Our AM Multigraphics masking sheets are available in the press-specific formats AM Multigraphics equipment requires, and we also carry general-format masking sheets for broader platemaking needs. A high-turnover item in any platemaking workflow, it's worth keeping stock on hand.
For press blankets, we carry AM Multilith blankets in the right dimensions for Multilith and Multigraphics configurations, in conventional compressible constructions suited to these press impression systems.
Dampening covers are critical for maintaining ink-water balance on these older presses, and we carry dampening covers in the correct sleeve dimensions for AM Multigraphics dampening systems.
We also stock the consumables that cycle through most often: clean-up sheets, offset printing plates in conventional and photo-direct formats where applicable, and the press washes, plate cleaners, and fountain solutions to keep your press running clean.
If a part isn't on the site, call us. We source hard-to-find AM Multigraphics press parts and specialty items regularly, and will give you an honest lead time upfront.
Why Print Shops Still Use AM Multigraphics Presses
For short-run forms, letterhead, envelopes, and in-plant printing, AM Multigraphics and Multilith presses deliver consistent quality at a low operating cost. Shops that already own the equipment face far lower capital costs than replacing with modern systems, and experienced operators know exactly what these presses need to produce reliable output.
These are mechanically straightforward machines with decades of accumulated operator knowledge. The challenge is supply, which is what this catalog addresses.
Keeping a Legacy Press Running
Blankets: Inspect for surface glazing, swelling, or compression set at regular intervals. A blanket that's lost its resilience causes impression problems that are easy to misdiagnose as ink or plate issues. Replace on a scheduled cycle rather than waiting for visible failure.
Dampening covers: Wear through fiber breakdown and contamination. A deteriorating cover creates inconsistent water feed and affects print quality. Replace on a consistent schedule.
Clean-up sheets and chemistry: Use them as designed. A clean press between jobs is a press that performs predictably. Use press washes and fountain solutions compatible with your dampening system; incompatible chemistry is a common source of roller and blanket degradation on older presses that doesn't show up right away.
