Doctor Blade

Ecograph blade is premium doctor blade engineered in Switzerland for printers who demand the highest precision, longevity, and consistency. Manufactured with advanced European steel technology, the Ecograph Blade sets a new benchmark in print performance, ensuring sharp, clean, and repeatable results across flexographic and gravure applications.

Why choose Ecograph?

Other blades simply can’t match the Swiss-engineered precision and extended lifespan of the Ecograph Blade! With a focus on durability and accuracy, Ecograph blades deliver:

  • Longer Wear Life – Advanced Swiss metallurgy ensures less frequent blade changes, reducing downtime and saving costs.
  • Superior Edge Quality – Precisely honed edges minimise streaking, hazing, and blade wear, delivering cleaner, sharper print results.
  • Lower Friction & Heat Resistance – Specially treated materials provide smoother doctoring and reduced cylinder wear, preserving the integrity of your anilox and gravure rollers.
  • Consistent Performance – Engineered for stable ink metering and precise contact pressure, ensuring every print run meets your highest quality standards.

Applications

The Ecograph Blade is suitable for a wide range of applications, including:

  • Flexographic Printing – Achieve crisp, consistent ink transfer on both narrow and wide web presses.
  • Gravure Printing – Perfect for high-speed, high-quality gravure applications with superior doctoring performance.
  • Coating & Specialty Printing – Ensures precision metering for varnishes, coatings, and special finishes.

The Ecograph difference

Conventional solutions:

The dynamic zone
Sharp edges in the dynamic zone causes the breakage of the doctor blade.

Grinding pattern

Doctor blades with longitudinal grinding pattern are exposed to break where the longitudinal
streaks overlap with the
crystalline lines of fracture.

Lapping

Unlapped doctor blades negatively influence the function during the start-up of printing job (waste of printing substrate).

ECOGRAPH solutions:

The dynamic zone

The lamella parallel zone  ends in
a smooth radius to the full thickness base material.


Grinding pattern

The fine cross grinding pattern of ECOGRAPH Doctor Blades results into the best possible surface quality of the lamella.

 

Lapping

ECOGRAPH Doctor Blades have lapped lamella tips. With
the use of especially fine lapped
edge the doctor blade wipes the cylinder 100% clean from the first meters of each printing job.
