FLEXOGUIDE TECH TIP 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 
Anilox Scoring Prevention 
Scoring or "shiny-lines" are a sometimes-controversial subject on what 
causes them. What is not controversial is that they can ruin expensive 
anilox rolls and cause waste in print jobs. As in most problematic 
situations, it is never one thing that causes or can eliminate the 
problem. Usually a number of preventive measures must be diligently 
adopted to reduce the risk of score lines becoming a major source of 
unwanted costs. Click here for some of the recommended preventive 
measures.
