Dilution Management Systems

Dilution Management Systems are proving a cost-effective solution to support the flexographic print industry with consistency of print quality and high levels of productivity, which are vital in the premium print industry.

Why use Dilution Management Systems

Cleaning solutions are only fully effective when diluted to specific concentrations. If cleaning solutions are supplied in bulk containers and dosed manually by operators, the margin for error is high. Many ignore the correct proportions and just add more solution to ensure it is strong enough to work, which is an unnecessary cost to your business.

Dilution Management Systems completely eliminates guesswork, ensuring that cleaning solutions are dosed correctly and efficiently. This ensures cleaning solutions are not wasted or used excessively, saving your business money.

The benefits of installing a Dilution Management System, will provide your business with numerous benefits, in time, resource and money.

Benefits of Automated Dilution

Cost savings – correct dosage of cleaning solutions dispensed with no wastage.
Space saving – centralised dispensing systems mean that barrels are not required press side and larger IBCs can be used.
Print quality – effective cleaning of printing presses at correct doses will help maintain consistent print quality.
Increased productivity – less time is wasted on manually mixing solutions or changing barrels.
Consistent usage – ability to monitor and forecast usage and spend, which also reduces the risk of running out.
Return on investment – the system will quickly pay for itself with savings made from accurate dilution.
Safety in the workplace – reduced risk of spillages with an automated system.
Environmental benefits – only correctly diluted solutions are entering the waste stream.
