Advantages of Filtration in Printing Reduce down time Reduce waste Reduce maintenance Environmental benefits
Down time Weekly dumping of fount and cleaning system Loss of production Wages during down time
Reduce waste Wastage of stock Wastage of fountain solution Reduce amount of waste disposal
Reduce maintenance Cleaner dampening system Reduce contamination of press Better performance Cost saving in maintenance
Environmental benefits Less contaminated fluid voided Reduce water consumption

Calculate Advantage and Amortisation Period between dumping dampening solution Down time on press (from full production to full production) Cost of equipment per hour Total of dampening solution Cost of fountain solution per litre Alcohol per litre (Alcohol Free = 0) RO Water Cost per Litre (RO Free = 0) Alcohol percentage (Alcohol Free = 0) Fount percentage in dampening solution Cost of other additives in dampening solution Cost per litre disposal of waste dampening solution Labour cost per hour (Printers) Labour cost per hour Assistant or maintenance staff Cost of LT IQ UV or LT IQ Filtration System With the following information value of filtration can be calculated
Typical Scenario System of 160 litres total volume Process takes 2.0 hours Currently dumping every 7 days with LT IQ Filtration 60 days 3 x Staff $25 per hour $40 per hour) Down time 2.5 hours (Cost of equipment per hour $200.00) Fount per litre $8.00 Alcohol Free Fount at 3% Disposal of waste dampening $0.20 per litre Cost of LT IQ Filtration $10,500 Cost of LT IQ Consumables at change $65.00
Saving with LT IQ Filtration is $30, per year ($83.75 per day) Includes amortisation of LTI IQ Filtration Unit over 18 months. After 18 months savings are at $36, per annum.
