Impression Setting Tips for Nu Tech Performance Enhancing Cylinders (PEC)


Setting Impression

  1. Adjust the anilox roll to the plate, making equal adjustments to both sides.
  2. After the plate is inked, adjust the plate to the substrate making equal adjustments to both sides to insure parallelism and cylinder “roundness”
  3. Once the printing plate inks the substrate, make small adjustments on impression until you are confident that the impression cylinder, plate cylinder and anilox roll are parallel to each other and slightly touching.
  4. Back off the anilox roll impression until it just starts to skip.
  5. On some press configurations, you may have to advance the plate cylinder to the impression roll to avoid excess anilox-to-plate impression.
  6. At this point, you may start to apply impression to the plate cylinder until you achieve the desired results.

Please Note: Former training may cause hesitation in applying impression to the plate cylinder. The product is designed to absorb the extra impression so do not be reluctant to squeeze the plate to the substrate.

     


Remember:
 The key advantage of a PEC is to provide a platform for a plate that will allow for over-impression and absorb vibration created in the nip. The vibration that is created is a combination of shafts turning, gears meshing, plates contacting anilox rolls, variation in cylinder TIR, and the shuddering created by the die cut station along the frame of the press.

The coating responds as a shock absorber and allows you to over-impress the plate to the substrate without the usual negative consequences.
