At Labelexpo India 2022, Acme Rolltech launched its new engraving technology called Advanced Channel Engraving (ACE ). “Under this technology, we are showcasing four new structures – ACE Ecell, ACE Xcell, ACE Hex and ACE Xtm. These are special structures that help in providing HD printing, improved ink release, and extended life span. They are also able to address certain issues that are faced by flexo printers – pinholing, mottling etc. specifically with UV inks by reducing those significantly. These structures also help in increasing ink efficiency by delivering better depth with low ink consumption and are much easier to clean,” said Sandeep Sharma, director, Acme Rolltech.
At the event, the company also promoted its ATAC or Acme Tactile high-density anilox rolls, which offer the highest release of lacquers and varnishes available in flexo printing. Launched just a year ago, this is already a huge success in the market for customers looking for raised effects like screen. Another product promoted by the company at the event is Acme high-density white or AHDW for high-density white and AHDC or Acme high-density color. AHDW or acme high-density white is a special roll for high opacity white ink printing in a single pass for achieving high deposition and smooth flow of white.
In addition, the company also promoted its Refurbishment Programme at the event. “Under the Refurbishment Programme, we refurbish the old rolls of our customers. It is a sustainability initiative by us wherein we ensure that old rolls lying at the dump yard of our customers are not wasted. The refurbished rolls are as good as the new ones and offer the same quality and efficiency. This has turned out to be a very successful program for our customers and us alike,” said Sharma.
A pioneer in ceramic anilox rolls and sleeves, Acme Rolltech manufactures ceramic rolls and sleeves, refurbish old rolls, and offers cleaning solutions and roll auditing services. The company caters to various markets and industries such as narrow web flexo, offset coating, corrugation, CI flexo, and specialty coating applications.
