GEW to show its new lamp head

GEW to show its new lamp headGEW is launching a UV curing lamp head at Ipex that it says can save money.

The e-System mini works on press widths up to 350mm and cures a range of inks and varnishes on several substrates.

A new power-supply system, e-Brick, saved around 1.5p/kW/hour, it said. UV efficiency increased by around a tenth and electrical costs went down.

Eight lamps each running 6kW could save as much as 2,592 a year, said GEW.
