Flexo Printing Rubber Roller

flexography, form of rotary printing in which ink is applied to various surfaces by means of flexible rubber (or other elastomeric) printing plates. The inks used in flexography dry quickly by evaporation and are safe for use on wrappers that come directly in contact with foods.A rubber roller is a machine part that is composed of an inner round shaft or tube covered by an outer layer of elastomer compounds. The inner shaft is made of steel, aluminum alloys, or other strong and rigid material composites.The anilox roller is part of a printing ink unit and, as a storage medium, is responsible for providing a defined amount of ink during the printing process. There are tiny depressions on the surface of the anilox rollers.
