Celebrating its 50th year in business, Watson-Marlow Bredel, the pioneering inventor of peristaltic technology, continues to lead the world in peristaltic pumping. Having built on its initial invention, driving forward technological developments and bringing hassle-free dosing, metering and transfer solutions to the printing and packaging sector. Watson-Marlow has become a global leader with offices and facilities all over the world.
The print industry is under constant pressure to produce higher quality print and images ever more quickly and competitively. Flexographic and gravure printing which use solvent and water-based inks, coatings and adhesives, and UV-setting varnishes demand 100% reliability and fast changeover between runs. Peristaltic pumps from Watson-Marlow Bredel are the first choice for printers, because they give:
- The fastest changeover time - no pump cleandown at all
- Total containment with no cross-contamination
- Smooth low-shear flow and no air-entrainment in varnishes
- Reversibility to speed changeover and eliminate waste
- Instant start-up because they are self-priming
- Failure free operation because they run dry without damage
