Ink Proofer Manual Color Proofing Roller 70mm Width with Precise Pressure Control for Flexo Printing

Manual Metal Anilox and Rubber Roller Proofer Key benefits Precise pressure control: a single cursor knob at the bottom adjusts the relative position of the anilox roller and the rubber roller for fine control of contact and pressure. Easy positioning: a spring mechanism inside the handle provides smooth, stable positioning of the rollers for consistent proofing. Authentic proofing results: metal anilox and rubber roller construction delivers reliable ink transfer and accurate simulation of printing conditions. Simple and intuitive operation: straightforward setup and adjustments reduce trial and error during color and coating tests. Features and specifications Rollers: metal anilox roller and rubber roller. Surface width: 70 mm. Adjustment: single cursor knob located at the bottom for relative position control between rollers. Handle mechanism: internal spring allows easy roller engagement and controlled pressure. Design: compact, userfriendly proofing unit suitable for manual operation. How to select anilox line count and what it means More lines per unit area: produces a smaller wet film thickness on the substrate. Fewer lines per unit area: produces a larger wet film thickness. If the substrate or coating absorbs a large amount of ink, choose an anilox with a smaller number of rows to increase wet film thickness. If the substrate or coating absorbs little ink, choose an anilox with a larger number of rows to reduce wet film thickness. Correct selection helps optimize ink transfer and consistent coating results. Typical applications Color matching and press checks for packaging and labels: test ink formulations and adjust densities before production runs. Ink formulation and R and D: evaluate different coatings, pigments, and additives with controlled wet film thickness. Smallrun or prototype printing: simulate press conditions for sample runs, quality checks, and process setup. Performance and compatibility Designed for manual proofing workflows where accurate simulation of press ink transfer is required. Works with standard proofing inks and coatings compatible with metal anilox and rubber roller systems. The 70 mm surface width accommodates narrow web and sample substrates commonly used in packaging, label, and R and D labs. Usage tips Start with a middlerange line count to establish a baseline, then adjust to higher or lower line counts based on observed ink absorption and desired wet film. Use the bottom cursor knob to incrementally change roller contact until the desired print density and uniformity are achieved. Keep rollers clean and of dried ink to maintain consistent performance and repeatability. This manual proofer provides controlled, repeatable proofing with straightforward adjustment and a durable metal and rubber roller design for consistent, practical results in color, coating, and R and D workflows.
