SAFETY COMES FIRST
Employee safety is a top priority in every company. Injuries must be avoided, and occupational safety, alongside the work environment, must be continuously improved. Daetwyler SwissTec‘s piece goods offer a variety of options for giving operators and technicians extra protection when mounting or using MDC doctor blades. The following solutions are available thanks to additional investments in our component manufacturing process:
• Piece goods with a straight cut and a corner radius of 4 mm (radius R4)
• Piece goods with a straight cut and a corner radius of 2 mm (radius R2)
• Piece goods with a straight cut (without radius)
With the „radius R4“ and „radius R2“ options, sharp edges at the ends of the pieces are eliminated, resulting in increased occupational safety when installing MDC doctor blades. The pre-made component, which is specific to the respective printing press, can be wound into rolls. The operator can remove the component from the roll as usual, or it is also possible to obtain the component packaged in cartons. When it comes to the production of piece goods, Daetwyler SwissTec’s flexibility will result in the perfect solution for any customer requirement. When working with MDC doctor blades, please continue to follow our general safety guidelines. For questions, please contact our local sales department or technical support. Feasibility is given for pieces from a length of 0.300m, widths of 25.0 - 80.0 mm and thicknesses of 0.150 and 0.200 mm. Price and availability upon request.
This trade show is specifically tailored to the Chinese market but attracts many visitors from all of Asia every time. Due to the current situation, less foreign visitors are expected to attend. Nonetheless, this expo is very important for the exhibitors as well as visitors.
All large, mid-size, and small national and international exhibitors will be on display as usual. Naturally, Daetwyler SwissTec, represented by Daetwyler Shanghai, will be there with many partners. The team will consist mostly of domestic personnel for obvious reasons. Despite the extra efforts and added safety precautions, the entire Chinese printing industry is happy to have the All-In-Print Expo this year, bringing with it some of the "new normal".
IDENTIFIERS FOR CORRECT USE OF MDC DOCTOR BLADES
The correct handling of MDC doctor blades is imperative for any type of printing success. To ensure correct mounting of MDC doctor blade, specified products will be marked. This marking will enable easy visualization of the MDC lamella / contact side of our coated doctor blades. Our goal is to support the operators in mounting the doctor blade correctly into the holder under any circumstance. This new identification method is illustrated below with an MDC DURALIFE. Using the contact side identifier, we ensure that the MDC doctor blade can be correctly installed into the print station.

NEW MDC DOCTOR BLADE BOX
The transparent lid gives the user a direct view of the remaining available quantity, which allows for a quick determination of when to reorder. Additionally, the MDC doctor blade box offers protection against misuse: the new lid features a predetermined breaking point and can therefore only be used once. This ensures that you will only receive the original doctor blades from MDC. Another advantage of this new design is that less raw materials are used, which allowed us to reduce weight in an effort to lessen the impact on our environment.
HANDLING
The new and unique packaging system also prevents retraction of the doctor blade roll. The user can unwind the roll to the last meter without any pull-back of the doctor blade. However, to achieve this, the doctor blade box must be placed in an upright position. Stickers applied on each box will visualize this step (see image on the right). The added QR code will show a 3D animation of this new packaging and its handling.
MARKET LAUNCH
The new MDC doctor blade box will be launched effective April 2020 and replace - in parallel - the previous packaging. Your local partner will be happy to answer any questions you may have.
