| Q: |
Why should I consider an Automatic Plate Washing System when we’ve always had time to wash by hand?
|
| A: |
Automating the wash process helps to ensure a uniform quality
of wash every time. Additionally, pressroom health and safety standards will be enhanced by
eliminating hand washing which could lead to repetitive strain injuries and accidents as
well as removing the handling of detergents during the wash process.

| Oxy-Dry Interstation IR & UV Drying Systems
|
|
| Q: |
Why should I
consider an Oxy-Dry Interstation IR and/or UV Drying System for my press?
|
| A: |
IR Drying and/or UV Curing are proven ways to reduce drying
times allowing for increased press speeds. Today’s faster flexo presses require higher
press speeds to maintain their print quality. The Oxy-Dry System will dry multicolor
work at press speeds. The Oxy-Dry System is a superior choice for flexo presses because
it offers a unique approach utilizing IR Short Wave and IR Medium Wave technology
supported by air manipulation technology to maximize its drying power.

| Q: |
What features distinguish the Oxy-Dry System from other drying systems on the market?
|
| A: |
An integrated IR Air Knife and Evacuator panel
is sized to fit tight space requirements yet, still offers high-powered
drying impact. A unique combination Board and Temperature Detection System
will immediately shut down the Oxy-Dry Drying System in the event of a
stray board thus protecting your press and eliminating valuable downtime.

| Q: |
Is it true that
using IR and UV drying technology will help to make colors pop?
|
| A: |
Yes. Colors will brighten when exposed to both
spectrums. This dual exposure will evenly trap light and dark colors on
top of the sheet before it absorbs into the board and loses its luster.
