Mounting Materials Eliminate Press Bounce

Designed to handle easily, E/bak Cushions allow for printing on rough surfaces while eliminating gear banding and press bounce. Added benefits also include decreasing plate wear and increasing plate life while reducing fluting and board crush at increased line speeds. This value performance corrugated cushion continues to provide standard quality print results, lower dot gain, and maintains high solid ink density, allowing for consistent print results over the entire press run, the company reports. They reduce operating costs by helping to eliminate problems on press with fewer press adjustments.
