Innovative highlights of the exhibit：

ALE has designed a revolutionary laser technology that breaks the conventional link between laser beam shape and cell shape for the ceramic anilox market.

Product introduction:

Twin Track Laser Engraving Technology is targeted at the ceramic anilox and coatings & applicator sectors. This new state of the art laser technology sets asides the historic link between the shape of a laser beam and the shape of a cell. This new approach dynamically shapes the beam’s impact on the ceramic being engraved. Historically, with laser engraving, there has been a single-track approach of changing the size of a focused laser beam until it matched the size and volume of the required cell. The new Twin Track approach dynamically changes the laser power and laser beam position throughout a cell in order to change the cell shape or profile. This facilitates the engraving of flatter and wider bottomed cells, offering higher volume and improved ink release characteristics for the Anilox roll market. Advantages of this new technology include: Shallower flat-bottomed cells give higher volume for a given depth. Shallower flat-bottomed cells release more of the ink held in a cell. Shallower flatter bottomed cells are easier to clean. Shallower flatter bottomed cells are less prone to plug. This gives rise to longer print runs before cleaning. Anilox roller cleaning is more efficient, less time & effort spent. Due to the improvement in ink release, higher print density can be achieved at higher press speed.
