Pre-Press Proofing Monitors Deal For Atech
Atech has formed a new partnership with Quato Technology to become the exclusive UK distributor of the Intelliproof range of precision proofing monitors.
The UV coaters are said to provide automated protective lamination on sheet, board or roll-fed substrates up to 76.2mm thick and widths of 1,524mm and 2,032mm, respectively.
Each machine includes an air knife to eliminate roller wraps and have large diameter coating rollers to avoid roll deflection, and adjustable coat weight between 7micron and 20micron and a manually adjustable nip with calibrated display for repeatable accuracy.
Both the Aquaseal 60 and 80 UV Pro are claimed to operate at variable speeds of up to 32 metres per minute with the liquid laminate instantly cured when passing under the in-built UV dryer.
Being UV cured also means there is no necessity to clean down on a daily basis the three switchable 19-litre lacquer reservoirs, said Atech.
Aquaseal UV laminators use curable liquids that are said to provide instant curing and provide immediate protection to a variety of materials and substrates, such as inkjet, photographic, dye-sub and vehicle graphics.
The liquid has been formulated to meet the demands in the outdoor and vehicles graphics market and is resistant to UV-exposure, moisture, petrol, detergent, alcohol, salt-spray, grease, scrubbing and abrasions, added Atech.
