The installation concerned was for printing onto air filter material being manufactured on a high-speed continuous web. The customer wanted to print their name and company logo, as well as product information.
The system was specified, designed, manufactured, shipped and successfully installed within a six-week period.
The material is used in large spray painting booths with strong UV illumination. A special ink formulation was provided, with high UV fade resistance to maintain the visibility of the printing throughout the product life.
