Return of Investments

Cleaning the spray bars and brush rollers regularly will shorten the washing cycle by 20%.

Assuming and annual consumption of 300 gallons per unit, of washing agent, you will
save 60 gallons per year.

Regular cleaning extends the life of the brush rollers and reduces the expense of exchange.
over the normal depreciation of seven years, you can save the equivalent of one complete
set of brush rollers per printing unit for savings of $1,000.

In fact, the ULTRASTAR is nearly fully automatic, no need of additional employees.

The cleaning chemistry can be used for several cleaning processes and, with a little
preparation can be used again, decreasing consumption.

Not cleaning the modular blanket washers on a regular basis increases the need for
maintenance and repair. It necessitates the replacement of spray bars and other wearing
parts at a replacement cost of $2,700. - $3,000.per unit

The modular blanket washer wash-up device is an expensive investment, such an investment is only efficient when you can use it to 100% for the whole washing cycle.

Spray bars cannot be cleaned without ULTRASTAR. The result is:
Poorly cleaned Blankets and impression cylinder.
The cost of downtime to clean them manually.

Partially cleaned blankets can cause sheet tear at the restart, rendering them defective, which, in turn, increases the volume of misprints during production.

Some registrations show that a fully functional washing device will raise productivity by 4%. With each 100 million printings, productions could increase to 104 million Printings.

Registrations for the first two years show that a printing company,will recoup their investment cost in ULTRASTAR in less than 18 months.

Within the next few months, the ULTRASTAR will be capable of de-glazing the ink Rollers. You will be able to extend the life of the rollers and save $2,000 /unit per year.

ULTRASTAR is very cost effective, no printing company can afford to be without one.
