This configuration turns easily even with the most elastic, delicate and difficult fabrics.The printing blanket is the same type used on the MS screen printing machines. It is covered with thermal glue, which is activated by a warm air system installed in the bottom part of the machine. The blanket is washed by a washing module unit, equipped with driven brushes and squeegees that remove all ink residues, and dries the blanket in the final stage. Fabric drying on the JPK-EVO is achieved through an in-line intensive dry model, MS-Powerdry. This dryer can be heated by oil, steam or natural gas and allows one-pass-in-line drying as well as three-pass drying. The fabric at the outlet is wound on cardboard pipes due to the action of two rubber-covered driven cylinders. The machine can be equipped with big-batch unwinders and winders, staves centering unit, folding (plating) device at the outlet, etc. Though the machine can be driven by different printing software (RIP) according to customer specs, the JPK-EVO is supplied with MS RIP Matchprint II.
