AUTOMATIC MICRO-REGULATED CONTINUOUS FILM DAMPENING UNIT

		The only continuous film dampening unit to be fitted in less than one hour on your MO presses, 1-2-4 colors, without altering the original "molleton" system which retains all functions.
		The roller configuration creates a powerful water/ink micro-emulsion generator. The product of which moisters the printing plate continuously with a high degree of accuracy across its entire surface. The water/ink micro-emulsion is extremly fine and homogenous. Essential factors, recognised world-wide, as necessary for the production of constant, high quality printing.
The secret of the fine consistency and the perfect stability of the micro-emulsion lies with the geometrv of the unit combining with its construction from hard chrome and pure copper to give certain physicochemical reactions during the AQUATRON's operation. The hard chrome and the pure copper, when moistened, display a high degree of repulsion to fatty substances on to oil-absorbing and hydrophilic mixtures. This refines the emulsion and maintains perfect consistency throughout the operation of the unit.

THE AQUATRON UNIT IS FITTED TO THE MO WITH NO MECHANICAL ALTERATIONS
