The total cost of label production is determined by three key factors: quality, cost, and productivity. These must not be considered in isolation from each other, which nevertheless occurs due to the complexity in practice. While clear ideas exist regarding the achievable quality and costs of a label printing machine prior to any investment decision, productivity in consideration of the process variability often receives too little attention when making a purchase decision. How big the influence of this criterion on the total operating costs is, is shown in the following example.

At the Chili Publish Spicy Talks in Berlin on November 6th to 7th, it became clear that there is still plenty of room for automation in the printing and creative industries. This is likely to cause some stir within the industry, and that might especially be true for Central and Eastern European countries.

About 200 members of the "Smart Template Community" came to the "Silent Green" location at Berlin-Wedding. The fourth (official) edition of the Chili Publish Spicy Talks took place a former crematorium-turned-event-location: Two full days on the topics of Smart Templates, automation, design, as well as future business models in the printing industry. The conference was split into three tracks, between which users and interested parties could switch at leisure.

Now that the holidays are over, it’s time to get back to work. We’ve seen an enormous number of changes over the past decade, and since the phrase 2020 also signifies perfect eyesight, it seems appropriate to kick off the year with an assessment of some of the trends that we can expect to encounter over the next few years.

The past decade has shown four big trends for those of us involved in printing – the growth of inkjet, the emergence of industrial printing, the development of additive manufacturing and a general embrace of cloud computing – and naturally these will continue and, most likely, define the next decade, at least in terms of the printing industry.
