In
continuation of its policy to be transparent and educational, SMI is
introducing two new tools at the Labelexpo India show. The transparency
displayed in their specification sheets, curved diameter indicator, sample sets
and industry brochures are already well appreciated in the industry.
With a set of leading 7
questions in the newly introduced user friendly SMI product selector app, the
user is easily led to the appropriate SMI product that is suitable for the
application. Further the user can straightaway ask for specification sheet,
samples or order through the app. In addition to the product selector industry
related calculators are also present.
One of the calculator is simple
and is designed to calculate the length of a roll. Just by feeding the width,
height, matrix widths, number of labels, the second calculator gives the
running length, square meters as well as wastage due to matrix for a particular
job. It also shows the wastage for a job if printed in different ups, thus
helping the printer to decide which combination of ups and running meters will
have the minimum wastage. In a cost conscious industry these are very simple to
use but effective tools.
SMI has plans to introduce more
tools to aid the industry in the near future. Appreciating the rise in filmic
labels, they are launching a new sample set showing different types of Filmic
Label stock solutions only. The specification sheets accompanying the samples
highlight the important characteristics and uses of these materials.
