High-quality doctor blades for optimum printing quality

For optimum printing results, it is important to adapt the consumables to the requirements of the printing process and the machine.

While the doctor blade ensures clean ink application on the print substrate, it also has a sealing function. Only with the right specifications for each color deck you can avoid leaks and ensure first-class printing quality even at high speeds and long runtimes. This requires not only the selection of the right materials and dimensions, but also the correct grinding of a doctor blade.

W&H doctor blades meet the highest quality standards and are suitable for flexographic printing presses from various manufacturers. Our portfolio includes doctor blades for a wide range of applications. They are available in different materials and specifications – either as rolls for manual cutting or pre-cut to fit the most common working widths. This way you are optimally equipped for the challenges in your daily production.
