With almost 200 presses in operation, the MIRAFLEX range of
flexographic presses from German machine manufacturer, Windmöller
& Hölscher (W&H), is the most successful in the world today. At
drupa2012, W&H will introduce the new MIRAFLEX CL as a 10-color
press running at speeds of 600 m/min. This new machine, like the
MIRAFLEX CL 8, was designed for wide-web flexible packaging.

The MIRAFLEX CL 10 addresses the needs of the steadily growing
wide-web package printing market with a maximum repeat length of
1.130 mm (44“). It is anticipated that transport- and secondary packaging,
e.g. for beverages and hygiene products, will also have higher-quality
designs. This is equally true for flexible packaging in industrial sectors,
including construction materials, chemical products and animal feed.
At drupa, demonstrations of the MIRAFLEX CL 10 printing at 600 m/min
will be given throughout the day. This speed is now available for the
entire MIRAFLEX C range.
To reach the 20% increased print speed, the MIRAFLEX is equipped
with the high-performance drive technology and highly efficient between
color deck and bridge drying systems as well as the new generation
TURBOCLEAN inking and wash-up system that is being launched at
drupa (see Press Release 9‘12). During the demonstration, a job changeover
using the EASY automation modules will be shown while the
press in running.
In a dramatically changing world, the designs and sizes of flexible
packaging are becoming more and more colorful and diverse. Yet at the
same time, there is a trend to run smaller and smaller jobs that need to be
produced as economically as larger jobs.
