LeadEdge Flexo sales director Jon Moore said, ‘We are all ears to our customers’ needs and regularly make moves to optimise their production. We listen and work hard, as evidenced by the introduction of our latest innovation, 347 Plate Sealer. 

‘An innovative new formula forms a skin in under four minutes, which whilst being the fastest on the market, more importantly, allows our customers to make big gains and unlock additional production efficiencies.’

The company has just launched 347 Plate Sealer, a fast drying plate sealer that has been developed to improve and unlock additional production efficiencies.

Forming a skin in just three minutes and 47 seconds – hence the name – 347 Plate Sealer has been formulated in response to customer feedback for a faster drying solution. The product helps secure plates in place on the shim more rapidly, quickly creating a protective barrier to prevent debris and fluids disrupting the mounting process. It also expedites getting to hanging and stacking of print stereos.

Jon said, ‘Knowledge of the printing process is one of the pillars of our success and enables new found levels of overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) to be realised by our customers. Plate sealers are a part of that and is an area where we can help make genuine gains.

‘This new product is the solution for those frustrated by the slow drying times of plate sealers. The 347 Plate Sealer promises to help the flexo industry reach new levels of production efficiency, as even the smallest tweak can lead to huge gains!’
