Sheet Dwell Unit

Enhance Your Printing Quality and Drying Time

PRECISION & EFFICIENCY FOR YOUR PACKAGING NEEDS

Ensure two functions, printing and die cutting, are not engaged with a single corrugated sheet at one time with SUN’s Dwell Unit. The additional space provided by a dwell unit keeps two competing nip points from affecting each other’s activity, as well as providing more drying time and a space for dryers if needed.

Additional drying

Enhances Print Quality

By increasing the dwell time, it prevents print smearing and ensures the ink has sufficient time to dry properly, resulting in improved print quality.

Prevents Interference

The keeps printing and die cutting processes from occurring simultaneously on a single corrugated sheet, preventing interference between these two critical functions.

Provides Extended Drying Time

The additional space created by the dwell unit allows for more ink drying time and can accommodate additional dryers if needed, optimizing the production process.

Self-Contained Vacuum System

The dwell unit incorporates a vacuum system with a vacuum deck that adjusts according to the board caliper (thickness). This helps in securely holding the corrugated sheet in place during the printing and converting processes, ensuring accuracy and consistency.

Compatibility

The dwell unit is engineered to be compatible with various manufacturers and models, making it a versatile and widely applicable solution in the corrugated sheet manufacturing industry.

Space for Dryers

In some cases where conventional drying methods may not be sufficient, the dwell unit offers a space for mounting additional dryers. This allows for better control over the drying process and ensures optimal print quality, especially when dealing with challenging coatings or materials.
