The technical edge – SENOFLEX inks and coatings from WEILBURGER Graphics
Thursday 14. June 2012 - For some time now it is impossible to imagine the packaging industry without the corrugated direct printing. The printing systems become steadier and the achievable qualities of the printing results rise. For quite some time WEILBURGER Graphics GmbH also offers under the product class SENOFLEX a co-ordinated ink and coating series for this market. I
t resulted from the specific requirements for special formulations for these products from the customers
Ink quality through: Ideal processing times
best print technical performance of the ink at the plate or rather at the anilox roller while at the same time low cleaning effort
Optimized discharging properties for an excellent ink transfer to the plate/printing substrate while at the same time reduced adding of the anilox roller in regard to the cleaning intervals.
High concentrated ink series low dot gain, constant vignetted screen tints, good drying characteristics for an excellent printing
And coating quality through: Optimized penetration performance
fast drying in combination with our ink system
Blocking resistance and rub resistance best possible wet blocking resistance while at the same time high rub resistance for further processing
Static and dynamic friction excellent static and dynamic friction in regard to transport properties
The inks and coatings of the SENOFLEX product class from the company WEILBURGER Graphics have been specifically designed in regard to these quality criterions and are able to achieve excellent results also at high printing speed. Furthermore the optimized drying characteristics and the reduced cleaning effort and cleaning agents contribute to an increase of economic and energy efficiency.
SENOFLEX inks are actually available as euroscale inks as well as a mixing system with thirteen basic inks. The special inks which come out of it cover the complete spot ink segment; very brilliant gold and silver inks complete the product program. For finishing matt and glossy SENOFLEX coatings as well a wide range of effect coatings are offered from the extensive product line.
Arno Dürr – Sales Manager of WEILBURGER Graphics GmbH – comments on the SENOFLEX product class: “From our point of view flexo printing will become more and more important in the future, especially in the premium field of packaging. By the interaction of high quality and co-ordinated components and processes, qualities can be achieved, which were considered impossible a few years ago.” Arno Dürr further: “Not least with the top-class co-operation with selected machine manufacturers, suppliers and manufacturing companies we could develop with our SENOFLEX product class an extraordinary high- quality range of inks and coatings for the flexo printing and we are very glad that the market positively accepted it.”
Just like every year WEILBURER Graphics will also offer in this year a SENOFLEX workshop. Interested parties can already register from now on for this event.
