Central drum flexographic press

6-color7-color8-color

Product Overview
Advanced Central Impression (CI) flexographic press engineered for high-quality printing on flexible films and non-wovens. CI drum architecture combined with gearless servo drive ensures stable web handling, precise registration and high throughput across substrates including BOPP, PET, LDPE and laminated foils. Designed for industrial flexible packaging runs with controlled residual solvent levels for food-contact applications.

Key Features

• Central Impression (CI) drum design for stable web control and consistent color registration.
• Gearless Direct Drive (servo) for infinitely variable repeat length and precise speed control.
• 8-color stations (configurable 6–10) to handle complex designs and spot colors on a single press.
• Enclosed chamber doctor blade system with ceramic anilox rollers for uniform ink metering and reduced cleanup.
• High-velocity hot air drying with inter-station dryers for efficient solvent and water removal.
• Precision tension control using load cell systems to minimize web breaks and deformation on sensitive substrates.
• Sleeve-based changeover to reduce waste on short runs (typical changeover waste below 100 m).
• Enclosed ventilation and solvent management to maintain food-grade compliant residual solvent levels.

Applications
Suitable for flexible packaging and label production across industrial sectors: food & beverage packaging including retort pouches and laminated structures, hygiene products (breathable back-sheet films for diapers and sanitary goods), industrial bags and form-fill-seal sacks, and general flexible packaging for BOPP, PET, LDPE, PA and multi-layer films.

Performance & Operational Benefits
Maximum running speed up to 600 m/min while maintaining tight registration (±0.1 mm). CI configuration improves color stability on elastic films. Automated monitoring and optional video inspection systems enable real-time defect detection to reduce waste. Compatible with ultra-thin to heavy-gauge films and robust enough for downstream lamination and sterilization processes up to 121°C where applicable.
