Product Image

Description

The Anilox Roller is often referred to as the heart of the flexographic press. It is designed to deliver a precise and consistent amount of ink to the printing plate. ARC focuses on giving its customer a precise and durable roller. Every roller is fabricated or reconditioned in ARC’s facilities with a plasma coated surface and a choice of our newest advanced fiber-optic laser engraved processes.

Every laser engraved surface is inspected with 3D-QC Interferometry
