Matthews Print-A-Mark™ Industrial Offset Printers are used for a variety of industrial applications. With their wide array of inks, they are used to mark a variety of materials including: rubber, plastics, metals, glass, wood and much more.

Method of Operation: Offset ink in an ink fountain is picked up by a rotating ink roll. Before the ink is transferred to a type wheel, it is metered to a desired film thickness by a doctor blade. After the type wheel is inked, an impression of the legend is transferred to the blanket roll which marks the product.

The standard drive mode for Matthews offset printers is provided by the friction between the blanket roll and the moving product or part.
