Sonic Solutions
LLC, an anilox roll cleaning equipment specialist serving the flexographic
printing and packaging industries, has announced strong fourth quarter sales,
fueled by increased market awareness in the company’s Phoenix Series line of
ultrasonic anilox cleaning systems.
According to Sonic
Solutions President Joe Walczak, the flexo industry is appreciating a slew of
enhancements recently made to the Phoenix Series. “Sales are up almost 25%
compared to previous quarters, and a lot of our new business is due to our
enhanced Phoenix Series – and the industry has taken note. Labelexpo in
September was a tremendous show for us, and since the show we’ve really kept up
the momentum.”
Enhancements to
Sonic Solutions’ Phoenix Series were made based upon customer feedback, and the
anilox cleaning system has been refined and tailored to meet the evolving needs
of the flexo industry. New features include a safer level of ultrasonics – 68
kHz – which allows smaller bubbles to get into the smaller cells of today’s
higher line count anilox rolls. In addition, the Phoenix Series’ power
generators have been modified to become external, interchangeable and easily
replaceable. Safety has also been addressed through fixed thermostat settings
and a low-level automatic shut-off feature.
The Phoenix Series
is a fully customizable anilox cleaning system, now able to accommodate rolls
of any size. “No anilox roll is too large for Sonic Solutions,” Walczak says.
“From three inches to ten feet, from one roll to eight rolls at a time, we can
customize a system to meet specific needs. And we’ll do it economically.”
