Are you talking about mechanical ghosting or gas ghosting? Mechanical ghosting showS up right away ,gas ghosting develops slowly

Topping up your oil levels should solve this temporarily , until you can schedule a, mechanic to inspect your 700

All good solutions ,also proper anilox roller speed is important if you have a variable speed drive roller , experiment with different speeds

because the the plate needs to recover from consumption on each revolution or impression to keep densities consistent anilox rollers are typically metal or ceramics so they cant go directly on to the pate cylinder if you were running a rubber or cyrel plate than there would be no need for the...

if by anilox roller you mean a roller that has been engraved by laser to various cell sizes than,yes, by virture of design the anilox is 100 % uniform the bridge roller or registter forme smooths out voids that develop over time due to wear and tear on components other than the anilox I m...

very simple in perfecting mode you need gripper margins on either end of the sheet iin straight printing you can almost have you image run off the tail edge of the sheet in perfecting you must allow for the grippere when you convert the sheet

you dont have to change the settings between plate and blanket the reason being , when the unit goes on impression its the blanket cylinder that moves into contact (eccentrically) with plate and impression cyinders. the setting between plate and blanket should never be adjusted once you have...

have you tried rubber based inks?

why not just take water out of the equation and go waterless? develop a better water less process than what is currently available water is by far the worst culprit in density consistency and it takes a pressman who understands ink water balance to produce the best results

Iin terms of overall production and quality ,UV is the way to go on plastics yes , conventional vynl inks will work but at a much slower pace adhesion and scratch resistance may ultimately be not as good as UV turnaround time will also be slower however,Mr Better Way if you so confident about...

all good replies to this issue i have only one thing to add to this have you checked you metering roller? does the roller have the correct duro? is it out of round? does it have low spots? try swapping the meter with another unit and see if the problem moves with it

agree imagine changing a roller that big!

wow heidelberg is a good product but not the "top" there is no such press, especially the much over rated heidis also your comment is a contradiction in terms "heidis engineers are all theory but no experience" yet according to you its the best in the world! a good pressman can make any press...

great theory but in the real world of print production this not always work except maybe when your blankets are new (and bearers) these days we print on more recyled substrates than before and keeping this in mind with the inevitable bearer compaction and blanket sinkage you wil have a poor...

hughy sucks ! just kidding ! this guy knows what he is talking about torsion bars or cam followers additionally , worn out end plates on torsion bars can cause doubling simple solution but not simpilistic mr "senefelder"
