Pamarco and Am-Tech launch water-based ink dissolvers

Pamarco Global Graphics and Am-Tech have teamed up to create a special line of water-based ink dissolvers.

 

The Care range includes liquid, powder and gel formulations. The liquid Care HD-80 includes the properties of both a high pH and low pH ink dissolver, offering a corrosive product with the protection of a low pH formulation. Care HD-83 is a powder that can be mixed to create 500 gallons of solution, and is designed to minimize plate degradation. Care HD-88 is an alkali-based hand blended gelled anilox roll treatment, which penetrates to the bottom of cells, re-wets and pulls ink out.

 

Pamarco produces anilox rollers, while Am-Tech formulates systems for the safe care and cleaning of flexographic printing equipment. The companies said the cooperative chemistry relationship is in line with what flexographic printers are asking for; vendors to work together to enhance their understanding of customers’ production processes.

 

Pamarco and Am-Tech said their partnership will provide customers an expert and forthright approach to flexographic preventative maintenance.
