Specification Matching Guide Between Flexo Press Parameters and Actual Printing Materials
This technical guide matches flexo press specifications with substrate thickness, ink type and printing pattern requirements, avoids parameter mismatch between equipment and production materials, and improves printing yield and equipment operation stability.
Unmatched machine specifications and production materials are the main cause of daily printing defects and equipment overload operation. Many printing enterprises purchase flexo presses with unreasonable parameters, resulting in unable to process ultra-thin film or thick corrugated board normally, which reduces equipment utilization rate and increases unnecessary production loss.
Substrate thickness adaptation specification is a key hidden parameter easily ignored in machine datasheets. Conventional flexo presses support substrate thickness from 12μm thin PET film to 4mm thick cardboard. Professional corrugated flexo presses need to expand adaptation thickness up to 6mm, with enhanced impression cylinder pressure bearing specification.

Anilox roller matching specification reserved by flexo presses. Each printing unit needs to reserve matched installation space and pressure adjusting range for different line count anilox rollers. Standard presses support 200LPI to 1000LPI full-range anilox rollers, while low-cost simplified presses can only adapt to medium and low line count rollers, unable to meet high-definition fine dot printing demands.
Tension control specification adaptation for different substrates. Thin film substrates require high-precision micro tension control with tension fluctuation lower than plus or minus 1N. Thick paper and board substrates need large-tension traction system with high traction power. Checking tension control specification is essential for long-term stable web transmission.
Working environment adaptation specification of flexo presses. Standard flexo presses work normally at workshop temperature 18℃-28℃ and humidity 50%-60%. High humidity resistant customized presses are required for coastal humid workshops, with enhanced electrical circuit waterproof specification and anti-rust treatment for metal rollers.
Power supply specification matching requirement. Industrial flexo presses adopt 380V three-phase power supply, with matched rated power ranging from 45KW to 160KW according to automation level. Users need to complete power supply transformation in advance according to machine power specification to avoid equipment startup failure and unstable operation.
