Fome Etching Press cm. 42 With Zinc Plated Metal Plate

Semi‑professional Etching Press. The Fome 3640 is a robust manual intaglio press designed for studios, advanced students, and artists who require higher pressure, smooth operation, and a larger printing format. Solid steel rollers mounted on oscillating ball bearings ensure exceptionally stable movement, while the adjustable roller height allows precise control of printing pressure for different plate types. The press is supplied with a durable metal plate, ready for immediate use.

This model offers increased working width compared to smaller presses in the series, making it suitable for medium‑format intaglio techniques, including drypoint, line etching, aquatint, monoprinting, and light relief printing. The large hand wheel provides smooth, controlled operation during manual printing.
