Flexo with Downstream Units
The Downstream Unit is an additional component for flexo machines, that allows various additional finishes to the print. It can be used to print water, solvent, UV, EB inks and special varnishes for aesthetic effects or protective functions.
- High production speed
- High drying capacity
- Versatility




Additional varnish or inks can be applied in line, without changing machines, greatly increasing time savings. Suitable for coating of heavy weights, it can carry up to 4 times paint compared to a standard Flexo color unit.
The high-speed production does not give any downtime when using the Downstream Units, and allows both a faster time-to-market and an important reduction of wasted materials.
