Hybrid printing press with combination flexo + offset with sleeves

XFlex X6 Offset printing machine answers to the needs of brand owners, who need to rely on the maximum replicability of printed jobs, no matter the volumes or the types of job. Web offset printing involves quite important savings in pre-press. The mix of offset and UV flexo printing allows to take advantage of both technology, including the easy ink management and the inner process flexibility. Addressing mainly to large converters of flexible packaging or premium labels, hybrid press XFlex X6 with offset / flexo combination is offered in widths up to 530mm / 21’’ and can be combined in-line with a whole array of printing, converting and finishing solutions to deliver the most diverse products in one single pass.

High-precision ink distribution: Fully motorized and remotely controlled ink fountain blade with independent sectors
Homogeneous ink flow: Ink train system composed by 21 rolls and dampening system with independent adjustment at variable speed
Regular movement and perfect stability: Independent motors on the repeat sleeves and on the chilled impression cylinder
Sharp printing precision: Automatic pre-register and register control system
User-friendly operation: Multi-control station for remote print management and dedicated touch-screen panel on each printing unit

EASY SLEEVE FORMAT CHANGE

Automatic pressure adjustment: OMET patented pressure adjustment system automatically controls and adjusts the pressure of all the rolls at each repeat changeover.

Sleeves equipment: XFlex X6 offset units use pneumo-locking sleeves available with fiberglass, aluminum or carbon fiber external tube.

MULTI-PROCESS TECHNOLOGY

The modular design allows to combined and implement in-line, with no limitations, different printing technologies, as well as special finishing applications and converting units, to always get to the final product in one single passage.
