G2 Contact Angle Detection Tool
Improper contact angles can result in a lot of problems for Flexo and Roto presses. The G2® Contact Angle Detection Tool is designed as a portable device to measure the contact angles on used doctor blades in order to ensure proper settings.
STANDARD FEATURES
- The G2 Contact Angle Gauge System is an excellent and easy-to-use device using angle refraction in order to determine optimal blade settings
- Constructed of sturdy stainless steel and aluminum, the device features a magnetic stage that rotates in an arc track, along with a microscope and LED light rod
- The G2 Contact Angle Gauge System is especially great for training new press operators
- A great way to remember the settings when you are running at optimal performance or determine solutions for solving improper blade angles
- The best way to correct blade settings in order to save money in excessive blade wear, down press times, wasted ink and substrates damaged rolls/ cylinders
RECOMMENDED ANGLES
FLEXOGRAPHIC: 25 to 35 degrees (metering)
GRAVURE: 55 to 65 degrees
