Esko rethinks the flexo platemaking process which used to be a complex and manual process, often involving up to seven different hardware devices.
Flexo average run-lengths are getting shorter, and the industry needs ways to produce shorter print runs more effectively, while less lead time.
This means instant availability of plates and flexibility in press planning. As flexo has to be at par with gravure, digital and offset printing, the highest plate quality and consistency requirements need to be fulfilled in automated processes, simple to adopt.
The CDI Imagers and exposure units offer superb and consistent results that before were only achievable in offset or gravure. There is a CDI for every need: from narrow web label printing, to flexible packaging and wide format corrugated printing.
There's a suite of fully integrated tools available to optimize every step in your flexo workflow, from first customer contact to delivery of goods - not just the imaging part.
From project management, over prepress, to effective color management, Esko's flexo solutions help you shorten your lead times and maximize press uptime.
84% of surveyed flexible packaging converters rate the ability of flexo to produce short-run jobs as better to significantly better compared to competing printing technologies.
