Technical Specifications of Foreign Satellite Flexo Presses

Satellite flexo press is the most important model in flexo presses. Its technical performance and grade are determined by several parameters and structural features, which mainly include:
1. Printing materials (including type, thickness/quantitative)
2. Strip Width/Printing Width Range 3. Printing Color Group Number (Maximum Printing Color Number)
4. Printing combination method (front printing color number and reverse printing color number)
5. Printed text repeat length and how to change it (the length is limited or variable)
6. Maximum printing/production speed 7. Cooperating with other printing unit processes (such as gravure, flexo, silk screen, etc.) 8. Unwinding and winding structure and maximum diameter (with or without shaft, single shaft/double shaft )
9. Material transfer mode (stop, semi-automatic non-stop, automatic transfer of paper without stopping)
10. Connection processing methods (glazing, PVDC, cold seal or hot melt coating, cross-cutting, connection flat pressure or garden pressure die-cutting machine, connection compounding, etc.)
11. Applicable ink type (manual gear mesh or automatic pre-register)
12. Pre-registration method (manual gear meshing or automatic pre-registering)
13. How to replace the working unit (replace or stop the replacement of the shutdown)
14. Plate cylinder structure and replacement method 15. Anilox roller replacement method 16. Squeegee structure (squeegee/closed/cartridge type squeegee)
17. Ink viscosity control method (automatic or non-automatic)
18. Drying method (including inter-color drying and final drying)
19. Inking device cleaning method (automatic cleaning system or not)
20. Press management information system (MIS) (roll information, downtime analysis, fault diagnosis, remote technical support)
21. Computer Numerical Control Technology (CNC)
22. Print quality observer 23. Remote control of printing units, etc.
There are quite a few foreign manufacturers of satellite flexographic printers, but not many truly important international manufacturers, such as: German company W&H (Windmoller & Holscher), F&K (Fischer & Krecke GmbH & Co.), Italian company Flexotecnica ( Cerutti Group), Uteco, American Paper Converting Machine Company, Spain's Comexi Company, etc. These manufacturers have the following characteristics:
* Larger annual production, wider market distribution, larger export ratio * Can provide a variety of uses of flexographic printing machines (including pre-printing flexo presses)
* Can provide 10 color satellite flexo presses with a maximum print speed of 350-400 meters per minute or more.
* The products of the above-mentioned important manufacturers, which can produce fully automatic and independent transmission models, represent the highest level of development of current satellite flexographic presses. (Text / Zuo Guangshen) ("Printing Weekly")
