Reference: GP100
Very high quality proofing using rotogravure inks. Proofs are produced instantly using the GP100. Ideal for R&D, colorimetric databases, quality control and making presentation samples.
Reference: K101 et K202
The K Control Coater or KCC provides fast, highly accurate and reproducible samples of liquid products. Ideal when repeatability is essential, for example for basic color creation or when a number of operators are involved. The coatings are applied by spiral bars.
Reference: K Hand Coater
The K Hand Coater or KHC is a simple and efficient way to apply liquid products like paint, ink, glue, etc. on many supports such as paper, cardboard, plastic films, sheets, metal or glass plates, wood ... Two or more coatings can be applied side to side in a single operation, making the system ideal for comparing products.
Reference: 1 ouverture
Angular film applicators with 1 flat edge, i.e. 1 predefined thickness. They are suitable for the application of many products on flat and relatively rigid substrates. They are made of high quality stainless steel and are not altered by acidic or alkaline products.
Reference: Applicateur Quadruplex double
Special applicator in stainless steel with 4 openings with double reservoir, each with 4 different values, allowing simultaneous application of 2 layers of coating with the same thickness.
Reference: Applicateur manuel K Lox
The Hand K Lox is a simple and economical steel cylinder applicator, mechanically engraved and chromed (anilox). It allows rapid flexographic proofs or varnish applications.
Reference: K303S Multicoater
This instrument makes it possible to make high quality proofs using flexo or rotogravure inks. The different heads are fully and easily interchangeable, providing rotogravure and flexo.
The VCML is designed to print, deposit and laminate all types of flexible media (paper, plastic films, metallized films, etc.) on a reel-to-reel basis. Its many application processes make it an ideal pilot machine for product development, quality control and small-scale low-volume production.
Reference: AB 4120/4220/4320/4400/4420
These automatic film applicators provide films of uniform thickness and appearance by applying the product under test at constant speed and pressure.
Reference: KPA
The K Paint Applicator KPA is widely used for applying paints, varnishes, etc., to produce accurate and reproducible samples.
Reference: Compact AB3652/-3653 / -3670
These automatic film applicators provide films of uniform thickness and appearance by applying the product under test at constant speed and pressure.
Reference: K Lox
The K Lox Automatic Proofer provides reproducible speed and pressure for high-precision flexo proofing. This machine is recommended when repeatability is essential, for example for basic color creation or when a number of operators are involved.
Reference: KPP
High quality proofs using flexo or rotogravure inks are produced in an instant with the K Printing Proofer. Featuring electronically engraved printing plates, it is an indispensable tool for anyone involved in the manufacture and use of inks.
Reference: Paste Ink Proofer
Sample press for fast and reproducible color preparation of litho, offset and letterpress inks (high viscosity viscous inks). This machine is unique in its use, an automatic ink dosing system eliminates the need to weigh or measure ink samples. Interchangeable engraved cylinders are used to produce prints of different densities.
Reference: K303S Multicoater
The Multicoater K303 provides fast, highly accurate and reproducible samples of liquid products. Ideal when repeatability is essential, for example for basic color creation or when a number of operators are involved. The coatings are applied by spiral bars.
Reference: Applicateurs Baker
Cylindrical film applicators with 4 application sides to apply paint films of 4 different predefined thicknesses.
Standardized test cards for determining the physical aspects and properties (covering power, opacity, penetration, gloss ...) of paints, varnishes, inks, emulsions, cosmetics, etc.
