Efficient cost optimisation in the printing industry

In the age of digitalisation, the printing industry is also constantly striving to reduce costs and increase efficiency. Redundant expenditure, minimising downtime and reducing machine maintenance costs are goals that BEX’s innovative solutions play a significant role in achieving.

In this post, we will show how Simalube’s automatic lubrication systems and HIWIN CG series linear guides can help the printing industry optimise costs and increase production efficiency.

Benefits of Simalube automatic lubrication in the printing industry

The maintenance of printing equipment has traditionally been a time-consuming and labour-intensive process, often involving significant costs. By using Simalube automatic lubrication systems, these costs can be significantly reduced. Automatic lubricant delivery ensures that machines are constantly receiving optimum lubrication, reducing unplanned downtime and extending equipment life.

Simalube systems, such as the smaller 15 ml and 30 ml lubricants, are ideal for use in the printing industry. These solutions prevent unintended leakage of lubricants so that the products produced are not contaminated, which is particularly important in precision printing. In addition, Simalube systems ensure a continuous supply to hard-to-reach lubrication points, further increasing production efficiency.

Linear drivers: precision and quiet running for wall printers

Precision and reliability are essential requirements for printing machines, especially for wall printers. The HIWIN CG series of linear profile guides is the ideal solution to these needs. These guides ensure accurate positioning and stability of the print head, even under high torque rigidity. Variable length profile rails allow the printers to print accurately on walls up to 4 metres high, while ensuring quiet and smooth operation.

These linear profile bars not only improve print quality, but also contribute to a longer machine life with minimal maintenance requirements. Precise and quiet running, as well as infrequent maintenance requirements, all contribute to increasing the efficiency of production processes.

Collaborative printing solutions for more efficient production

The integration of Simalube automatic lubrication systems and HIWIN CG series linear guides in printing machines together ensure cost optimisation and increased production efficiency. Automatic lubrication keeps machines in optimal condition, while precision guides ensure print quality and longer machine life.
