Printing
High performance coating solutions for high speed
printing.
There are two main areas where Impreglon UK can
improve the performance of printing equipment - ink non-stick and adhesive
non-stick.
Ink non-stick coatings are a great time and money saver. By
using Impreglon UK coatings on ink trays, ink pans, return trays and drip trays,
the printing industry can ensure that when the time comes to clean the tray or
pan down, the cleaning time is significantly reduced compared with uncoated
equipment. Couple that with being able to eliminate quality issues arising out
of cross colour contamination and the reason for the success of this range of
coatings becomes apparent.
Impreglon UK coatings can also be found on the
guide rolls or path rolls that take the printed web from one colour station to
the next. If the ink is still wet when the open side of the web runs across the
guide roll, the ink will off set back onto the web. Impreglon UK coatings can
prevent such off set. We even have low temperature coating systems that can be
used on sensitive grades of Aluminium.
For those printing self adhesive
labels, there is a coating that can be used to prevent the adhesive on the label
from sticking where it's not wanted. This coating is found on rotary die
cutters, waste matrix take off rolls and waste removal ducting. For the waste
matrix take off rolls, the coating's inbuilt traction properties are a distinct
advantage.
Within the book binding industry, coatings for glue non-stick
or easy clean can be found on equipment such as glue tanks, glue applicator
wheels and associated scrappers.
Impreglon UK coatings can also be found
at date code printing stations where the objective is to prevent ink build up on
dead plates.
