Product Overview Monochrome rotogravure printing machine designed for single-color printing or coating on flexible substrates. Provides precise register control and long-run capability for packaging and label production with straightforward operation and cost-efficient setup.
Application advantages Efficient short-cycle production for long runs; suitable for solid backgrounds and high-opacity ink laydown (including opaque white and metallic effects); compatible with sensitive aluminum foils and a wide range of films, enabling consistent single-color printing and functional coatings.
Key Features - Intaglio (gravure) printing with engraved copper-plated steel cylinder for direct ink transfer
- Register accuracy ≤±0.1 mm
- Designed for continuous, long-run operation with simplified operator controls
- Precision components and advanced machining for repeatability and cylinder longevity
Substrate Compatibility PET, BOPP, PVC, LDPE, Aluminum foil (20-25 μm), PP woven materials.
Applicable Industries - Packaging materials production
- Label and sticker manufacturing
- Wallpaper and decorative printing
- Industrial graphics and coatings
Manufacturing & Quality Control Components produced in a dedicated assembly workshop with advanced machining centers. Quality checks include cylinder concentricity verification (<0.02 mm), inline ink viscosity monitoring, adhesion testing (ASTM D3359), thermal profiling of drying systems and doctor blade wear analysis.
Technical Specifications Register Accuracy: ≤±0.1 mm
Printing Method: Intaglio (Gravure) Process
Color Capability: Single Color / Coating
Production Efficiency: High-speed operation with short cycles
Substrate Compatibility: PET, BOPP, PVC, LDPE, Aluminum foil (20-25 μm), PP woven materials
Key Feature: Engraved copper-plated steel cylinder for direct ink transfer
Operational Focus: Long-run applications, solid backgrounds, functional coatings
Performance & Operation Notes Maximum running speed depends on drying capacity and ink formulation; with appropriate drying and settings, speeds can exceed 200 m/min for compatible substrates. Engraved cylinders provide millions of impressions, can be re-plated and re-engraved to support repeat jobs and reduce per-meter costs on long runs.
Service & Integration Supports integration with converting lines and can be configured with tension control, unwind/rewind options and inline inspection stations. Installation, operator training, maintenance procedures and cylinder handling guidance are provided as part of post-sale support.
FAQ (Selected) - Engraved cylinder lifespan and reuse: Cylinders deliver millions of impressions and can be re-plated/re-engraved for repeated jobs.
- Minimum order and testing: Single-unit purchases supported; factory demonstrations and substrate trials available.
- Integration: Configurable for tension control, unwind/rewind and inline inspection to match existing lines.
- Training and support: On-site installation and operational training plus ongoing technical support are provided.
