High Speed 19-Colour Flexo Press At Open House

Tresu Production is producing a 19-colour in-line flexo printing machine - claimed to be one of the largest in the world - which will be demonstrated at an open-house from January 15-17, 2007.

Tresu Production is producing a 19-colour in-line flexo printing machine - claimed to be the largest in the world - for an American customer, which will be demonstrated at an open-house from January 15-17, 2007.

The printing machine is optimised for productivity, flexibility and working environment and it the first in a new concept that Tresu now offers to packaging producers.

The machine is available for paper, cardboard, pre-print and foil production.

With its 19 printing units, the machine will be one of the largest and most complex printing machines in the world, claimed the company.

During its development the emphasis was put on high production speed whilst maintaining the best print quality within the packaging industry, said Tresu.

In addition to the production speed said it also made quick job rotations possible whilst keeping material and resource waste at an minimum.

That is achieved by what are claimed to be new technological approaches, such as sleeve change on anilox and plate rollers and automatic adjustment of the print and register.

The machine is configured for handling both water and solvent based inks and lacquers in addition to UV and EB.

In addition, it is possible to transfer large amounts of inks and lacquers to the medium at high speeds because of the drying system, which can also be adjusted individually on each printing unit, said Tresu.

Machine operation is automated so that the operators can focus on quality control and preparation of the next production job.

The machine is claimed to be suitable for a wide product mix, creating potential for users to offer a wider selection of products from one machine.
