Product catalog summary

Work Guide Overview

Ink Storage and Preparation: Inks should be stored in a dry, ventilated, and dark environment at temperatures between 10 and 25°C. Containers must be sealed and stored upright to prevent contamination and exposure to sunlight. Once opened, containers should be closed tightly to avoid the formation of a hard film on the ink surface. A small amount of thinner can be added to prevent this.
Catalysts: Catalysts for two-component inks are hygroscopic and should be exposed to air only briefly to maintain their properties. Containers should be closed immediately after use.
Safety and Hygiene: Follow safety measures and hygiene practices as outlined in the technical data sheets accompanying the products.
Compatibility: Ensure all containers and tools used for ink preparation are clean and dry to avoid contamination. This includes spatulas, mixers, funnels, and ink trays.

Use of the Ceramic Ring

Treatment: Inkcups come with a protective cap for the ceramic ring, which should only be removed during machine assembly. Handle inkcups carefully to avoid damaging the ceramic ring. Before use, check the ring for cracks and ensure it fits correctly in the inkcup.
Cleaning: Use clean cloths and solvent to remove dry ink residues from the ceramic ring. Avoid using metal tools that could damage the ring.
Machine Use: Ensure the pressure between the ring and the plate is not excessive to prevent damage.

Specifications and Procedures
1. Machine Setup and Maintenance
- Adjust the internal spring of the presser pin to ensure proper pressure between the ring and the plate (cliché).
- Ensure the inkcup's position is correct to avoid mechanical misalignment, which can cause uneven wear and ink application issues.
- The base or support surface for the plate must be flat and free of irregularities. The plate should be securely fixed to prevent movement that could lead to inking problems or damage to the ceramic ring.
- Prevent dry ink accumulation on the ring edges during operation.

2. Cleaning Procedures
- Avoid leaving cleaning tools or inkcups in the cleaning tank to prevent damage.
- Use clean cloths and solvent to remove dry ink residues from the ceramic ring. Do not use metal tools.
- Clean up any ink spills immediately to prevent machine malfunction and printing defects.
- Regularly clean excess ink from the cliché and its support.

3. Ink Transfer and Mixing
- The quality of ink transfer depends on the thinners used, ink viscosity, and machine speed.
- Adjust ink viscosity according to job requirements using precision scales or graduated containers.
- For mono-component inks, mix with the corresponding thinner. For two-component inks, add the catalyst first, then the thinner.
- Prepare a small sample mixture to test print quality and adjust as needed.

4. Viscosity Control
- Check viscosity visually by observing the flow of ink from a stirring tool. Adjust with thinner or ink as needed to achieve a regular, even flow.
- Use the Viscomix tool for precise viscosity measurement, ensuring consistent ink density for repeatable results.

5. Safety and Cleaning
- Stop the machine and disconnect power before cleaning.
- Use appropriate solvents for different surfaces, such as denatured alcohol for painted surfaces and specific ink solvents for untreated surfaces.

Introduction
Pad printing inks require a high pigment percentage and a fast solvent mixture to ensure excellent and consistent print quality. This printing method is versatile, suitable for various surfaces and materials. COMEC ITALIA offers a range of inks tailored to different substrates, focusing on both technical and aesthetic outcomes, such as color tones, brightness, and image sharpness. Ink selection considers material type, surface characteristics, desired brightness, drying needs, and mechanical or chemical resistance.

Ink Preparation and Safety
Before using inks, review safety sheets and implement protective measures for operators and the environment. Ink preparation and equipment cleaning should occur in well-ventilated areas, with operators wearing appropriate protective gear. COMEC ITALIA provides a variety of mono and bicomponent inks, with detailed preparation instructions available on their website and catalog.

Cleaning Procedures
For cleaning ink from machines, stop the machine and disconnect power supplies. Absorb ink with cloths or sponges, and clean surfaces with appropriate solvents. Ensure proper ventilation when using solvents. Clichés and pads should be cleaned with specific solvents and dried thoroughly.

Machine Operation
During machine operation, promptly clean ink stains to prevent operational issues. Regularly check and clean the inkcup and clichés. At the end of the day, ensure the inkcup is correctly positioned, switch off the machine, and clean components with suitable solvents.

Recommendations for Ink Preparation
Single-component inks should be mixed with suitable thinners, considering ink density and working conditions. Two-component inks require a catalyst addition before dilution. Thorough mixing is essential.
