At K 2022 in Dusseldorf Comexi presented the F2 Origin, its new reference in flexographic printing presses. The latest member of Comexi F2 flexo machinery family sports a refurbished design and incorporates GeniusTech developments to not only improve efficiency, ergonomics and printing quality, but also decrease operator dependency.
The F2 Origin includes new intercolour and tunnel nozzles to optimise the efficiency and performance of GeniusDry, the latest GeniusFlow inking system as well as full integration of GeniusPrint. The machine is designed to be productive not only for medium and long runs, but also for short runs, as changeover time and waste are key factors.
GeniusDry offers high-performance intercolour and tunnel nozzles that allow for superior drying capacity with less total air in circulation. Consequently, GeniusDry has greater efficiency, less sound emission and an upper platform with access to tunnel and drying circuits for uncomplicated maintenance.
GeniusFlow offers an optimised circuit to reduce the use of ink and solvent, one pump system to reduce maintenance as well as air consumption, pipeless doctor blades for easy change and GeniusDoctoring for minimal dot gain.
GeniusPrint offers minimum waste and maximum precision at the push of a button, less dependency on the operator’s skills, as well as rapid job changeover resulting from minimum waste and time. The F2 Origin includes complete integration of linear cameras for the use of GeniusPrint and CingularReal2, as well as improved video accessibility from the upper platform.
The Comexi F2 Origin has a variety of configurations that adapt to the needs of Comexi customers, from single unwinder and rewinder for the shortest runs, to a turret unwinder and rewinder for long-run maximum performance. The new press will be available in 2023.
