Flexographic printing & converting

The controls on the movie player which should be seen above are active and may be used to move backwards and forwards through the movie clip. Note that there is no audio with this movie. If the movie does not  play on your computer, try the movie button below which will attempt to use a movie player on your own computer.

Focus has developed a Rotary Screen system specifically for its range of Flexographic printing presses.
This offers the opportunity to add further value to your Label business without the perceived investment of purchasing a third party system. You will be confident in the knowledge that this system is designed specifically for your press and backed by Focus service and technical support. Screens are available from a number of sources and are glued to Focus supplied end rings using the mounting frame provided. Unlike other systems the servo driven auto-register is standard with fast set up times ensured through its auto impression set up. Silk screen printing can provide various opportunities to add value to labels and open up brand new markets from Pharmaceuticals to Beverages.
