Plastic Doctor Blades
Next generation plastic doctor blades designed with innovative materials offer a great solution in the world of ink metering. A mix of precision micro edge profiles and long and steady wear capabilities allows printers to achieve smooth ink metering in creating great image qualities. The improved structures of plastic blades allow for a fine contact area and no splintering or cracking.
