Flexo Wash to Unveil New Ink Cartridge Cleaner at Printing United Expo 2023

Flexo Wash is excited to introduce its new PK Ink Cartridge Cleaner at Printing United Expo, taking place in Atlanta, GA at the Georgia World Congress Center October 18-20, 2023. Flexo Wash will be located at Booth B1336.

This new PK Ink Cartridge Cleaner is a solution for disassembling and cleaning empty, but dirty, ink cartridges. Ink is washed from the dirty cartridges so that they can be recycled and reused.

This PK Ink Cartridge Cleaner has options to clean 6, 10 and 14 cartridges per cycle. It operates with a wash, drain and rinse cycle. Cartridges are placed in holders and cleaned with custom spray nozzles on the inside and outside during the wash cycle. Operator places three components removed from the cartridges in baskets for cleaning.

The newly cleaned cartridges are then refilled with ink and put back into the press.

Patrick Potter stated, “This patent pending process and technology is going to revolutionize offset cartridge printing. Now thousands of used cartridges will not head to landfills when they are perfectly good for reuse; they can be cleaned and refilled, ready for the next job. As the printing industry focuses on sustainability, this is a big step forward for our entire industry and for printing as a whole. “

Flexo Wash will have this new PK Ink Cartridge Cleaner on display at their Booth B1336.
