Advantages of using the new H40 Plus doctor blade

A smarter alternative to ceramic blades
For long runs, ceramic blades have long been the obvious choice. But they’re expensive, fragile, and often discarded before they’re worn out – impacting both cost efficiency and sustainability. H40 Plus is designed to last long enough for most runs where ceramic blades are used today, with shorter setup time, higher print quality, and lower cost.

Refined for demanding applications
The secret lies in its high-thickness coating, making H40 Plus our most durable blade yet. Perfect for cartonboard, corrugated, and other applications with abrasive inks or high wear demands.

Balanced, cost-efficient performance
Engineered for printers who demand premium results without unnecessary wear. Fewer blade changes and reduced waste mean less downtime, lower maintenance, and more efficient production.

Sustainable by design
Manufactured from 100% recyclable Swedish steel in a closed, environmentally responsible process — ensuring consistency, quality, and a smaller footprint.

“You can make a blade that lasts longer, like ceramic ones, but then it starts wearing on machine components. Our focus has been to find the perfect balance: high wear resistance without damaging other parts.”

Mikael, Product Development, Swedev.
