Seeco Korea will introduce at the K-Print 2020 the new ALCS1000SF system for cleaning anilox rollers and sleeve with lasertechnology.

Lasercleaning of anilox rollers is getting more and more popular in the world of printing industry . Laser cleaning  doesn’t use chemicals or water and doesn’t produce extra waste material. Lasercleaning only uses electricity, therefore it is the best method for the environment. The laser is a pulsed laser, the laserpulses are absorbed by the dirt( ink and polymers) the dirt gets heated and vapourizes.

The Ceramic will not damage because the laserbeam is only strong enough to vapourize the dirt . 

The ALCS1000SF lasercleaning system is very easy to operate, it is a fully automated system: autofocus for exact distance of the laserpistol to the diameter of the roller and the system automatically stops at the end of the roller. The dirt is absorb on filers of a extractionsystem.
