Machine?!? No, it’s a Method!

My friend’s colleague is planning to put up a printing press business and is asking for some assistance regarding feasibility study and financial projections.  She handed me a draft and came across with these terms such as flexo printing, anilox, anilox roll cleaner, etc.  Having no idea about these things about printing, I googled the terms and found out that anilox is a method used to provide a measured amount of ink to a flexo printing plate.  At first, I thought anilox is a machine when in fact it’s actually a method.  Hehehe…well, at least I’m learning new things out of this project! And because of this, we are trying to look for a good quality anilox roll cleaner at a reasonable (which means, cheapest) price! Hmmm….incurring expenses for the cleaner is inevitable with this kind of business but we have to make sure that we incur the least possible expense to earn a lot of profit!
