Halm Jet Press Wet Offset is a printing press that utilizes a dampening system to transfer ink to a printing plate before transferring it to the substrate. It is commonly used for high-volume printing jobs such as newspapers, magazines, and direct mail. The best solution would be to use a water-based ink suitable for wet offset printing to achieve the desired results.
Halm Dry offset presses use a polymner plate (like a letter press) this would transfer the ink to the blanket instead of the subtractive metal plate used on wet ofset press's. The plate cylinders are magnetic to allow the plate to adhere to it. Some people use adhesive backed polymer plates to achieve the same result. All dry offset presses can be converted to wet offset but it is costly. You would need new plate cylinders, complete dampening systems, dampener recirculating tanks, water form arms, new oscillating bushings and new electronic controls for the additional water motors added to the press. These components are available after market for a lower cost.
A plate cylinder from a Halm 4 color jet press typically weighs around 50-60 pounds.
