Apex - Oil Filter Printers
Near silkscreen quality at offset print speeds! The range of Apex Oil and Fuel Filter printers has been especially developed in consultation with customers from around the world to provide the highest quality print capabilities, combined with speed and ease of operation to handle short run production efficiently and economically.
There are different types of printer available to suit most types of filter, from the very smallest, right up to lengths of 12" (304mm), and diameters up to 6" (152mm).
Apex have solutions offering a variety of production speeds and print methods to suit most applications. Machines typically operate in speed ranges up to 200 parts per minute.
Developments in UV ink technology, combined with the new Flexapex printing system developed by Apex, now enable printing through a modified offset process to give near silkscreen density and quality at offset printing speeds. This new system provides potential for substantial cost savings, compared to silkscreen or gravure (pad printing) systems, through lower origination costs, faster changeovers, and higher running speeds. Further benefits include the use of inks that do not contain volatile solvents of the type used in air dry inks in gravure and pad printing processes - an increasingly important consideration in in the light of current trends in ecological and Health & Safety legislation - and the capability to print multi-color images in perfect register.
