DOYLE#WebClean – Web Cleaning System for the Printing Industry
Highly efficient removal of paper dust and particles in flexographic and offset printing for stable print quality, reduced downtime and fast return on investment.
Operating Principle of DOYLE#WebClean Web Cleaning
DOYLE#WebClean web cleaning systems operate with a multi-stage cleaning process. The system combines several coordinated cleaning mechanisms to reliably remove different types of particles from the moving material web.
The cleaning process includes:
- Ionization bars to neutralize electrostatic charges (improving cleaning efficiency by approx. 10–20%)
- Dual heavy-duty brush rows that mechanically loosen lightly attached or embedded particles
- High-speed air scrubbing, which breaks up the boundary air layer and keeps particles suspended
- Uniform high-performance vacuum extraction across the entire working width to safely remove released contaminants
Through the coordinated interaction of these cleaning stages, high cleaning efficiency is achieved even with demanding substrates and high production speeds.
Benefits of DOYLE#WebClean
- High cleaning efficiency through a multi-stage cleaning principle
- Reliable removal of paper dust, fibres, powder and larger paper particles
- Improved printing and downstream processing quality
- Reduced machine downtime
- Uniform cleaning performance across the entire web width
- Robust heavy-duty industrial design
- Integration possible in both new and existing production lines
In industrial applications, the system contributes to increased process productivity, improved product quality and reduced downtime.
Typical Applications of DOYLE#WebClean
- Commercial printing processes

Frequently Asked Questions About DOYLE#WebClean
Which materials is DOYLE#WebClean suitable for?
DOYLE#WebClean is designed for continuous material webs such as paper, film, board and corrugated board. Many converting substrates can also be cleaned reliably.
When is a multimodal web cleaning system recommended?
Systems such as DOYLE#WebClean are particularly useful at high web speeds, with dust-intensive materials or when higher quality standards require more advanced cleaning technology.
Can DOYLE#WebClean be retrofitted?
Yes. In many cases the system can be integrated into existing production lines. Technical evaluation typically requires information about web width, line speed and installation conditions.
Where is the system typically installed?
Installation is typically performed inline before critical process stages, for example before printing units, coating stations or sensitive downstream processing equipment.
What is the benefit of inline web cleaning?
Inline cleaning reduces particle-related disturbances, stabilizes the production process and significantly improves product quality.
