Ink Unit Temperature Control System
As Offset printing machine has a large increase in speed with the technical advantage, temperature of rollers in printing machine trends to become higher. Roller temperature during the press’ star-up phase and in full operation has big difference and this could affect conditions of inks, resulting in poor printing quality.
Roller temperature controllers are designed to stabilize temperatures of oscillator rollers or ink fountain rollers of printing machines by circulating chilled water.
Not only does optimizing roller temperatures minimize the risk of deterioration of printing quality, but it brings the benefits of “stable printing quality”, “”shortened make-ready time”, “increased productivity” and so on.

POLARIS UV Series

Features
- Roller cooling and UV cooling are unified.
- Reduced installation space (Compared with the conventional machine, reduced about 60%)
- Power-saving effect by adoption of an inverter chiller (Compared with the conventional machine, reduced about 16%)
- The additional of UV cooling function is also made to serve a double purpose by one set of an external chilling unit.
- Reduction of an exterior unit installation space and piping is possible.
