Gearless flexo printing press is designed to provide high-speed, precise and stable printing for flexible packaging and other roll-to-roll applications. By using independent servo drives and electronic shaft technology instead of traditional mechanical gear transmission, a gearless configuration provides precise control of individual printing units and supports consistent printing performance at high production speeds.
With more than 20 years of experience in flexographic printing machine manufacturing, our company provides flexographic printing solutions for flexible packaging, paper, nonwoven materials, labels and industrial applications. More than 6,000 customers worldwide have used our flexographic printing machines for different printing requirements.
High-Speed Gearless Flexo Printing Press
The full servo gearless CI flexo printing press can achieve a maximum printing speed of up to 500 m/min, with registration accuracy of up to ±0.05 mm.
Each printing unit is driven by an independent servo motor. Electronic shaft technology provides precise synchronization between printing units, while the full servo system allows accurate control of printing pressure and registration.
This configuration is suitable for manufacturers looking for high-speed production, stable print quality and shorter job changeover times.
Sleeve Technology for Faster Job Changes
Sleeve technology is an important part of the gearless flexo printing press configuration.
Lightweight anilox and plate sleeves can be changed quickly, reducing the time required for job preparation and helping operators move between different printing jobs more efficiently.
The sleeve design also provides greater flexibility when different plate repeats or printing specifications are required.
Stable Printing Performance
The flexo printing press is designed to provide stable substrate handling during multi-color printing and continuous production.
A double-wall steel printing cylinder with constant-temperature water circulation helps maintain stable operating conditions during high-speed printing.
A closed-loop tension control system helps maintain consistent web tension, while automatic registration control supports accurate color-to-color registration during production.
Together, these systems help provide stable printing performance for flexible films, paper and other roll-to-roll substrates.

Printing on Different Substrates
A gearless flexo printing press can be configured for a wide range of substrates used in modern packaging production.
Depending on the machine configuration, suitable materials include:
● PE, BOPP, PET and CPP films
● Paper and paper bags
● Nonwoven materials
● Aluminum foil
● PP woven materials
● FFS heavy-duty films
● Laminated and composite materials
These substrates are commonly used for food packaging, beverage packaging, daily chemical packaging, medical packaging, agricultural packaging and industrial packaging.

Automation for Efficient Production
Automation helps reduce manual adjustment and maintain stable printing conditions throughout production.
The machine can integrate automatic registration control, servo printing pressure control, closed-loop tension control and high-speed non-stop splicing.
These functions help operators maintain production stability while reducing setup time and improving overall production efficiency.
Remote video support and online technical guidance are also available for machine operation, troubleshooting and technical assistance. This allows customers to receive support remotely when they need help with machine operation or production issues.
Precision Manufacturing and Machine Stability
Machine stability depends not only on the control system but also on mechanical manufacturing quality.
The production process uses CNC machining centers for precision component manufacturing. An independent R&D team focuses on machine structure, control systems and flexographic printing technologies, supported by proprietary technologies and patents.
The equipment is designed for continuous industrial production, with a stable operation rate of more than 99.8% and cumulative fault-free running time exceeding 1 million hours.
CE and ISO certifications also support the equipment's application in international markets.
Gearless Flexo Printing for Sustainable Packaging
Packaging manufacturers are increasingly looking at recyclable materials, lightweight films and mono-material packaging structures.
These developments are creating new requirements for flexographic printing equipment. Printing on thinner films and recyclable substrates requires stable web tension, accurate registration and controlled printing pressure.
Gearless flexo printing technology can provide the precise drive and control required for these applications. Combined with CI printing technology, it offers a solution for high-speed printing on flexible films and other packaging substrates.
As flexible packaging continues to evolve, high-speed and precise flexographic printing will remain an important part of modern packaging production.
Choosing a Gearless Flexo Printing Press
The appropriate gearless flexo printing press configuration depends on several production factors, including substrate type, printing width, number of colors, printing speed, repeat length and final application.
For high-speed flexible packaging production, a full servo gearless CI flexo printing press can provide precise registration, stable web handling and efficient job changeover.
With more than 20 years of flexographic printing machine manufacturing experience and more than 6,000 customers worldwide, we provide equipment configurations for different flexible packaging and industrial printing applications.
