  5. The HEART of the PRINTING MACHINE IS The RUBBER ROLLER

  6. WHY PRINTING ROLLERS ARE CRITICAL TO PRINTING QUALITY Printing quality depends on: • the quality of paper • the quality of ink • the quality of rubber rollers

  7. TYPES OF ROLLERS FOR PRINTING • Letter Press • Offset Inking • Offset Damping • Lamination • Flexo • Gravure • Metal Print • Food Grade

  8. Offset Printing Rollers classified into Ink Distributor Rollers Ink Form Rollers Dampening Rollers Conventional Dampening Rollers Alcohol Dampening Rollers OFFSET PRINTING ROLLERS

  9. Sheet fed Offset rubber rollers • Damping • Conventional • Bareback with fount • Bareback alcohol Duct Forme • Inking – Forme - Distributor

  10. IMPORTANT PROPERTIES • Hardness - from 25 to 100 • Resilience- To spring back to its original shape after being subjected to pressure • Evenness- To maintain an even supply of ink • Chemical Resistance- Resistant to ink, fountain solutions, and cleaning agents. • Dimensional stability-Roller needs to remain in proper shape and size even after use

  11. RESILIENCE- critical for inking roller Resilience is elasticity or spring effect Higher resilience means lower pressure setting Lower pressure setting means • Less friction and wear out of plate • Less heat generated and longer life for roller

  12. Damping rollers required properties • Must be inert in aqueous media • Must have high affinity for water • - Low surface tension for rubber compound • Bareback damping forme roller perfectly even • Alcohol damping – high resistance to alcohol

  13. ROLLER CARE • 1. Have Spare set to avoid downtime of your expensive machines. • 2. Store the rollers in a cool place • 3. Keep Rollers in a storage rack or the packing box • 4. Handle Carefully- Avoid contact with sharp edges • 5. Ensure bearings are in good condition • 6. Cleaning the roller

  14. CLEANING THE ROLLER • Ink should not be allowed to dry on the roller • When machine stops clean roller with a two step wash. • Clean roller should have a dull velvet finish of a new roller.
