Pioneers of the patented "Echocel Junior™" precision hand proofer, HarperScientific was instrumental in developing a simulation of the printing press by manufacturing proofers with laser-engraved ceramic anilox rolls with doctor blade metering. This technology enables the user to draw down the exact color with a hand-held instrument. Our latest development is the Phantom™ hand proofer which offers many benefits with great results.
HarperScientific specializes in flexographic and gravure hand-proofing systems for water, solvent and UV systems, which incorporate XLT™ laser-engraved ceramic anilox rolls with doctor blades. These hand proofers include anilox volume ranges of 1.3 - 20.0 BCM, as well as both 60- and 30-degree hexagonal engraving. They also are available with single and banded anilox rolls.
PhantomQD
We have just introduced the Phantom QD™ Proofing System. It is the very first system that is fully portable and utility free so it is not locked in the ink room. Carry it to the press and dial in your ink!
CeramClean II
HarperScientific developed the CERAMCLEAN II™ line of ink cleaners to remove water, solvent, and UV-based inks and adhesives.
CeramClean II™ will effectively & efficiently remove dried ink from the engraving without damaging the cell structure on ceramic and chrome cylinders. It will remove Water, UV and most Solvent based inks and in most instances will remove those tough stains found on the roll face.
CeramClean II™ cleaner may be used on gravure and chrome cylinders providing the same fantastic results.
CeramClean II™ is an excellent stain remover. It can also be used as a supplemental cleaning tool for removing stains or un-cleaned spots on anilox rolls after cleaning on various machine systems.
