A. E. HUDSON — GOOD IMPRESSIONS
The unit has a tare function with a re-
zero capability. This feature makes
short work of mixing a specific colour.
For example, to print a job that requires
one kilo of Pantone 186 red:
1. Place a metal mixing plate on the
scales. Press button to re-zero.
2. Dispense 739 grams of warm red.
Press button to re-zero.
3. Dispense 246 grams of rubine red.
Press button to re-zero.
4. Add 15 grams of Pantone black.
5. Remove plate from scales and
thoroughly mix in the usual manner.

QL Blue
Blankets
A new buffed blue, compressible blanket
designed for the quality sheet fed offset
printer with high speed presses, is now
available from Hudson’s.
The Micro-Cel blanket consists of a
blended polymer surface applied to a
micro cellular compressible base. This
results in a blanket offering quick
release, good ink affinity and resilience.
The precision buffed surface provides a
micro-textured printing substrate that
enhances sheet and ink release. The
buffing also permits much greater gauge
control, with thickness tolerances of
+0.01 mm.
The unique fabric construction of the QL
Blue Blanket makes it less susceptible to
smashing and shrinking due to over
tightening or excessive tension.

and stability
QL Blue Blankets are recommended for:
* High Speed Sheet Fed Presses
* Coated & Uncoated Stocks
* Cartons & Boards
* Dry Offset Printing
* Solvent Resistant

wash that is fully water
miscible, forming highly
stable emulsions with up to

mix it will not only remove
ink but will also remove
gums and paper pile caused
by a build up of paper
coating and paper fibre on
the blanket.
• Less greasy than some
other water miscible
washes.
• Non red label flammability
(flash point 64
o C).

DRL-2010*
Dry Run Lubricant
DRL-2010* forms a thin
lubricating film over all inking
surfaces throughout the
roller train and guards the
roller ends during running.
It protects rollers from
friction damage and heat
build-up on units running
without ink. Treated rollers
remain ink receptive.
The non-drying film protects
stored rollers from dirt,
moisture and oxidation for
very long periods.
DRL-2010* will not affect
the ink drying, gloss or
colour when used as
directed and cleans up
quickly with normal press
wash.
FBW-2010*
Fast Blanket and Roller
Wash
FBW-2010* is a fast,
efficient and highly
effective blanket and roller
wash designed for use on
all types of machines and
on all blankets and rollers.
It will not cause swelling or
delamination of blankets
and will not damage the
rubber or blankets.
When used regularly,
FBW-2010* will impede
glazing of blankets and
rollers, maintaining them in
a clean, matt condition
aiding their ink transfer
properties.
