1.CI Flexo Printing Machines: Advancing the Future of Flexible Packaging

With the continuous advancement of flexible packaging printing technology, the central impression flexographic printing machine is becoming the ideal choice for many packaging enterprises in their pursuit of high-quality and high-efficiency production. Under different production requirements, the four colors and six color models are the two mainstream solutions that customers pay attention to. They each have their own advantages in terms of color performance, production costs, and operational convenience, and are suitable for different market positioning and application scenarios.
Unlike traditional stack type flexo presses, the CI flexo printing machine places all printing units around a central impression drum. This compact design ensures precise color alignment, minimizes material waste, and keeps print quality consistent even during high-speed operation.

2.Differences between 4 Color and 6 Color

A.Number of Printing Units
The main difference between the 4 color and 6 color incentral drum flexo printing machine lies in the number of printing units.
CI flexo printing machine 4 color: It has four sets of printing units, capable of achieving basic color combinations, suitable for single-color, two-color and conventional color-printed packaging, such as shopping bags, labels, and daily consumer goods packaging, etc.
CI flexo printing machine 6 color: Equipped with six sets of printing units, it can more vividly display color gradations and details, especially suitable for high-representation image-based high-end packaging fields, such as plastic bags, labels, and paper bowl, etc.

B.Advantages and Disadvantages
(1) Color Representation:
The six colour ci flexo printing machine performs better in color gamut reproduction, gradient transition, and image hierarchy, meeting higher-quality printing requirements; the four color ci flexo printing machine, focuses more on practicality and stability, suitable for products with lower image requirements but high production volumes.
(2) Economic Cost:
The overall equipment investment of the four color flexo machines is lower, and the ink and plate-making costs are more economical; the six color flexo machines, although more costly, can enhance product quality and market competitiveness, especially valuable for brand packaging.
(3)Operation and Maintenance:
The structure of the 4 colour flexo printing machine is simpler, and the color adjustment and maintenance operations are more convenient; the 6 colour flexo printing machine relies more on experienced operators for multi-color registration and precision control, but with the integration of modern servo control systems, it can also achieve automated precise control, reducing human error.
