ARMEX Soda blasting > FlexoMate systems

The FlexoMate anilox roll cleaning systems are based on the dry use of the ARMEX soda blasting media . Delivered under pressure using compressed air this crystal physically removes the ink from the substrate. Because of its softness and friability it disintegrates on impact without damage to or distortion of the roll and its bearings.

The rolls are cleaned to their original state, resulting in the same printing results as you would obtain with new ones. Not only engraved ceramic rolls but also chrome rolls, glue rolls, squeeze rolls, and guide rolls can be cleaned. They all become as new in less time and against less costs than ever before. This without the use of chemicals and water. The only waste left is the used cleaning media ARMEX which is completely environmentally safe and therefore easy to dispose.
All FlexoMate systems work fully automatic. Cleaning is done in very little time without almost any man hours spent.

The systems can be built in various executions depending on roll length, capacity and in-press or off-press application.
Besides the roll cleaning cabinet a ‘GloveBox’ is available to manually clean all other parts of the press.
