    In the case of mass production, flexographic pre printing has the following unique advantages: 1. Fast printing speed and high production efficiency. The printing speed can reach 300m/min, and the printing speed with UV ink can reach 500m/m-600m/min. It is also equipped with a fast roller changing system, which automatically picks up materials without stopping the machine to achieve completely uninterrupted printing. 2. The pre printed cardboard box has precise overprinting, minimal color difference, and high printing quality. Due to the uniform printing pressure of the high-precision satellite flexographic printer, which is not affected by the height of the corrugations, the printing quality of the solid, lines, and text is very good. Vector variable frequency motors can be used to achieve synchronous control through PLC controllers, ensuring constant tension of printed materials at different speeds and temperatures, thereby maintaining the stability of overprinting during high-speed printing, and achieving precise and perfect multi-color overprinting of cardboard boxes. The lateral shrinkage of paper is small. 3. The closed ink scraper system ensures optimal ink volume for the mesh roller and printing plate, improves the ink transfer function of the short ink path system, reduces solvent evaporation, and ensures consistent ink color. 4. The cardboard box has high strength and good flatness. After roll to roll printing, the printed color rolls can be directly placed at the hanging paper station and bonded with corrugated paper to form cardboard. They can be directly made into single cardboard boxes through a computerized cross cutting machine, fully utilizing the automatic and high-speed advantages of printing and corrugated machines. The corrugated paper is not compressed or deformed, and the strength of the cardboard box can be increased by 30%, thereby reducing the number of paper grams and lowering the cost of corrugated cardboard boxes. 5. Due to the flexibility of the printing plate, the requirements for the surface smoothness of the paper are not as strict as those for gravure printing, which can reduce the cost of paper and thus reduce the cost of corrugated cardboard boxes.

    Development of Printing Machines in China

    The development of printing machines in our country has gone through a process from scratch, from backwardness to advancement. Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, the printing press manufacturing industry in our country was extremely weak, and could only imitate some small equipment such as embossing machines. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, a printing industry system mainly composed of books, magazines, packaging, and newspapers was gradually formed, and a number of state-owned printing factories were established. The printing machinery manufacturing industry also took shape. In the 1970s and 1980s, Wang Xuan from Peking University invented the Chinese character laser typesetting system, which initiated the digitalization process in the field of Chinese character printing. In recent years, China's printing machine manufacturing technology has continuously broken through. For example, through independent research and development, Shaanxi Beiren has produced high-end gravure printing machines with a market share of over 80% in the domestic market, with more than 500 products and leading and participating in the formulation of more than 10 national (industry) standards. At the same time, the manufacturing technology of domestic digital inkjet printing machines has become increasingly mature, achieving new technological breakthroughs in inkjet printing coating technology, ink droplet and ink volume control technology, etc. The printing quality of domestic rotary inkjet printing equipment has reached a new high.

    How to choose a suitable satellite flexographic printing machine

    Choosing the appropriate satellite flexographic printing machine can start from the core requirements and focus on the following points: Clarify production capacity and speed: Select matching printing speed (such as 300-600 meters/minute) and maximum width based on order quantity to ensure efficiency meets standards. Check material compatibility: Confirm the equipment's ability to control tension and adjust pressure on its own substrates (film, paper, aluminum foil, etc.). Focus on printing accuracy: Priority should be given to models with servo drive and online detection to ensure high-precision printing requirements such as fine lines and small text. Balancing environmental protection and cost: Choose models that support water-based/UV ink, while paying attention to plate compatibility, energy consumption, and maintenance convenience, to control long-term costs. Choose reliable configuration: Prioritize well-known brands to ensure the stability of core components (such as the central drum and transmission system) and reduce downtime due to malfunctions.
