The PRINTFLEX is a new flex graphic printer producing one colour high quality prints, on absorbent and not absorbent films, normally used in medical, pharmaceutical, and food packaging sectors, etc.
It is ideal for inline printing with blank film, with an intermittently moving packaging machine (Thermoforming machines such as MULTIVAC, ULMA, ALMA, TECNOSISTEM, MPS, COLIMATIC, etc. or blister machines such as UHLMANN, IMA, MARCHESINI, BOSCH, KLOCKNER, etc.). This printer is particularly suitable for high speed printing on not absorbent films. Indeed, it can reaches 40 cycles per minute.
It can utilize solvent based inks, water based or UV. Printing in line with blank film avoids using pre-printed films and related costs and eliminates the printing register problems on the packaging machines. This does not prevent from using also pre-printed films in order to cancel and/or modify previous data, adding a colour, etc. After printing, carried out on still film, the same film will flow through the PRINTFLEX pulled by the packaging machine.
This printing machine is equipped with a motorised inking system by ceramic laser engraved inking roller (anilox) with doctor blade.
