Polymer Doctor Blades

Polymer doctor blades offer a non-metallic option for selected flexographic metering and chamber-containment duties. Their suitability depends on the polymer formulation, blade stiffness, edge design and operating speed, as well as the anilox and ink system. Different chamber positions may require different blade characteristics. We help define the requirement around your existing chamber and application, so the supplied blade can be checked for the intended duty before use. Confirm the material and profile against the equipment manufacturer’s recommendations.
