Flexo Sleeves Gain Traction
Polymer flexographic printing sleeves eliminate problems associated with conventional plate mounting.
New for large-format sleeve imaging
EskoArtwork recently introduced the Cyrel Digital Imager (CDI) Advance Cantilever targeted to trade shops, large-volume converters, and the flexible packaging market. The CDI Advance Cantilever handles the imaging of large-format sleeves, as well as optional large-format flexo plate imaging, and is built for the wide-web flexible packaging market. The new imager comes with a cantilever air cylinder for fast exchange of print sleeves without requiring additional handling equipment. Users can exchange drums for 50˝ x 80˝ or 42˝ x 60˝ plates, as well as for sleeves up to a length of 83.1˝. A fiber laser with multibeam optics enables the CDI Advance Cantilever to operate at speeds to 8.0 m²/hr.
