taking place each year in the U.S. This is a significant
opportunity in an industry currently underserved. Digital

the person who passed including the casket, stone markers,
photo panels, and digitally printed casket wraps.

[Track: Screen Printing]

LED exposure systems burst onto the scene a few years ago with
lots of excitement and unfortunately some opinions and conjecture.
If you are thinking about investing in this technology, you'll need to
make an objective decision. What are LED exposure units? What
makes it a good one from a bad one? Is faster exposure always
better? When should I look into this upgrade from my current light
system and does this affect my current emulsion system? Get solid
answers in this informative session.

D07 Artwork for Vinyl Cutting
[Track: Digital Decorating]
2:15 p.m. - 3:00 p.m.
Dane Clement, Great Dane Graphics
When creating designs for vinyl cutting, having your artwork set
up properly from the beginning can save you a lot of time and
trouble during the production process. Improperly prepared
artwork can cause cutting issues that later translate into weeding
issues. Let Dane show you the proper techniques to consider
when creating a CAD-CUT design to help it run more efficiently
during production. Line thickness, spacing and the number of
cavities all are things to consider for a good vinyl cut design.
