IppStar, with its long history of organizing nuts-and-bolts conferences across India, is organizing the Packaging Design Innovation Technology (PDIT) conference at PackTech 2016. The conference, organized in partnership with Messe Dusseldorf India in Mumbai, is not the usual packaging conference with back-to-back lectures from marketing executives but rather an attempt to knowledgeably address and interact on the difficult themes of food security and the environment together with the excitement of design, new innovations and technologies in packaging particularly as they pertain to food.

At PackPlus2016, Coimbatore-based Autoprint Machinery Manufacturers showed live demos of its automatic carton print inspection machine – Checkmate 50. KG Suresh, joint managing director of Autoprint, says, “In the last three to four years, Autoprint’s focus has been more on the postpress section of packaging. We have launched coating as well as diecutting machines. And in the last two years, we have been focussing more on the automatic carton inspection machine called Checkmate 50 which runs at a speed of 250 metres a minute, with three cameras inspecting simultaneously. The machine gives tremendous confidence to end customers to deliver defect-free products to their clients. It is very critical especially in the pharmaceutical, FMCG and other industries where quality standards have become much stricter.”
