The anilox ink transfer roller is the key component of the flexographic printing machine to ensure the short ink path ink transfer and ink distribution quality. Its function is to quantitatively and evenly transfer the required ink to the graphic part on the printing plate. When printing at high speed, it can also prevent ink splashing.

The functional requirements of the flexographic printing anilox roller mainly include the following points:

①The size of the cells on the anilox roller is uniform and evenly distributed, which can effectively transfer and control the ink volume, so that the thickness of the ink film is uniform and the ink volume is consistent.

②The anilox pattern has high precision, which can ensure the transfer of ink under a small pressure and reduce the phenomenon of ink staining on the edge of the graphic.

③Using the anilox ink transfer roller to transfer ink, there are few ink transfer failures such as ghosting or bars, and less ink flying.

④The thickness of the ink layer delivered by the anilox roller scraper-type inking device is relatively thin and very uniform, which makes color printing of dots possible, and the ink film density is consistent from the smallest dot to the solid.

⑤The anilox roller has high durability and corrosion resistance, especially the application of laser engraved ceramic anilox roller, which greatly improves the service life of the anilox roller and the stability of ink transfer.
