This advanced printing technology is designed to deliver high-resolution, fast, and cost-effective printing for a variety of packaging materials.
How It Works
Flexographic printing, commonly known as flexo printing, is a versatile process that utilises flexible relief plates to transfer ink onto a substrate. The four-colour flexographic printer employs cutting-edge automation and precision engineering to ensure consistent, high-quality prints. The process involves several key steps:
- Plate Preparation – The printer uses photopolymer plates with raised images that define the print design. These plates are mounted onto rotating cylinders.
- Ink Application – The system utilizes water-based, solvent-based, or UV-curable inks, which are transferred to the plates via an anilox roller that regulates ink distribution.
- Printing Process – As the substrate (such as paper, plastic, or corrugated board) passes through the press, the inked plates transfer the image layer by layer, utilizing the four-colour (CMYK) process for vibrant and detailed output.
- Drying and Curing – Each colour layer is quickly dried using advanced drying systems before applying the next colour to prevent smudging and ensure crisp images.
- Quality Control – The system is equipped with real-time monitoring and automated adjustments to maintain precision, colour accuracy, and print consistency.
