GTT 2.0 is suitable for a wider range of print requirements

 

Over the last year Apex International has upgraded its GTT anilox technology. GTT 2.0 is specifically engineered to reduce liquid turbulence resulting in a calm liquid surface.

Improved engraving ensures up to 50% reduction in cell wall surface area across the anilox, while decreasing the required channel depth by an average of 25%. Apex has also included additional volume options, making GTT 2.0 suitable for a wider range of print requirements. As a result GTT engravings exhibit much greater levels of print consistency and colour density compared to conventional anilox engravings.

‘Put simply, all cell based anilox rollers are made to order,’ said Nick Harvey, technical director at Apex. ‘On the one hand this means that virtually unlimited options of LPI/volume are available for conventional engravings. But the fact that almost every roller is a new engraving makes consistency extremely difficult resulting in colour consistency variations. However, with the GTT 2.0 engraving, true standardisation with improved flexibility becomes a reality.’
