Lean ink management systems provider in the Netherlands, GSE Dispensing has launched the improved version of its Colorsat Slim gravimetric dispenser with optimal dosage accuracy.
Designed to provide flexo and gravure ink colors for flexible packaging and carton-board print situations, the Colorsat Slim is user-friendly, labelsandlabeling.com reported.
The dispenser includes a sturdier weighing unit, which weighs dosages up to a maximum 25kg to just 1g, accommodates a maximum of 20 base colors and mixes, dispenses a four-color 20kg recipe of water, UV or solvent-based ink in four minutes.
The Colorsat Slim is powered by GSE's ink management software (IMS) and helps to achieve volume requirements without performing complex, time-consuming manual calculations. It also helps to calculate any excess ink left over from a print into new recipes, and reduce waste.
GSE Dispensing managing director Anne Lourens said the improved Colorsat Slim's accuracy and range of practical enhancements gives the printer added reassurance of achieving brand owners' need for more colors.
"This provides the ideal solution for maintaining a lean operation without compromising quality, including in situations where flexibility and shorter production runs are the norm,' Lourens added.
