A focus on high-speed InkJet-Printing
adphos supported the event with its 25 years’ experience in thermal processing. Through the investigation and delivery of thousands of drying/curing projects, adphos has gained a great depth of knowledge and application expertise – ranging from drying aqueous ink onto thin films to drying inks onto heat reactive substrates and a drying on a big variety of paper-stocks. aNIR®’s speciality is primary energy absorption on the wet printed pattern and not on the substrate itself.


Benefits of aNIR®
adphos aNIR® enables instantaneous start/stop drying-technology and significant energy savings packed into extremely compact designs. The aNIR® drying, which essentially addresses only the printed areas and thus causes little heating of the substrates, dries the wet ink very efficiently in a fraction of a second resulting in a completely flat paper without dehydration or damage of the natural base substrate.
