Web Screen Printing Goes Green with UV-LED from Kammann


(July 2011) posted on Wed Jul 20, 2011

The K61 ECO UV-LED is the newest addition to Kammann’s long established line of roll-to-roll web screen printing equipment. The flat screen machine has been designed with a complete servo motor drive system. The ECO has retained the main principles of modular flexibility with screen printing, die cutting options, laminating, stamping, and in-line finishing.
The major technology breakthrough for this machine is UV-LED. LED benefits are:
• Energy savings – LED utilizes on average 8 watts per lamp for web systems
• Low heat emissions
• Low energy consumption
• Compact
• Elimination of noise pollution from exhaust blowers
• High efficiency lamp life – over 10,000 hours of manufacturing use
The enhanced digital web and tension control features allows the machine the ability to print color-to-color registration in the range of ±50 µm based on material thickness and ink viscosities.
K61 ECO has been proven to screen print at speeds that exceed industry expectations; allowing for maximum throughput in the smallest footprint. The capability of short changeover times and inexpensive tooling costs makes the K61 series a very efficient and versatile screen-printing machine with almost unlimited printing possibilities that guarantees for fast return on investment.
