Why it's worth investing in a tailored end seal solution for optimum performance
Chamber doctor blade end seals: Small components with a big impact
The very nature of end seals is that though they might not look spectacular, they play a crucial part for an cost-effective and smooth function of the printing deck or coating unit. That small end seal unites a lot of know how about how the respective printing application works, about materials science and about suitable production methods to make a high-performance seal.
Our ambition is to provide our OEM partners with a tailored end seal solution that offers the best performance for their individual machine setup. The target might be to provide durable end seals that allow to implement increased production speed without risking leakage in the printing or coating deck(s), in other cases the seal might need to withstand special chemicals or should be able to cope with varying pressure.
How we develop customized solutions with you
Accordingly, we design a suitable end seal concept in close dialogue with you, drawing upon a well-proven pool of high quality materials and extensive best practice knowledge from the industry. Our materials and production technology are subject to constant reviews to identify potential for improving performance. On our in-house test unit we make endurance tests and check new developments most thoroughly before they are released for further testing in your technical center or directly at a customer in the market.
We support a number of press manufacturers with our end seal technology
Likewise, special developments on a smaller scale are also possible: For instance, we have designed and produced a small batch of vulcanized rubber seals for an offline-coater, for which the machine manufacturer no longer offered the spare parts supply.
