Anilox Rolls
|
Stork Cellramic supports the printing industry in several ways, one of which is as a leading manufacturer of anilox rolls. An anilox roll is a hard cylinder, usually constructed of a steel or aluminum core coated by an industrial ceramic whose surface contains millions of very fine dimples, known as cells. The characteristics of an anilox roll determine the amount of ink that will be transferred to the flexographic plate—angle of the cells, cell volume, and line screen. A 60% angle ensures maximum density in a given space. Lower cell volume makes for less ink. Low line screen rolls are used where a heavy layer of ink is desired, such as in heavy block lettering. Higher line screens produce finer details and are used in four-color process work such as reproducing photographs. Stork Cellramic experts also provide anilox roll engravings designed to perform in challenging metering situations such as UV flexo, fine process and heavy adhesive applications for both narrow web and wide web sizes. HQP Fiber Optic Engraving Stork anilox rolls use HQP Fiber Optic Engraving, a laser engraving technology that permits the production of high line screen/high volume engravings with smooth, glass-like cell linings. These engravings are custom-tailored to perform in challenging metering situations, including UV flexo, fine process and heavy adhesive applications.Advantages
