Professional Anilox Cleaning Services by LTI
In the world of flexographic printing, anilox rolls are the unsung heroes that ensure consistent, high-quality output. These precision-engineered components transfer exact amounts of ink to printing plates, making them critical to your operation’s success. However, even the best anilox rolls can’t perform optimally when dried ink, coatings, and adhesives clog their microscopic
cells.
That’s where LTI’s professional anilox cleaning services come in. We use specialized equipment and proven techniques to thoroughly restore your rolls to like-new condition, helping you maintain print quality, extend equipment life, and minimize costly press downtime.
Why Professional Anilox Cleaning Matters
Over time, residue builds up in the engraved cells of your anilox rolls, reducing their ability to transfer ink properly. This contamination leads to inconsistent print quality, color variation, and increased waste. Regular professional cleaning is not just maintenance—it’s an investment in the longevity of your equipment and the consistency of your output.
We offer a comprehensive range of cleaning services designed to meet the diverse needs of modern printing operations. LTI has the expertise and technology to deliver exceptional results with our thorough on-site deep cleaning service. Ship your rolls to LTI’s state-of-the-art facility, where we provide comprehensive deep cleaning with fast turnaround times. This option lets you maintain your equipment without tying up internal resources or workspace.
LTI’s services are ideal for printers seeking thorough, professional cleaning while focusing their team on production. We perform a full inspection of the roll checking for any dings, scratches, or damaged cells. The journals, bearings, and drive gear are inspected. Next, we clean the roller until all the cell openings are clean and free of any built-up ink or grit. It is followed by an inspection with a cellspec microscope so we know the true billion cubic micron (BCM) measurement of the roll. Your anilox roller will now perform to its fullest ability.
LTI makes it easy: Just ship us the rolls, we perform the inspections and cleaning and ship them back!
