TRESUs ancillary program offers ink, time and cost savings to flexo printers at Labelexpo India 2016
Thursday 20. October 2016 - At Labelexpo India, Capital Graphic Supplies/TRESU Group (Stand H1) will showcase ancillary equipment, including supply systems and chamber doctor blades for controlling and automating ink coating supply in narrow and mid-web flexo printing presses.
Flexo ancillary solutions for automated, waste-free ink supply
TRESUs flexo ancillary solutions provide enclosed, automatically controlled ink circulation, thus reducing make-ready time and material waste, and assuring uniform quality. The F10 iCon ink supply system regulates ink flow, pressure and viscosity, ensuring a constant, accurate ink density on the printed substrate, without air contamination. This energy-efficient system also provides thorough automatic cleaning, achieving a complete ink change cycle in five to ten minutes.
TRESUs chamber doctor blades bring label and packaging printers many benefits, including reduced ink and substrate waste, uniform print quality, increased press speeds, shorter cleaning times and reduced emissions. Featuring the companys patented seal system, they prevent leakage and air contamination, thereby ensuring clean, blister-free print result with fast drying characteristics, better reflection and higher gloss values. When doctor blades need replacing, TRESUs patented clamping systems enable changeovers in less than two minutes.
Exhibited chambered doctor blade systems include the FlexiPrint IMW E-Line, for widths up to 1800mm (70.8in) and speeds up to 500m/min (1640ft/min); and the closed-cassette FlexiPrint Reservoir, which needs no pump and operates at press speeds of up to 300m/min (984ft/min).
TRESUs lightweight carbon fibre chamber doctor blades up to 6000mm (236in) width feature a top-coated ink-repellent surface, offering protection against detergents and adhesives with pH values of 9.0 and above, and easy cleaning. Curved inner surfaces maximize volume and facilitate controlled discharge.
