Precision Printing for Printed Electronics

For many years we have manufactured precise engraving machines for the gravure printing market. We then developed the MicroStar MicroEngraving System to engrave cylinders for printed electronics and more.

AccuPress

And now, Ohio Gravure Technologies offers the AccuPress MicroGravure Printing system*, introduced at the Printed Electronics World show in San Jose, CA, December 2009. In September 2011, the AccuPress was awarded the GAA Golden Cylinder for Technical Innovation.

Designed for the tight tolerances and high accuracy required for printed electronics, this high-precision laboratory gravure press uses cylinders engraved by the MicroStar. This precision gravure printer can be used to test inks on a variety of substrates.
