HOW TO USE

There are a number of methods of applying Perforating Rules to the Impression Cylinder but ensure any grease or oil is removed and the surface is dry before application and that a Cylinder Jacket is fitted. To apply the Perforating Strips directly to the Impression Cylinder:
• Ink and turn one printing cycle without paper to transfer the image to the Cylinder
• Measure and cut the rules to the required lengths
• Remove the paper backing to expose the adhesive surface
• Align the rule on the Cylinder using the printed image as a guide
• Press down firmly on the rule and secure in position with the clear adhesive tape
• Adjust (back off) impression pressure making sure that press parts clear the rule
• The fitting of a used printing blanket may be preferred in the event that rule leaves an impression after use

QUALITY
• Circular precision cutting
• Long lasting and resistant to damage to cutting edge
• Steel qualities – chrome alloy, high carbon/high chrome and high speed steel
