: This application simulates the heat-shrink process. Users can import 3D objects, define material properties, and virtually "shrink" a sleeve around them to see exactly where distortion occurs.
Eliminates multiple rounds of physical prototyping, cutting design approval times from weeks to days.
Esko Studio 10 offers a range of features and tools specifically designed to simplify shrink sleeve design. Some of its key features include: : This application simulates the heat-shrink process
As the film conforms to varying diameters of a bottle—such as a narrow neck and a wide body—the printed graphics stretch and compress unevenly.
: Use the "Add Sleeve" tool to set the access point, seam size, and orientation (vertical or horizontal). 2. Pre-Distortion & Artwork Correction Since graphics distort as the film shrinks, the Studio Toolkit plugin for Adobe Illustrator Esko Studio 10 offers a range of features
option. The software instantly calculates and applies a counter-distortion so that the final printed and shrunk product appears correct. 3. Realistic Visualization
: Designers can apply "counter-distortion" to their flat artwork with a single click, ensuring logos and text look correct after they have been shrunk onto the physical product. Visualization and Export : and orientation (vertical or horizontal).
