Overview
RK Drawdown Plate model KHC.21 is a large 24 x 34 cm Drawdown Plate consisting of clips, rigid polyester sheets and foam/rubber upholstery. Repeatability and proofing results are better on an RK imprint bed than on a rigid substrate directly. The flexible foam/rubber pad absorbs operating pressure and increases proofing mass.
Features
1. Composed of clips, rigid polyester board and foam/rubber cushions, the structure is simple and practical.
2. Soft foam/rubber liner can absorb operating pressure, improve proofing Repeatability and effect.
3. Suitable for a variety of substrates, including paper, cardboard, plastic film, metal foil, etc.
Principle
The RK Drawdown Plate absorbs the operator's applied proofing pressure through a flexible foam/rubber pad, providing a more uniform pressure distribution during the proofing process for better Repeatability and proofing results. To operate, the substrate is fixed to the imprint bed and Spreader is performed at constant speed and pressure using a Spreader stick.
Applications
For research, testing and quality control in the detection of inks, coatings, viscose and various emulsions
Steps
1. First prepare the appropriate size of the substrate for proofing.
2. Place the substrate on the embossing bed and clip it.
3. Select the appropriate type of Spreader stick and place it on the embossing bed near the clip.
4. Coating or Gloss oil for proofing is placed near the clip, about 1cm below the Spreader stick.
5. Hold both ends of the Spreader stick with both hands and pull the bar in the direction of the operator at constant speed and pressure. Please be careful not to turn the bar during operation.
6. After proofing, wash the Spreader stick in a suitable solvent and dry it with a cloth. Please note that the bar should be kept in a drying state at all times.
Notice
• Do not turn the bar during operation.
• After proofing, wash the Spreader stick in a suitable solvent and dry it with a cloth.
• The bar should always be kept in a drying state.
