Flexographic plate production

Precision cutting built for flexo plate finishing

Platemakers want plates that arrive at the press damage-free, production managers want a finishing step that keeps pace with the imaging device, and operators want to work without handling sharp knives. The Kongsberg X Series is built to satisfy all three without trading one against the others.

  • Cut complex staggered patterns and plate patches to optimize material use
  • Reduce manual handling to help protect plate quality
  • Remove the need for operators to handle sharp knives
  • Produce custom shipping boxes to securely package finished plates

THE RIGHT SOLUTION FOR YOUR NEEDS

Every challenge deserves the right answer

A cutting table has to hold up against different demands at once. Here is how the Kongsberg X Series answers each of them.

Protect quality

"Every flexo plate we cut has to reach the press without a scratch or a torn edge."

Keep finishing moving

"Finishing can't be the step that slows down everything ahead of it."

Apply expertise

"A finishing step shouldn't mean handing someone a blade all day."
