After the successful launch of its S7-series flexo platform, Spande will focus on promoting its AC-series wide web flexo packaging production line at Labelexpo Asia 2023. The AC series will be displayed in hall E3 booth M6&N8.
The AC series press is based on Spande’s established S7 flexographic technology. It is available in widths of 700mm and 800mm, with a maximum printing speed of 250m/min. The press is designed to handle a wide range of packaging materials between 12 - 800 microns with a maximum tension of 100 kg, including shrink sleeves labels, coated paper, folding cartons and plastic boxes.
The four rolls on each AC-series printing unit are servo-driven with fully automatic pressure-setting, totaling up to nine sets of servo motors per print unit. The AC series production line can be configured for both roll-to-roll and roll-to-sheet production. It is a modular platform and interchangeable modules include gravure, offset, silk screen, hot stamping/embossing, die cutting, and a range of post-processing units.
The press can be configured with UV curing or with hot air dryers for water- and solvent-based inks. High-power hot air dryers can be shared by both flexographic and gravure printing units. The UV curing units are positioned away from the print units, avoiding temperature buildup and facilitating the use of a common UV system for flexographic, offset and screen printing.
