Ci Press
CI press routes suit wide web film work where tension, dryer balance, and impression settings must stay steady across the full repeat. On Durban sites, operators often watch solvent handling, chill roll performance, and salt-air protection around bearings and cabinets.
Narrow Web
Narrow-web press planning centres on short to medium runs for labels, sachets, and lidding where register control and quick job changeovers matter. Typical checks include anilox choice, UV or hot-air curing setup, and web guide response on lighter stocks.
Stack Press
Stack press layouts are commonly used for paper, woven substrates, and simpler film structures where each print station needs clear access for wash-up and plate mounting. Plants usually review unwind braking, inter-station drying, and rewind build quality before pushing speed.
Label Line
A label line needs a clean material path from unwind to die-cutting and rewind, especially when clear film, adhesive stock, and liner waste run together. Teams normally verify sensor position, matrix removal, and print-to-cut register before production starts.
Flexible Pack
Flexible pack press mapping covers film structures used for pouches, wraps, and laminating webs, where ink laydown must match barrier films and downstream conversion. Attention often goes to corona treatment, solvent retention, and tension stability through rewind.
Corrugated Line
Corrugated line press paths focus on board handling, print bounce, and drying control so kraft surfaces take ink evenly without crush marks. On dusty inland sites, crews tend to inspect feed rolls, plate cleanliness, and extraction around drive areas.
Lines
Floor paths that match the week
Flexo Printers maps CI, narrow-web, and stack press paths for flexible packaging, labels, and corrugated work. Sibling energy to Flexography Printers, with its own yellow-forward craft.
Web notes
Recent notes
First Photo
Take a full first photo of the press, unwind, print deck, and rewind so substrate path, access space, and machine condition are visible at once.
Cut Off Habits
Set daily cut-off habits for plate changes, ink mixing, and substrate loading so the next shift starts with the press ready to run.
Coastal Care
For coastal plants, protect bearings, electronics, and metal surfaces from salt air and moisture before corrosion reaches print quality or uptime.
Highveld Dust
On Highveld floors, keep dust away from webs, plates, sensors, and electrical panels to protect registration and reduce avoidable stoppages.
Power Windows
Plan around power windows with safe shutdown and restart checks for dryers, drives, tension systems, and control panels on the press.
Courier Notes
Add complete courier notes for spares, plates, and components so the right part reaches the right press, plant, and contact first time.
