The effects can surface later, as a recurring print defect, a job changeover that takes longer than expected, or waste with no apparent explanation.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">On top of this comes the risk of plate damage caused by a malfunctioning or underperforming washing machine. Every broken plate can mean a new one has to be made, and over time these remake costs can add up significantly for the company.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">But the cost is not only financial: a shortage of available plates can also prevent an order from being run, delaying production and putting agreed delivery times with the customer at risk.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">That is why effective, reliable washing is not just one step in the process: it is essential to ensuring print quality, production continuity and cost control.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong>Evocleaner machines for every type of ink<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ulmex.com\/en\/sectors\/machines-systems-and-equipments\/\">Evocleaner<\/a> machines, developed by Ulmex for this specific stage of the production process, are designed to address exactly these issues. They are available in different configurations depending on the ink used: solvent-based, water-based, or set up for both. For those who want to use pure solvent, Ulmex also offers an ATEX-certified version, designed to operate safely.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong>How the washing system works<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The system uses rotating and transverse brushes that clean the entire plate surface evenly, followed by a final drying stage with a hot air jet and a sponge brush, so the plate is ready for archiving and storage. The integrated control software automatically adjusts washing cycles and times to the specific application, a detail that matters more over time than it might seem: it means less variability from one wash to the next, less reliance on the individual operator&#8217;s judgement, and optimised water and detergent consumption.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-3788 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ulmex.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/EvoCleaner_1-300x125.jpg\" alt=\"Evocleaner\" width=\"300\" height=\"125\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ulmex.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/EvoCleaner_1-300x125.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ulmex.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/EvoCleaner_1-1024x427.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ulmex.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/EvoCleaner_1-768x320.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ulmex.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/EvoCleaner_1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<h4><\/h4>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong>Technical support and an international partner network<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">There is, however, one aspect Ulmex has been emphasising with its customers for years, and it is perhaps the one least visible on a technical data sheet: technical support. A well-designed washing machine only maintains its performance if someone looks after it over time. That is why Ulmex supports customers worldwide with qualified technical staff, and relies on a network of international partners to ensure the availability of detergents suited to different applications and original spare parts for maintenance.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong>When to consider a new plate washing machine<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">If the washing machine you use today is showing its age, or can no longer fully meet your current production needs, it may be time to consider replacing it. In many cases, investing in a new solution can be more cost-effective than continuing to bear high spare parts and maintenance costs.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a style=\"display: inline-block; padding: 12px 24px; background-color: #1c4a92; color: #ffffff; text-decoration: none; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-weight: bold; border-radius: 5px;\" href=\"mailto:ulmex@ulmex.com\">Contact us<\/a><\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ll work with you to assess your specific situation and identify the Evocleaner configuration that best fits your needs.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><b>Call:<\/b> DE +49 731 9260940 | IT +39 049 6988500<\/p>\n<p><b>Email:<\/b> <a href=\"mailto:ulmex@ulmex.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ulmex@ulmex.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>Discover: <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ulmex.com\/en\/sectors\/machines-systems-and-equipments\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.ulmex.com\/en\/sectors\/machines-systems-and-equipments\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Anyone who works in a flexo printing department every day knows this: a plate that hasn&#8217;t been properly washed rarely shows its consequences right away.
