Sustainable cleaning solutions save time and money

Press release from the issuing company

RENZMANN's presentation at the drupa trade show focuses on powerful cleaning and distillation systems that combine eco-friendliness and efficiency. 

Monzingen - Shorter print runs and frequent job changes mean that print shops have to wash greater quantities of press components and accessories. That is why many of them are looking for more efficient ways of cleaning ink-carrying press parts. At stand D39 in Hall 16, RENZMANN, a manufacturer of washing machines and distillation units for the graphic arts industry, focuses on optimizing industrial washing processes. RENZMANN presents solutions for a "clean" printing process as well as systems that ensure time- and cost-saving cleaning of press parts.

Reuse printing plates immediately – with the FlexPlateCleaner 

The FlexPlateCleaner cleans and dries flexographic printing plates using a fast and highly automated process. The system comes with a patented transport system that allows the speed of the plates to be regulated individually via a manual potentiometer. The contact pressure of the washing rollers is automatically adjusted to the thickness of the plate. After cleaning, the plates are immediately ready for reuse. 

A neat solution – the washing machine 3400-e

The next generation of the washing machine model 3400 meets the highest efficiency and safety requirements, for a very competitive price. The explosion-proof and ATEX-compliant machine cleans press parts, ink pans, doctor blades and buckets using spray pipes that oscillate around their longitudinal axis. Short spraying distances and a powerful pump ensure optimal cleaning results. The washing machine 3400-e makes do without any accessories and wins additional points for its robust and maintenance-friendly design. 

Active environmental protection – the ROTOmaX-e distillation unit

Climate and immission protection regulations make specific demands on cleaning processes, especially if they involve solvents. The ROTOmaX-e 20 distillation unit has a distillation output  between 60 and 120 liters of solvent per hour and achieves an excellent recovery rate of approximately 94 percent. By minimizing the quantity of highly viscous, disposable residue, the unit cuts both disposal and solvent costs and actively contributes to protecting our environment.
