PRINT YOUR CYLINDERS CLEAN!
The anilox roll is a critical and often overlooked element in flexo print quality.
As anilox rolls get dirty or worn, print density goes down. This leads to more press down-time and material waste, two of the largest cost components in a typical printing plant.
Spring has developed a full offering to help printers, particularly corrugated board converters, keep their anilox rolls in optimum conditions and their printing presses running at full capacity.
Flexi-Lox is an innovative technology that allows printers to clean their anilox rolls without removing them from the press- and while they are printing on other stations.
The Flexi-Lox anilox cleaning systems consists of a Micro Fiber cleaning blanket integrated on a dimensionally stable compressible foam. Flexi-Lox blankets mount like traditional plates using a combination of locking strip and tension bands.
The Flexi-Lox blanket works in combination with the Powerwash cleaning solutions to “print cylinders clean”.
- Repeatable print quality
- Reduced press set-up
- Higher ink densities; lower ink consumption
In addition to the Flexi-Lox system, Spring has a series of cleaning solutions for:
- Ultrasonic cleaning units
- Parts washers
- Manual cleaning with SoftClean
- In-line photopolymer plate cleaning
