Magnetic and printing cylinders

Supply of cylinders for flexo printing units

cilindros-magnéticos-impresión-flexo

We have a wide range of cylinders for flexo printing and label production. On-demand production is tailored to the customer’s requirements and machine model.
Our manufacturers use the highest quality materials (steel, aluminium, rubber, ceramics, etc.) combined with CNC machining systems.
Cylinders require a high degree of precision in their dimensions, where tolerances are kept to a minimum to ensure good print quality.

Gears and bearings

All cylinders require customised tooling for on-machine operation. Therefore, we supply with our cylinders the gears with spur or helical gears, in standard or hardened steel, depending on the customer’s needs.
We can also supply the necessary gears to provide the printer with the cylinders ready to be fitted on his flexo press.

Types of cylinders

  • Plate cylinder with shafts. Made of aluminium. With anodised treatment, if required, and cutting lines to facilitate cliché mounting.
  • Hollow printing cylinder. Made of aluminium or resin, with edge protection. Light in weight and easy to handle in the machine.
  • Pneumatic cylinders. Manufactured to fit rubber sleeves cut to size. Easy to replace as an alternative to rubberised cylinders.
  • Magnetic cylinders. Manufactured in steel for the placement of flexible cutting dies.
  • Counter cylinders. Made of hardened steel for maximum strength.
  • Cutting cylinders, for handling with blades.

Manufacture of rubberised cylinders

All flexographic machines require gummed cylinders that fulfil different functions:

  • Ink dosing inside the ink duct.
  • Paper or film passage
  • Laminating, pressing or dragging of materials
  • Printing or varnishing

We provide the service of re-gumming or manufacturing with the core made to the customer’s requirements with different types of rubber: NBR, silicone, EPDM, etc. depending on the application and the composition of the inks or coating that have to come into contact with the cylinder.
The rubber covering the cylinder is manufactured by adjusting the density of the rubber depending on the application. The hardness is measured in Shores A and we can produce from 25 to 80 ShA.

What is a print cylinder?

It is a cylinder made of aluminium or resin, with shafts or hollow, whose function is to transmit an image to the substrate by placing a cliché or photopolymer on its perimeter. A double-sided adhesive is first applied to hold it in place and ensure good ink transfer.

 

Can I clean a rubber cylinder with solvent?

It is a cylinder made of aluminium or resin, with shafts or hollow, whose function is to transmit an image to the substrate by placing a stencil or photopolymer on its perimeter. A double-sided adhesive is first applied to hold it in place and ensure good ink transfer.

 

How do I know if the bearings are worn?

Worn bearings can cause vibrations in the machine, noises or smearing in the printing process, among other problems.

 

What types of sleeves can I fit on an air cylinder?

There are three standard types of hardness, but any other type can be manufactured on request. We can also supply different dimensions in inner and outer diameter.
