Anders Kongstad, technical director, Flexo Wash, with the new laser cleaner for anilox rollers
A new Laser Washer has been launched by Flexo Wash. The FW 2000 model, which was launched at Labelexpo in Chicago, provides an alternative to Flexo Wash’s liquid cleaning system for anilox rollers.
St Ryan Potter, vice president of sales for Flexo Wash, USA, stated, ‘Our customers are excited to finally have an open and truly comparative conversation about the pros and cons of each technology. Flexo Wash provides the ‘flexobility’ for converters and printers to choose which system works best for them.’
The new method is designed to ensure absolute cleanliness for maximum performance, to boost productivity and quality, and reduce labour and material costs.
‘The FW 2000 and FW 3000 Laser Anilox Cleaners utilise the latest in laser technology. The FW 2000 will clean an anilox roller or sleeve with a maximum cleaning length of 1700mm,’ explained Anders Kongstad, technical director for Flexo Wash in Denmark. ‘The FW 2000 can also be configured to clean multiple narrow web anilox rollers or sleeves in a single cycle.’
