"DOCTOR BLADES" for Gravure Printing Equipment
"Doctor Blades" are used to meter and control the application of ink during the gravure printing process. Ensinger Acetals, Oriented Polyesters, and UHMW have successfully replaced metals, thereby providing a dramatic reduction in friction and extended wear life.
Ensinger materials have been selected by most leading "'doctor blade"manufacturers not only because of the high quality of our materials, but our ability to supply slit to width strip to the demanding camber specifications required.
