Why Embee’s laser stripping better than other technologies

Embee, established in 1956 with a small beginning, always believed in continuous innovation and research for the betterment of today’s and tomorrow’s commitments to the textile industry.

Today Embee provides a complete range of rotary printing solutions. As it is continuously working on bringing technology and innovation together, the company now completely realises the challenges faced in the textile industry such as the running cost, space and energy consumption, hazardous chemicals, maintenance cost, manpower requirement and difficulty in operation slowing down the industry productivity.

Considering these major setbacks, Embee has launched the world’s first revolutionary stripping machine – LaserBird! A non-hazardous, chemical-free, hassle-free and economical rotary screen stripping alternate to the conventional hazardous way.

What is laser stripping?

A technologically advanced machine in which a laser beam coming from a laser source is directed on the screen and the high energy of the laser beam burns the lacquer/coating of the photo emulsion on the surface of the screen and a suction unit removes the ash of the lacquer/coating. The laser stripping machine works in the similar way how the laser engraving machine works. The only difference is that in stripping, the whole screen is completely stripped and in engraving lacquer is removed from the required certain areas only.

What makes Embee’s LaserBird (laser stripping machine) the best?

Day by day, the global norms for compliances and other environmental norms are getting stricter. So, it’s difficult for textile units to use any hazardous chemicals. LaserBird is the best solution as it creates zero pollution and doesn’t require any hazardous chemical to strip.

As compared to conventional technologies like chemical stripping and water-jet stripping, the cost of laser stripping per screen is the lowest. The laser beam is as thin as a human hair that it reaches to the every area of the screen where conventional technology fails to reach. Hence, the laser perfectly strips the screen in the first cycle itself.

The higher the mesh, the higher the precision required. The extremely thin laser beam strokes on each and every area of the screen and perfectly strips the screen where the traditional method can’t reach. For higher mesh screen size like 155, 165, 195 and above, laser stripping is best suited with guaranteed result.

Lowest electricity power required

While making a purchase decision, apart from the price of the machine, even the electricity consumption factor should be highly considered to calculate the running cost. The laser technology requires the lowest electricity as compared to other conventional technology. Laser requires as low as 8 Kw of electricity to run which is 8-9 times lower than other technology.

Unlike other technologies for stripping, laser stripping has no other running cost. LaserBird is economical as compared to other conventional technologies. If we compare the laser technology with the traditional technologies, the reusability of the screen is the highest in laser stripping.

While conventional technologies have their significant impact on the environment and cause damage due to the use of extremely hazardous chemicals, water pollution, etc., Embee’s laser stripping machine doesn’t require any such hazardous chemical.

Machine operation

Day by day the world is getting highly advanced technologically. Customers now prefer a machine which is easy to operate and requires less manpower. The operation of LaserBird is extremely easy and it requires only one worker to plug on and plug off the machine.

As compared to the conventional technology, the laser stripping machine requires minimal manual handling. Hence in laser stripping there is a negligible chance of damage on the screen caused due of manual handling which leads to a longer life of the screen.

Not only LaserBird but all the products from Embee are aligned with the company vision. Embee Group’s vision is to be the most trusted global leader in innovative technological solutions which are focused on higher efficiency and returns for the sustainable growth of all the stakeholders.
