Magnet Stops Doctor Blade Metal Falling In Ink
Harper Scientific, the printing and coating supplies division of global anilox supplier Harper Corporation has introduced the Promag magnet with bracket.
But with the advent of its new student programme, Harper is offering the educational tool to flexo students and interns, as well.
Margie Kluttz, president of Harper Corporation, said: "This new programme is a natural complement to Harper Corporation's other endeavors to further flexo education globally.
It provides students the opportunity to more easily absorb many of the technical aspects of flexography that they can't learn in a classroom, lab or back on the job." A Walkingseminar is strictly an educational tour at one of Harper Corporation's anilox and coating roll laser-engraving facilities.
It is combined with a customised technical session on anilox and flexo technology where visitors can obtain solutions to specific problems.
Attendees have the opportunity to see the latest laser-engraving technology and talk with specialists and other associates, said the company.
The mission of Harper's Walkingseminars is to help attendees develop a clearer understanding of what it takes to enhance the flexo process, said the company.
That, in turn, can provide more opportunities to improve their bottom lines and expand their market share.
There is no cost to participate.
Interested parties can schedule a Harper Walkingseminar at any Harper Advanced Surface Technology Centre manufacturing location.
All sessions are completely confidential.
The centres are in Charlotte, North Carolina and DePere, Wisconsin (USA), Herford (Germany) and Bangkok (Thailand).
One company or student group is scheduled at a time and Walkingseminar instructors each work with a maximum of six people.
Converters are welcome to bring other suppliers, such as representatives from manufacturers of inks, substrates and plates, for instance.
There may be as many as five groups from the same organisation involved simultaneously, for a maximum of 30 total participants, added Harper.
