Gaztron’s PSA Nitrogen Gas Generators utilize Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) technology to separate nitrogen from compressed air. This nitrogen, with purities ranging from 90% to 99.9999%, plays a crucial role in various printing applications:

• Laser Cutting: Nitrogen acts as an assist gas, enhancing the cutting process by:
• Improving cut quality: Minimizing dross and burrs, ensuring clean, precise cuts with minimal post-processing.
• Boosting cutting speed: By removing molten material from the kerf, enabling faster cutting and increased productivity.
• Preventing oxidation: Eliminating the risk of fire and material discoloration, maintaining the integrity of sensitive substrates.
• Digital Printing: Nitrogen plays a vital role in:
• Inkjet drying: Accelerating ink drying times, improving print quality, and boosting production speed.
• Web cleaning: Removing static electricity and dust particles, preventing ink smearing and ensuring crisp, vibrant prints.
• Controlling humidity: Maintaining consistent humidity levels to prevent paper jams and ensure dimensional stability.
• Flexographic Printing: Nitrogen is used for:
• Blanket cleaning: Removing ink residue and maintaining optimal print quality.
• Pressurization: Maintaining consistent printing pressure for accurate registration and color consistency.
• Solvent recovery: Reducing solvent emissions and contributing to a more environmentally friendly printing process.
