The new washing machine 3400-e will be presented at drupa 2016
Monzingen, Germany, 11. May 2016 – D.W. RENZMANN will present the new washing machine 3400-e for thorough cleaning of press parts, ink pans, doctor blades, miscellaneous parts and small containers at this year's drupa (hall 16, stand D39). With the e-series, the specialist manufacturer of washing machines and distillation units for the graphic arts industry has created a powerful yet inexpensive range of equipment.
Shorter print runs and frequent job changes mean that uncomplicated, fast and thorough cleaning of ink-carrying press parts is no longer just desirable, but a necessity. The ex-proof and ATEX-compliant washing machine 3400-e is designed to gently and reliably clean even larger quantities of press parts, ink pans, doctor blades or buckets. The next generation of the washing machine model 3400 makes do without additional accessories and meets the highest efficiency and safety requirements, despite costing less than its predecessor.
Convenient and safe
The closed washing chamber of the 3400-e is loaded through the machine's front door, which is equipped with a counterweight, and supplied with solvent from a separate solvent tank integrated into the machine. The filling level in the solvent tank is controlled automatically, and the automatic wash program is executed without manual intervention. To ensure the operators' safety, the machine can only be started when closed.
The parts to be washed are placed in pull-out stainless steel baskets and cleaned using a system of oscillating spray pipes. Short spraying distances and a powerful pump ensure optimal cleaning results. The working dimensions of the washing machine 3400-e start at a height of 500 millimeters and a length of 1500 millimeters.
Robust and low-maintenance
The 3400-e stands out by its robust and maintenance-friendly design. Large removable strainer baskets protect pumps, pipes and the spraying system from foreign matter and damage. A separate pneumatics control box means that pneumatic parts can be serviced without opening the control cabinet, protecting sensitive electrical components from exposure to damp compressed air. The solvent vapors created during washing are extracted quickly and completely by a powerful fan and pneumatic air intake and mixing flaps.
More solutions for a "clean" printing process
Visitors stopping by the RENZMANN stand will also get the chance to see other time- and cost-saving cleaning systems. They can get first-hand information about the capabilities of the new FlexPlateCleaner, which offers fast and gentle cleaning of flexographic printing plates, and take a look at a ROTOmaX-e 20 distillation unit that recovers high-quality solvents. In addition to providing information and answering questions, the staff will also see to the guests’ refreshment: RENZMANN has prepared a selection of delicious wines for visitors to enjoy in a modern "enoteca"-style setting.
