Paste Ink Proofer – High-Viscosity Ink Testing Device
The Paste Ink Proofer provides precise print simulation for high-viscosity inks.
The Paste Ink Proofer is a professional proofing device developed to test the printing performance of high-viscosity inks in a laboratory environment. It enables the simulation of dense inks used in offset and gravure printing applications under conditions close to real production.
High-viscosity inks, known as paste inks, cannot be properly applied using standard proofing systems, which makes specially designed equipment necessary for such applications. The Paste Ink Proofer ensures controlled ink transfer and uniform distribution, delivering reliable and repeatable results.
This system allows comparative testing of different ink formulations and provides an effective solution for color verification, quality control, and R&D studies. By performing these tests before production, the risk of faulty output is reduced and process optimization is achieved.
Unlike other proofing systems, the Paste Ink Proofer is specifically optimized for high-viscosity inks, ensuring more accurate and realistic results.
- Accurate print proofs in a single operation
- No need for ink weighing or volume measurement, unlike conventional proofers
- Simultaneous comparison of two inks on the same substrate
- Full inking/printing/cleaning cycle completed in just 2–3 minutes
- Multiple proof samples can be produced effortlessly on various substrates
- Significantly reduces press setup time and enhances workflow efficiency
