Lean production leaves little room for slowdown. Every shift demands your focus to keep production steady, manage changing teams, and respond to issues before they impact output. With constant pressure to meet targets, you need tools that minimise interruptions and hands‑on effort.
In just five minutes, and without any operator training, SureClean helps prevent ink build‑up and the unplanned downtime it causes.
Why add Linx SureClean to your line?
No more worries about stoppages
Eliminate unplanned downtime
- Automatically prevent blockages: Regular proactive cleaning eliminates the main cause of downtime—ink build-up. Therefore, SureClean uses 11 jets to clean the vital parts of the printhead thoroughly.
- Three wash cycles: You can select from three cycles to address different levels of ink build-up. As a result, you always apply the right level of cleaning for your situation.
- Customisable cleaning reminders: Set reminders during planned downtime. Consequently, you can prevent breakdowns before they occur and keep production running smoothly.
No more worries about operator training
Easy to use
- No operator training: Any operator can complete cleaning at the push of a button. Therefore, you eliminate manual cleaning and ensure consistent results every time.
- Intuitive interface: Simple icon interface and LED indicators display cycle status, fluid levels, and waste capacity.
- Guided wizards: Step-by-step instructions are available if needed. As a result, operators can complete cleaning confidently and correctly.
- Portable device: The wash station is lightweight and easy to move. Therefore, you can clean multiple printers with one unit. Additionally, optional battery-powered operation provides full flexibility.
No more worries about safety
Forget manual cleaning
- No operator contact with fluids: The enclosed wash station eliminates contact with cleaning fluids. As a result, operator safety is improved.
- No risk of damage: Unlike manual cleaning, SureClean removes the risk of printhead damage. Therefore, you protect critical components and maintain print quality.
