Despite the emergence in recent years of sealed pot tampo printing machines,
Teca Print's open ink well machines still have a big role to play in the world
of tampo printing. The Teca Print open ink wells are partially enclosed at all
times thanks to the innovative design of a roller blind which covers the ink
well when the doctor blade is in its front position.

Open ink well machines are very useful for printing large images which may
not always fit inside an ink pot machine. They are also favoured by trade
printers or anyone involved with low volume production runs. The main
reason for this, is the printing plate used on a Teca Print open ink well
machine is half the size of that used on a similar sized Teca Print sealed
pot machine, because the ink is drawn back into an ink well behind the plate.

It is also possible to use less expensive water wash plates with the Teca
Print open ink well machines so the consumable costs are greatly reduced.

All Teca Prints open ink well machines can be fully configured to operate
with all the latest tampo printing technology including programmable tampon
cleaning, auto thinner injection and multi colour linear shuttle systems for
multi colour printing.
