Product information

Inline Printing Units​: Add Function. Create Value. Stay Inline.​

Flexible packaging is taking on more functions. Barrier performance, sealing properties, protective coatings and visual or haptic effects increasingly have to be integrated into the final packaging without making production unnecessarily complex.​

W&H Inline Printing Units bring these additional functions directly into the printing process. By combining printing and finishing in one production step, they help reduce separate handling, additional setups and production time while maintaining precise register.​

Key technologies and features​

  • Solvent-based, water-based, UV and EB inking and drying systems​
  • Flexo and gravure configurations for new and existing equipment​
  • Modular design for different machine layouts and space requirements​
  • Integrated register control for precise inline printing​
  • EASY SYNC for automatic register pre-setting based on a pre-printed SME mark​
  • Improved lacquer detection through newly designed lacquer flash​
  • Higher matrix camera resolution​
  • TURBOCLEAN system for efficient inking and wash-up​
