1. WHAT IS FLEXO PACKAGING PRINTING?
Flexo printing, short for Flexography, is a method of relief printing or direct printing onto packaging surfaces. The content on the printing plate is engraved in reverse for sheet printing and in the same direction for roll printing. Flexo printing technology utilizes anilox rollers to deliver ink directly onto the packaging surface through the printing impression stage. Flexo printing is chosen for packaging with simple block-like content and images without overlapping colors.
2. ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF FLEXO PRINTING:
Flexo printing plates are made from soft materials such as rubber or soft polymer compounds in either loose pieces or continuous sheets. The printing plates are made using laser engraving and then mounted on printing cylinders to ensure the printed content aligns properly. The choice between rubber or polymer plates depends on the packaging design, color overlap on the packaging surface, and the quantity of packaging needed.
Advantages of using Flexo printing:
- Quick drying ink that doesn't smudge on the product.
- High ink adhesion, no color fading over time.
- Up to 9 colors can be printed on both sides of the product.
- Accurate color stacking, no blurring during printing.
- Wide color coverage area, producing sharp and vibrant images.
- Simple Flexo printing process, cost-effective for packaging printing.
- Fast printing speed, improving production efficiency and saving time.
Disadvantages of Flexo printing:
- Flexo printing cannot achieve continuous tone images and color transitions (gradients), limited in reproducing small details and complex colors.
