Polish flexo and letterpress washing systems specialist Print Systems has launched Quicker AF18, a plate feeder synchronized with all Quicker C cleaners to automate the feeding and washing of flexo plates. The new machine allows loading up to 18 plates, each in a separate drawer. When connected to a cleaner, the two devices are synchronized automatically. The feeder automatically detects which drawer contains plates, lowers it to the required level of the feeding table, and transports the plate into the cleaner. The process repeats until all 18 feeder drawers are emptied. The operator’s involvement is limited to loading the plates and starting the process with a press of a button.
