How your company benefits:
Compact, practice-oriented and useful training for your staff in the press room. Reach the stability in production run safely with lower print process faults by a reasonable use of fount solution.

More security and transparency in the production run reduce complaints because of quality losses due to fount solution and reduce costs due to lower use of isopropanol. The staff is more satisfied, the fount solution is under control.

Brief description/Field of activity:
A high process stability in conventional offset printing is due to the correct fount solution processing and monitoring. Some physical measurands affect the controlability of the process and should be controlled regularly. One side of granting stability is reliable measuring, the other is the correct interpretation of the measuring data and the derived action.

Goals:
• Controlling the fount solution
• Learning to use diagnostic tools
• Getting to know steps to solve problems

Target group:
Offset printers in commercial and packaging printing, department managers

Tops:
• Water doesn't equals water! Analysis of your water samples
• Testing and evaluating. Which data are relevant? The participants will exercise evaluating.
• The correct fount solution additive for the application - depends from what?
• What happens if the quality of dampening changes? A protocol of the measuring values - an instrument to optimise the process stability
• Defining a workflow together in order to adjust the added IPA in the fount solution
