BioJet In-Press: Online and Offline Anilox Rollers and Sleeves Deep Cleaner
Clean anilox rolls and sleeves automatically, directly in the printing press, for a safer workflow, consistent cleaning results, and greater control over daily production.
100% Water-soluble
Cleaning agent.
In-line and offline cleaning
Inline as standard; offline via an optional trolley.
~35–45 Minutes
Average cleaning time per roller.
Maximum uptime. Lower operating costs.
Every minute of downtime counts. Manually cleaning and removing anilox rolls or sleeves takes time, requires extra steps, and puts additional pressure on operators.
The BioJet In-Press automatically cleans anilox rolls and sleeves right in the press. This ensures a safer workflow, consistent cleaning performance, and greater control over daily production.
Inline by default. Offline when necessary.
How the BioJet In-Press Works
Three steps to a clean anilox
*The process may vary depending on the degree of contamination.
1. Charging and Setup
Adjust the jet head and position the brush ring in the “kiss-touch” position on the anilox roller or sleeve.
2. Start the automatic cycle
Start the fully automated dry blasting cycle.
3. Finishing and Rinsing
Remove the jet head and rinse the roller with water.
The Sinner's Circle: Four Factors, One Outcome
The BioJet In-Press sprays environmentally friendly sodium bicarbonate (hardness 2.5 Mohs) at a pressure of 2.8–2.3 bar against the ceramic (hardness 6.5 Mohs) anilox roller to remove contaminants from the cells.
Time
Varies, depending on the degree of contamination.
Mechanical operation
At a pressure of 2.8–2.3 bar, sodium bicarbonate is sprayed against the ceramic grid roller.
Temperature
Ambient temperature.
Chemistry
Sodium Bicarbonate (hardness 2.5 Moh).
The BioJet In-Press uses only Armex™ Sodium Bicarbonate: a 100% water-soluble and environmentally friendly cleaning agent for removing water-based ink residues. No chemical additives are required for this process.
