| The Teknimek Engineering/Mickle Proofer System consists of separate Inker and Printer units, print disc and distribution roller for conventional inks, roller stand and print carrier. Their design is the result of many years experience in the production of proofing equipment for the ink industry and is used extensively by both ink manufacturers and printers, from small independent to large multinational companies.
The Inker is a three roller system, made up of a driving roller, an oscillating roller and a rubber distribution roller which transfers ink to the print disc. The print disc is then transferred to the Printer unit. The material to be printed, which may include paper, card or tin plate is clipped on to the substrate carrier and placed on the printing ledge of the Printer. The print disc is then lowered into position and a print produced. Individual Inkers or Printers can be purchased separately to accommodate different work loads. Moulded rubber Print disc and distribution roller specifically for UV inks available upon request. |
