Sheetfed printing
Fast-running sheetfed presses (16.000-18.000 prints/hour) sometimes show the problem of “picture framing”. The Tower founts HSW 200-EU and HSW 300-EU are formulated in a way that they are less sensitive to this phenomenon.
Both founts are LOW SOLVENT and contain components (for better wet-out and emulsification) that ensure a better ink/water balance. These components also ensure better lubrication between plate and rubber blanket.
When using one of the mentioned founts, sheetfed presses are less sensitive for picture framing. Also, by being LOW SOLVENT, these founts ensure that the image on the plate remains visible much longer. This ensures more high quality prints at long runs.
