Used In Line Flexo Presses in Zhejiang, China

Overview

In-line flexo presses are continuous web flexographic printing machines where printing, drying, and finishing stations are arranged in a straight production line. They handle labels, flexible packaging, cartons and multi-color runs at high speed, offering precise registration, quick changeovers, and compatibility with water-based, UV or solvent inks. Buyers look for stable frames, reliable drives, accurate three-color registration systems, modular converting options and robust drying units to ensure consistent print quality and uptime.

FAQ

What should I inspect when buying a used in-line flexo press?

Check frame straightness, registration accuracy, condition of anilox rolls and sleeves, plate cylinders, doctor blades, drying units, drive systems, electrical panels, PLC/software versions, maintenance records and available spare parts.

How do I prepare for shipping and installation?

Plan for module crating or partial disassembly, use a specialized heavy-equipment carrier, confirm lift points and weights, arrange on-site crane/forklift, ensure proper utilities (power, air, exhaust) and space for alignment and commissioning.

What routine maintenance does an in-line flexo press require?

Daily cleaning of anilox rolls and doctor blades, inspection of impression cylinders and belts, lubrication of bearings, weekly checks of dryer lamps/IR units, and scheduled calibration of registration and servo systems.

Which consumables and spare parts should I budget for?

Anilox rolls/sleeves, printing plates, doctor blades, UV lamps or IR elements, bearings, belts, drive motors, sensors and spare electronic modules. Stock commonly worn items to reduce downtime.

Do I need training and service after purchase?

Yes—operator and maintenance training speeds commissioning. Consider an OEM or third-party service contract, remote diagnostics and a startup support visit to optimize press setup and reduce production delays.
