Doctor Blades

A doctor blade is the thin sheet on a printing machine that is used to remove excess ink from the surface of the roller. During each printing process, removing the ink of pattern-less area is the key point. In offset printing, this control is a complex process of ink transfer, including ink, formes and paper. In intaglio printing, it is a mechanical operation, which is relatively simple but unique. Doctor blades are required to have abrasive resistance and high efficiency, which ensure the high quality of printing, and they must fit modern intaglio printing’s need of resistance and high speed.
