What is Chromaline's Drum Dispensing Unit (DDU) for the Screen Room?

For contract users of Chromaline’s iSC Integrated Screen Chemistry line, we offer the DDU—a pump system that automates the dispensing of critical screen cleaning chemicals directly to your washout area. This system is more than just a chemical pump; it’s a fully integrated setup designed to reduce the time and effort it takes to prep your screens, letting you get back to what matters: printing. Here are some of the key features of the DDU program.

Seamless Chemical Delivery

The DDU is designed to bring your chemicals to your screen wash area with precision. It includes dual diaphragm Teflon and Polypropylene pumps that can deliver ink removers, emulsion removers, degreasers, haze removers, and press washes with the pull of a spray gun trigger. The system’s coiled flex hoses make it easy to handle, ensuring the chemicals are applied exactly where they’re needed—no mess, no hassle.

Customizable to Your Needs

No two print shops are the same, and the DDU recognizes that. The system can be custom configured based on your specific needs. Whether your shop requires one, two, or three pumps, the DDU accommodates everything from simple degreasers to more complex ink and haze removers. A basic model starts with two pumps, with room to add a third for additional versatility.

Efficient and Accurate Dispensing

Accuracy is essential when applying screen chemicals. Too much or too little chemical can lead to wasted time, rework, and increased costs. The DDU ensures that chemicals are dispensed consistently and accurately every time, allowing you to prepare screens faster and with greater precision.

Compressed Air Operation

Running on compressed air at 60 PSI and approximately 3 CFM, the DDU operates efficiently, providing a steady and reliable chemical flow without the need for complex electronics or extra energy consumption. This makes it both effective and environmentally friendly.

Installation and Support: We've Got You Covered

One of the standout features of the DDU program is the support that comes with it. When you sign up for Chromaline’s Drum Dispensing program, you don’t just receive a pump system—you get expert installation and ongoing support. Our technicians will install the system in your shop, ensuring it’s perfectly set up for your workflow. We also provide routine maintenance, keeping the DDU running smoothly and minimizing downtime.

How the DDU Program Works

When you sign up for the Drum Dispensing program, you borrow the pump system in exchange for using only Chromaline’s iSC chemicals. This agreement guarantees you’re using the highest quality products that work seamlessly with the DDU. To maintain productivity, you agree to purchase drum quantities of the chemicals regularly, ensuring you never run out of the supplies that keep your screens clean and your presses rolling.

The DDU is as flexible as your shop needs it to be. Here are some examples of how the system can be set up:

• 1 Pump System: Ideal for applying press wash, emulsion remover, ink remover, or haze remover.
• 2 Pump System: A great choice for managing two different chemicals, such as ink remover and emulsion remover, or emulsion and haze remover.
• 3 Pump System: Perfect for shops needing to handle multiple tasks with ease, such as managing ink, emulsion, and haze remover all in one.
