CMYK Electro-Eraser Recycles Paper By Erasing Printed Words

Posted on January 12 2011 by Mr. ASK

Time has quite changed now, all traditional things are either vanishing or updated in a modern way. Just take the example of shredding papers – all documents which needed to be wasted, were used to shred using shredding machines. Astonishingly you need not to shred them now, rather use CMYK Electro-Eraser machine that erases printed words on the paper.First watch following images to have a more detailed view of the  product.

Checkout what YankoDesign says about the product which originally introduced by Mohsin Saleh.

Take a peek at this, paper shredder that doesn’t shred – this is the electromagnetic erasing system. The idea for this project came to the designer from observing the destructive effect of electromagnetic radiation on color pigments. Scary! This project aims directly at utilizing electromagnetic radiation in a fully controlled reaction inside a machine to break all bonds of color pigments that absorb only a particular range of the electromagnetic spectrum. What’s that mean? Maybe… reusable paper?

The designer notes that the only way this system would work would be to have those CMYK pigments that would be utilized in a way that their absorption band is different from the paper they’re printed on. This process would be similar to photochromic or thermochromic materials in that color pigments start to decompose into colorless products – HOWEVER, also as the designer notes, this process would be different from photochromic change in that electro erasing would be an irreversible reaction. Hardcore!

We hope it comes on a cheaper rate in market soon.
