    Halm jet chemistry advice with poly plates

    I recently took over a Halm jet envelope press and would like advice on what water mix works best. I have some universal pink fount sol, IPA and tap water. The chiller is obviously not working either, so room temp (75 deg). Thanks

    PM 52 Blanket Washers

    Have a 2005 PM 52 4/c with auto washers on blankets and rolls. Lines seem to have a vacuum leak, not sure, not able to keep fluid from reservoir tank to solenoids that draw fluid up. Solenoids appear ok when tested. Lines appear ok. Fluid seems to back down lines after priming up. This is NOT a...

    haze on sheet edges

    cd102 cd102 Then we would look like the bad guys because we had "down time" trying to fix it so we could run the job right and maybe, just maybe get done in time to have a life! Sorry, got issues.

    haze on sheet edges

    edges scumming edges scumming I fought this problem for a week while doing some hired hand presswork, with the normal operator looking over my shoulder. When I got the chance, I striped all the rollers(with the ink still on them) and found a couple of old riders and a form in each unit that...

I ran a Ryobi 524HE for four years with those auto cleaners and was convinced by the vendor in the beginning that I was paying for...

    plate blinding

    Blind Man's Bluff Blind Man's Bluff Hmmm...quality in equals quality out. Using quality rubber can diminish these problems. Stripe rollers everyday, check squeeze often. Not trying to sell, just sayin'. Paper companies are not going to quit trying to make white whiter.

    what is the color sequence for process and two pms bumps

    6/c quandry 6/c quandry Ah...once again the pressboys are trying to bail out the over-eager designer who "just wants it to look like my screen, dude!" Seriously, I run the 185 down first. Depending on the run length, you might consider adding a bit of reducing oil. Then KCMY. Last, the #4...

    Komori damp chromes sensitive

    Sensitive Chromes Sensitive Chromes Definitely use a good chrome cleaner before starting up first thing or putting to bed. Might keep an eye on how much washup solution is getting onto the chromes or in the water, also.

    Ryobi question

    Static Static I haven't seen a suggestion to try another paper vendor, especially one who climate controls their warehouse. BTW, how long does the paper "condition" before opening it up? My best results come from conditioning a load for 24-48 hrs and then back-trimming the final size all the...
