RYOBI-Matic Continuous Dampening System (Dampening Solution Cooling/Circulation System)

The RYOBI-matic continuous dampening system assures a uniform dampening supply onto the plate surface. Startup is quickly ready to enable an excellent response of dampening volume adjustment. As uniform and stable dampening water can be supplied quickly, thereby minimizing waste sheets during test printing and production printing. In addition, as this system is equipped with a dampening solution cooling/circulation system, printing can be performed without using alcohol.

Paper waste reduction by the "RYOBI-matic-D/RYOBI-matic-D Remote" Continuous Dampening System with Hickey Removing Function

This Dampening system substantially reduces hickeys on plate by adopting the new drive mechanism for the water form roller that creates a rotational speed difference between the water form roller and plate cylinder. This system virtually eliminates the need to interrupt press operation and remove hickeys from plates. So the paper wastes due to hickey problem can be greatly reduced.

UV printing employs ink that does not contain VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds), so there is no emission of such VOCs into the atmosphere. By also reducing the amount of spray powder, it is further possible to improve the operator's working environment. Moreover, with printing presses that include a coating unit, glossy prints using UV varnish coating and protection of the surface of the printed sheet can be accomplished without using polyvinyl chloride. At Ryobi, we have not only offered a UV curing unit for the delivery section but also an inter-deck UV curing unit that is installed between printing units, and we are proposing a variety of high value-added printing processes that take the environment into consideration.
