Where Flexibility Meets Durability: Printing on Continuous Webs with UV-Cured Inkjet Technology
When it comes to flexible packaging, manufacturers face a tough challenge: how do you print variable data, crisp graphics, and high-resolution barcodes on films and continuous webs—while still ensuring durability for shipping, handling, and retail environments?
At Squid Ink, we’ve engineered the perfect solution: our CoPilot® Family of Printing Systems paired with UV LED Curing Equipment. This powerful combination delivers precision, permanence, and production efficiency for today’s most demanding packaging needs.
Precision Printing with CoPilot® Systems
At the heart of the solution is Squid Ink’s CoPilot Printing Systems, powered by advanced Piezo inkjet technology. These printers make it easy to handle a wide range of applications, from:
- High-resolution QR codes and barcodes for compliance and traceability
- Logos, branding, and crisp graphics for shelf appeal
- Lot-specific variable data for better inventory management and recalls
Every mark is sharp, consistent, and ready to meet the challenges of modern supply chains.
Permanent Prints with UV LED Curing
Pairing our printers with Squid Ink’s UV LED Curing Equipment takes performance a step further. With instant curing, your prints are:
- Durable – resistant to abrasion, moisture, and handling
- Fast – dry the moment they’re printed, keeping production lines moving
- Versatile – capable of printing on a wide range of flexible films and substrates
This means your packaging is not only compliant but also built to last through distribution and customer use.
