long ago as 1975, it appears in 2010 that printing is here to stay. Paper documents remain central for much of office life, and the printers within an organization are still critical to productivity. Due to the intense competition of imaging industry, each successful enterprise develops by means of exploring a unique business model which is suitable...
in this paper, we introduced a evaluation indexes system for printing enterprises' informatization based on the relative model of China national informatization evaluation center. These indexes considered both general informatization evaluation model and the printing industry's features. Then we did some investigations on several printing enterprises to verify the indexes. By the result, we finally...
The book publishing industry has a complete industry chain and value chain of internal operation of the press. Due to the changes of technology, policies, and society, this traditional value change is undergoing a series of transformations. In order to sustain its competitiveness in the new commercial environment, book publishing enterprises have to adopt the operation models and operation strategies...
The paper has studied the result of degradation of organics and decolorization in the wastewater from pen making workshop that was treated by internal electrolysis and subsequent SBR (Sequencing Batch Reactor). The optimal conditions of internal electrolysis-SBR are: the influent pH was 6, the hydraulic retention time (HRT) 20min during the internal electrolysis, then pH was changed to 7 and HRT 6h...
Following the success of the semiconductor and flat panel displays, Flexible Electronics is expected to become the next wave industry. The characteristic of Flexible Electronics is not only reduced production cost and they have lightweight, thinner, non-breakable and new forms to create many new applications. It can be leveraging Taiwan's fast integration capability to create new products and applications...
JDF (Job Definition Format) is an industry standard designed to describe job information and exchange data between different applications or systems in printing industry. According to the characteristic of JDF job ticket in XML (extensible Markup Language) format, the paper uses DOM (Document Object Model) interface in Java application to parse JDF document. The analytical result is stored in a relational...
