Flexographic Label Printing Press
The Flexographic printing press is one of the most efficient and consistent printing tools that we have in the market today, for all medium & long run print applications.
Flexo continues to be the most popular of all web-fed technologies that has been deployed throughout the printing industry. A flexo press uses flexible photopolymer printing plates to imprint images across a wide range of surfaces, making it one of the most efficient methods for large volume requirements.
Used widely for labels and packaging - flexo printing is reliable and provides consistently high quality print results at the same time. The printing method is similar to letterpress in how it works, except that ink volume is governed by a laser engraving inking roller – called the anilox roller. The process itself is relatively simple in theory, using a relief image plate, mounted onto a rotating cylinder, collecting then depositing ink onto the substrate with each revolution.
The printing plates are made from flexible polymer material and are resilient enough to withstand millions of impressions. They can even be re-used several times, if stored correctly. The process can be roll to roll, or roll to sheet, and is capable of production speeds over 150 metres per minute, using UV cured inks and with a wide range of optional in-line operations & embellishments available.
