Vulkollan® provides a precise contact zone between wash-up blade and roller and resist swelling. Ink and cleaning agent residues are cleanly scraped off. Depending on the application, the wash-up time is reduced by approximately 40% compared with conventional steel-rubber wash-up blades. This leads to a saving of up to 50% in detergents, as well as to clearly longer service lifetimes. | **Doctor blade shape** | **Applications** | | --- | --- | | [![https://www-tkmgroup-com.sandbox.hs-sites.com/en/doctor-blades-consumables-0#Lamellenrakel](https://www.tkmgroup.com/hubfs/grafik-png-Oct-22-2020-11-55-21-53-AM.png)](https://www-tkmgroup-com.sandbox.hs-sites.com/en/doctor-blades-consumables?hsLang=en#Lamellenrakel) | Gravure printing | ## Your direct line You can reach us by telephone at [+49 4532 400 0](tel:004945324000) and by e-mail at: [info@tkmmeyer.com](mailto:info@tkmmeyer.com) In a hurry?
