# Flexographic Printing Processes to be Highlighted at FTA 2017

 by [**Luminite**](https://blog.luminite.com/blog/author/luminite) on Sep 12, 2017, 9:50:08 AM

The annual [Flexographic Technical Association Fall Conference](https://www.flexography.org/conferences-events/fall-conference/) will be quickly upon us. Slated for Oct. 9-11 in St. Louis, FTA 2017 will give hundreds in the realm of flexographic printing services numerous educational and networking opportunities.

We always enjoy sending a contingent of company reps to mingle and soak in the wisdom to boost our efforts - and, more importantly, improve the customer’s flexo products. In particular, we’re looking forward to attending the Tuesday, Oct. 10 speaker sessions, for which **flexographic printing** **processes are a key theme**.

As flexography continues to move forward, combining with digital as one printing unit, all 5 sessions on Tuesday are a must attend for anyone in the printing industry.

You’ll find us following this schedule that day:

- 7:30 a.m. – 8:30 a.m. - Continental Breakfast
- 8:30 a.m. – 10:00 a.m. - Showcasing the 2017 Technical Innovation Award Winners
- 10:00 a.m. – 10:30 a.m. - Refreshment Break & Tabletop Exhibits
- 10:30 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. - Technical Innovation in Action

**October FLEXO Magazine Cover Hybrid Print Project **

**Calibrating the Processes **

- 12:00 p.m. – 1:15 p.m. - Complimentary Lunch & Tabletop Exhibits
- 1:15 p.m. – 2:30 p.m. - Fingerprinting the Processes

**Characterizing the Processes **

- 2:30 p.m. – 3:15 p.m. - Refreshment Break & Tabletop Exhibits
- 3:15 p.m. – 4:30 p.m. - Controlling the Processes for Production

**Analyzing the Results **

- 4:30 p.m. – 6:00 p.m. - Evening Reception & Tabletop Exhibits

A goal of FTA 2017 is to promote the following principles:

- Innovation
- Consistency
- Quality
- Customer Confidence

These are goals we try to achieve daily in our flexographic printing sleeves, cylinders, and plates. They’re also goals we try to achieve as a [family heritage business](https://luminite.com/customer-service/our-heritage/).

Flexographers in attendance this year will attend a variety of educational sessions over the 3-day experience, some of which will touch upon new technologies in the industry. The Tabletop Exhibit will feature 65 companies [demonstrating products](https://luminite.com/products/) in addition to offering one-on-one problem solving. We will be at booth 217.

[Stay tuned here](https://blog.luminite.com/blog) for a detailed breakdown of valuable sessions.
