Graymills Superflo® filters are specially designed for flexographic and gravure ink systems, providing effective filtration to eliminate quality problems from contaminants that can also damage costly anilox rolls. Sizes for all printing applications. Filters are available standard (models HFLT/HFST/HFNT) or as surge suppressors (models DDPSFST/DDPSFNT).
Superflo® ink filters are designed to overcome the typical pressure drop and reduced ink flow due to clogging that occurs with ordinary filters. A permanent magnet (optional rare earth megaMAG available) suspended over the intake port traps ferrous particles which find their way into the ink and diffuses the flow outward into the filter screen flutes. Filtered material is trapped on the inside of the removable/reusable stainless steel filter cartridge. To clean, just remove the cartridge. All contaminants come out with it. Graymills Superflo® filters are self-draining – no wasted ink or messy leftovers.
Stainless steel filter cartridges are available in four different mesh screens recommended for the following applications:
Centrifugal pump with high performance volute, ergonomic design, and lighter weight, for use on mid and wide web flexo and gravure applications; especially those requiring more flow and/or higher print decks. Optional Quick Demountable motor. ATEX and CE compliant models available. Fits in 5, 10, 20, and 30 gallon tanks.
Standard Graymills ink tanks are round to promote circulation and eliminate “dead spots” in corners where heavier materials can drop out and stagnate, causing viscosity and color issues. Tanks are available in 10, 20, or 30 gallon capacity and feature a built-in sump for low pump-down to reduce ink waste. A rolled rim at the top of each tank provides reinforcement while eliminating sharp edges. Removable sparkles casters are included. Tanks are available in 14 gauge epoxy coated mild steel or stainless steel.
Lids have overlapping rims to reduce evaporation and add strength. A hinged portion allows easy refilling or manual viscosity readings. Holes are provided for return hose and/or bypass. Large handles make lifting easy. Available in nickel plated mild steel or stainless steel.
Optional reusable or disposable tank liners are another way to speed up changeovers.
Two peristaltic pump heads powered by a single motor allow the pump’s heads to be individually set to supply or return. This ability, coupled with the pump’s variable speed capability and ability to reverse direction, allows for several pumping configurations:
These pumps are available in PPS or PPL versions, have standard quick change heads, eight position adjustable head orientations, and remote mounting of controls with a 16’4” (5m) cord. Available with electric gear motor with electronic variable speed control; consult factory for explosion proof model. CE compliant models available. Optional hard coat anodized head with stainless steel rotors (PQL only).
The Rotoflex VLI is a premier inspection, slitting and rewind system with expanded capabilities for more advanced applications and high-speed production. It is ideal for film, film packaging and other tension-sensitive materials. The VLI can be configured to meet a full range of applications and substrates.
