IMPULSE FLEXO Up to 3x finer resolution than conventional HD Flexo applications! But it is more than the highest print quality … We reduce ink, solvent and energy consumption. How?
• By using water washed printing plates, our IMPULSE PLATE instead of solvent washed, we reduce in our production significant solvent and energy consumption and therefore being more environmentally friendly.
• IMPULSE FLEXO is by using the IMPULSE PLATE and our IMPULSE SCREENING! Both innovative solutions have proven to use less ink, solvent and drying needs. All big aspects for reducing the CO2 footprint at the printer’s site.
• And if we also use the ECG – Extended Colour Gamut working way we can reduce colours to build the print images and with that we reduce printing plates and ink consumption in general.
Additional benefits are,
• No investment in new anilox rollers or machine technology necessary
• No additional setup process necessary, despite the high resolutions on the printing system
• Reduced streaking
• No more moiré effect in the print run
• Increase in OEE

Zecher
Pioneers of the Anilox
Everything at Zecher has always revolved around anilox rollers: What began with the production of the world’s first regularly engraved anilox roller has developed into an international quality provider of innovative anilox solutions.
For perfect printing results, the anilox must be adapted to your individual requirements. That’s where we step in. Our team of qualified experts will help you to identify the right anilox for you. During the process, we rely on our specially developed decision-making tools, such as our specification pyramid, which provides information on which specifications are most suitable for your application.
We are always keen to provide you with the best possible support and work in close partnership to optimize your printing results and your understanding of the impact of anilox. This also means that we support you in the strategic reduction of your anilox fleet and thus, by using our standardization process, accompany you in the areas of sustainability and cost reduction.
Zecher standardization means downsizing your anilox fleet by reducing and replacing possible specifications with a strategic selection of anilox whose specifications cover a wider range of applications.
With our innovative game-changer, the Steppedhex technology, we created an engraving that supports you in terms of cost savings and optimized ink consumption. The engraving features a unique cell geometry arranged in a special offset and comes with technical advantages such as
• higher resolution without significant loss of volume
• smoother running of your doctor blade on the surface of the anilox roller
• optimized printing nip dimensions
• improved emptying and cleaning properties
• optimized support of the print demands through adapted resolution levels
• compatible with all ink systems
• particularly even and homogeneous transfer of white, varnish, gold, or silver
