The heart of the machine consists of a high-precision diamond tool, used for milling the gravure cylinders. It is in the diamond shop (also known as «Diamanti») where we develop and produce these tools. Working on the diamond tools takes years of experience and a lot of know-how.

The diamond tools are created with grinding and lapping machines that were developed in-house. Each supplied Polishmaster comes with 12 precision-milling cartridges and 10 pre-milling tools. The customer can cover an area of approx. 200 – 300 m2 with one tool.

Shipping of resharpening tools occurs via a worldwide distributor network. When tools arrive at the diamond shop, they are immediately checked for any damage. If the diamond tool cannot be resharpened, we replace it. Various work steps are required to offer the customer a high-precision tool. Tools are adjusted to 0.2 micron. If the customer demands an analysis, we can provide one based on an identical machine. Prior to shipping, each tool is checked via a microscope for damage or flaws.

These high-precision tools are shipped in a custom-made box. The Diamond shop handles the order process from start to finish. The entire team has been working passionately in the world of diamonds for many years. We value flexibility, quality, and on-time delivery.

The diamond tools are manufactured in Switzerland and distributed worldwide Daetwyler Graphics AG.

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.
