Back-up Blades
Back-up blades are an essential component in the printing process, providing stability and support to the doctor blade. By reinforcing flatness, rigidity, and flexibility, they help the doctor blade adapt to press conditions, reducing deformation and wear while ensuring consistent ink removal. This results in improved print quality and extended blade lifespan. In addition to structural support, back-up blades apply uniform pressure along the doctor blade, optimizing ink metering and transfer efficiency. Their high hardness and straightness help maintain a stable printing process, minimizing defects and reducing maintenance needs.
