Lithography and Pre Press

Every decorative tin must begin with art development and printing. High quality printing sets the standard for a high quality presentation.

Independent Can continues to invest in the printing and pre press processes. 

1.     Purchased and are installing the latest software for pre-press which will allow for us to out put designs and proofs faster and more accurately.

2.     Sold all of our old technology printing systems and have set the standard for printing in the United States. We will only print on 4 and 6 color continuous grip printing lines allowing the highest resolution of printing and the fastest change over time of any equipment available in the world.

3.     Ordered a new coating line to be installed in the fall of 2011 which will increase our coating speed by 20-30%, and our capacity by over 30%. This line will utilize 20-25% less energy then the older line, while providing the cleanest technology available today.

KBA Metal Print: Energy and Emissions Friendly

 “In 2009 we (KBA)  started to produce the HIGH-ECON oven for drying metal sheets with integrated air purification which only required 30% for both, drying and air purification that is needed for drying alone in the old systems. At the same time the emission of CO2 will be reduced by 70%.thus making environmental protection a cost effective pleasure.”  (full article)

HIGH-ECON OVEN

 

We are excited about the future of the can industry and the prospects for growth. The tin can is environmentally one of the most eco friendly packages available while providing product integrity, innovation and graphics second to none.
