How to clean anilox rollers

Ultrasonic roller cleaning

• It does not require disassembling the bearings since they are not submerged in the tank.
• It is very effective for deep cleaning, especially in very small cells.
• It does not damage the surface of the roller since it is in continuous rotation to prevent the ultrasound from continuously impacting the same point on the surface.
• The presence of an operator is not necessary while cleaning is carried out since it is automatic.
• Cleaning is done in just a few minutes.

5 advantages of cleaning anilox rollers with our ultrasonic cleaning machines

1. Deep and uniform cleaning: The DCM Ultrasonic UCM 500RL uses high-frequency ultrasound technology to completely remove ink, residue and contaminants embedded in the cells of the anilox rollers without damaging their surface.
2. Maintaining transfer capacity: By effectively removing accumulated dirt, the original cell volumes of the anilox roll are restored, ensuring high-quality printing and reducing the need for reruns in the process.
3. Safe and abrasion-free process: Unlike other aggressive mechanical or chemical cleaning methods, the UCM 500RL cleans anilox rolls non-invasively, preventing premature wear and extending their lifespan.
4. Efficiency and speed: The machine's automated system allows for complete cleaning in reduced times, optimizing workflow and avoiding long periods of production downtime.
5. Reducing operating costs: By improving the performance of anilox rolls and minimizing the need for frequent replacements, the UCM 500RL contributes to reducing maintenance costs and optimizes the use of inks and consumables.
