Charlotte, N.C., April 30, 2009 - "Harper always puts on a first-class seminar," read one of the comment sheets collected at the end of Harper GraphicSolutions'™ Charlotte Sleeve Seminar. It echoed the sentiments of many others who participated in the session, which took place on Thursday, April 16th, at Harper Corporation's headquarters in Charlotte.
Attendees traveled from North Carolina, Virginia and Georgia to participate in the day-long free instructional meeting, which was the result of a popular series initiated last year by Harper GraphicSolutions pros to address the differences between the relatively new technology of anilox sleeves and that of conventional journaled anilox rollers.
Experts from Harper's technical service division presented a series of detailed presentations about proper sleeve handling, storage and cleaning. They also examined the re-engravability differences between rolls and sleeves, and the impact of cumulative total indicator readings (TIR) between the press mandrel and anilox sleeve. All of the information was highlighted with photos of damaged and destroyed sleeves that Harper techs have come across in the field, with advice on how to avoid such damage.
After a complimentary lunch, participants received a tour of Harper Corporation's state-of-the-art manufacturing facility, to see how anilox sleeves are handled and laser-engraved, before they toured the Harper GraphicSolutions laboratory, where Echocheks™ are analyzed and all roll audits are prepared.
