Harper gravure cylinders offer printers the performance, savings and longevity of a ceramic anilox roll. With our proprietary processes, we can burn digital data, patterns, line/shape patterns, logos, graphics and tonal dots of almost any conceivable shape. These patterns and images of high accuracy and predictability can be measured in microns. Our ceramic surface allows for forward or reverse metering and up to 10 times the life over chrome.
Harper has taken great pride in ensuring every customer experiences ‘print quality’ improvements as a result of delivering excellence in its products and services. Experience greater peace of mind with the fairest, most comprehensive warranty in the industry.
Harper’s gravure engraving technology with its laser engraved ceramic coated surfaces makes it a perfect choice for direct gravure and offset coating processes. Among the foremost benefits of laser engraved ceramic gravure cylinders is length of performance. Ceramic cylinders from Harper routinely offer a service life that is 10 times that of a conventional chrome roller. The difference is especially apparent when abrasive inks and coatings are involved.
In addition, the laser engraved ceramic cylinders deliver enhanced consistency and superior flexibility for handling changes in patterns and graphics. With metallic, fluorescents and whites, the cylinders enhance press uptime and consistency.
Gravure engravings can be built from digital halftone files, digital patterns or logos. At the core of our ability to create ceramic gravure cylinders is Harper’s expertise in ceramic applications, laser engraving and post-engraving finishing.
