Washing machines and circuits
Daily washing is one of the most important processes in flexographic companies, unfortunately also one of the most underrated.
The washing of the circuits at the end of the day, at each color change, prevents the color from getting stuck both in the pipes and in the trays, in the doctor blade chamber and even on the anilox.
A good daily wash allows the anilox to remain clean and not blocked.
Washing plates for printing cliché
The washing of the printing plates / cliché is essential
to ensure excellent print quality.
ECO AIR cleaning products have been tested on various types of clichés of different brands, in order to guarantee the good cleaning result without weighing on the life of the cliché.
Compared to non-specific or competing products, our cliché cleaners ensure that the plate is kept as new, preventing the cliché from drying out or being damaged.


Anilox ordinary cleaning
The purpose of a modern anilox roller is to correctly dose the ink needed on the matrix, it is self-evident that if the cells become clogged, it will not be possible to transfer the correct amount of ink required by the characterization.
Cells can be occluded for several reasons:
- Dry ink on the bottom of the cell
- Different material that settles
- Squeegee material deposited
During normal use, the rollers must be cleaned as soon as possible after a printing cycle, to remove the ink and coating residues.
The on-line cleaning cycle is the first solution to be put in place to inhibit the cell occlusion process.
When not possible in the car, when disassembling from the anilox it is good to immediately follow a cleaning with the specific detergent for the ink used.
When to wash Anilox
- End of work
- Machine downtime
- Anilox exchange
Depending on the type of material transported, the importance of timeliness of cleaning increases.
This table indicates the minutes in which it is necessary to intervene as soon as the use of anilox has ceased:

Extraordinary Anilox cleaning
IT IS REALLY IMPORTANT TO USE ONLY SPECIFIC CHEMICAL PRODUCTS, TO USE NON-SPECIFIC PRODUCTS COULD LEAD TO RUIN THE ANILOX OR TO DETERIORATE ITS STATE.
Extraordinary cleaning is performed by the operator and must be performed at least weekly, if you want to guarantee high print quality and a longer lasting life for anilox.
Cleaning takes place with the use of chemicals or technology.
