PlascoTex unveils new lamination tech that will cut costs

PlascoTec has developed two special coatings - PlascoSAM and PlascoSLIDE - for lamination plates which it says will reduce wear and improve anti-stick performance “drastically”, thus allowing coatings card manufacturers to reduce production costs. PlascoSLIDE reduces the adhesion of foils (PC, PVC, PET- G) as well as unwanted residues from the lamination process on the lamination plate surface, improving product quality and cutting the need for cleaning during production. Meanwhile PlascoSAM has high ha

PlascoTec has developed two special coatings - PlascoSAM and PlascoSLIDE - for lamination plates which it says will reduce wear and improve anti-stick performance “drastically”, thus allowing coatings card manufacturers to reduce production costs.

PlascoSLIDE reduces the adhesion of foils (PC, PVC, PET- G) as well as unwanted residues from the lamination process on the lamination plate surface, improving product quality and cutting the need for cleaning during production. Meanwhile PlascoSAM has high hardness and very good scratch resistance, both of which help to prolong plate lifetime as well as bring down overall cost. Both coatings are available with PlascoTec’s FlowSTOP technology, which prevents unwanted material flow on the lamination plate, and can be applied on steel as well as on brass/nickel/ chromium plates.

  • Companies depend on automation, AI and machine learning for cyber security
    February 23, 2018
    To defend against cyber attacks, 39% of organisations are reliant on automation, 34% on machine learning and 32% on artificial intelligence (AI), according to the Cisco 2018 annual report conducted on 3,600 chief information security officers. It found that over half of all attacks resulted in financial damages of more than $500,000 (£697,000), including, but not limited to, lost revenue, clients, opportunities, and out-of-pocket costs. The study revealed that adversaries are using Malware sophistication

    German company Ages Maut System will promote the e-Vignette as an intelligent solution for road user charging (RUC). As the company points out, the e-Vignette has the advantage of simplicity while achieving high compliance from drivers. In comparison with distance-based charging systems, a costly on-board unit is not required; also, no interaction with roadside infrastructure is necessary and data protection is achieved without technical complexity. Ages Maut says the system is ideal for countries which w
