Product Overview

The KR‑435 desktop multi‑color ink proofing instrument is lab‑scale pre‑press test equipment for gravure and flexographic printing workflows. It simulates real‑production press conditions to generate standardized color‑bar samples, enabling visual assessment of ink hue, tinting performance, print smoothness and substrate‑ink compatibility.

This unit shortens pre‑production color‑matching cycles and reduces waste of paper, ink and consumables caused by repeated trial‑runs on large production presses. Equipped with imported rubber roller assembly and Delta frequency‑conversion drive system, it supports quick generation of four‑parallel color strips. Widely adopted by printing & packaging factories, ink manufacturers, R&D labs and educational institutions for ink formula screening, incoming‑material inspection and spot‑color verification.

Core Product Competitive Advantages

  1. Stable Automatic Ink‑Mixing System Motor‑driven automatic ink homogenisation with configurable mixing duration. Operators can switch freely between manual and auto ink‑spreading modes to accommodate diverse ink viscosity properties and different operating habits.
  2. High‑Precision Adjustable Printing Pressure Printing pressure can be finely tuned within ‑1 mm ~ +1 mm range. Users adjust compression clearance according to substrate thickness (paper, film etc.), ensuring consistent ink transfer effect for thin or thick printing stock.
  3. Dual‑Range Frequency‑Conversion Speed Regulation ‑ Ink‑distribution speed: 0‑1000 rpm continuous variable; three fixed‑gear presets (400 / 550 / 700 rpm) for rapid recall. ‑ Proofing color‑bar output speed: 0‑30 rpm variable, with 10 /15 /20 rpm fixed‑speed options. Speed parameters can be matched against ink viscosity and substrate soft‑hard characteristics.
  4. Premium Imported Roller Hardware Adopts Germany‑made VU70 rubber impression roller, identical material to rollers used on industrial production presses. Standard rubber roller and UV‑resistant roller are interchangeable, supporting testing for conventional solvent‑based ink as well as UV curing ink. Taiwan Delta inverter delivers steady rotation with minimal speed fluctuation.
  5. User‑Friendly Cabinet‑Type Bench‑Top Layout Touch‑screen human‑machine interface for parameter setting. Emergency‑stop button is fitted for safe intervention. Main body is built with stainless‑steel panels, resistant to solvent splashes and easy to wipe clean after proofing cycles. Compact footprint fits ordinary laboratory workbenches.

Standard Complete Test Operating Workflow

  1. Pre‑Test Preparation Place unit on level workbench. Check roller surface cleanliness. Load target gravure / flexo ink, install corresponding roller according to ink type (ordinary or UV ink). Power‑on and access touch‑screen control menu.
  2. Parameter Configuration Set ink‑mixing duration, ink‑distribution speed, proofing output speed and printing pressure based on ink viscosity and substrate thickness. Mount printing substrate onto the sample holder.
  3. Automatic Ink Homogenisation Start auto‑mixing procedure to achieve uniform ink dispersion. After mixing completes, the machine proceeds to ink transfer and color‑bar proofing process.
  4. Color‑Bar Sample Generation The roller assembly runs at preset speed to transfer ink onto substrate, outputting four‑channel standard color strips. Once proofing finishes, lift the roller assembly and retrieve printed sample sheet.
  5. Post‑Test Cleaning & Shutdown Remove residual ink from rollers and metal surfaces with suitable cleaning solvent. Wipe and dry all roller components. Cut off main power after completing batch proofing tasks.
