Flexo Inks
Flexography (Short Name Flexo) is a Method of printing where a flexible relief plate is used. It is basically an Latest version of letterpress from which almost any type of substrate like Paper, Board, Plastic, metalized film, and Cellophane. It is widely used for printing on the non-porous substrates used for different types of food packaging (Flexo is also well suitable for printing  Huge areas of solid color).
A Flexo print is  prepared by creating a positive mirrored master of the given image as a 3D relief in a polymer or rubber material. Flexo plates can be created with digital and analog plate making methods. The image areas are raised above the non image areas on the polymer or rubber  plate. The Flexo ink is transferred from the ink roll which is partially dipped in the ink tank. Then it transfers to the anilox roller (or meter roll) whose texture holds a specific amount of ink since it's covered with thousands of small wells or cups that enable it to meter ink to the printing plate in a uniform thickness evenly and quickly (the number of cells per linear inch can vary according to the type of print job and the quality required). To avoid getting a final product with a smudgy or lumpy look, it must be ensured that the amount of ink on the printing plate is not excessive. This is achieved by using a scraper, called a doctor blade. The doctor blade removes excess ink from the anilox roller before inking the printing plate. The substrate is finally sandwiched between the plate and the impression cylinder to transfer the image.
Flexographic Printing ink Products
Flexo has an advantage over lithography in that it can use a wider range of inks, water based rather than oil based inks, and is good at printing on a variety of different materials like plastic, foil, acetate film, brown paper, and other materials used in packaging. Typical products printed using flexography include brown corrugated boxes, flexible packaging including retail and shopping bags, food and hygiene bags and sacks, milk and beverage cartons, flexible plastics, self adhesive labels, disposable cups and containers, envelopes and wallpaper. A number of newspapers now eschew the more common offset lithography process in favor of flexo. Flexographic inks, like those used in gravure and unlike those used in lithography, generally have a low viscosity. This enables faster drying and, as a result, faster production, which results in lower costs.
