This method is commonly used to print large quantities on rolled material using a shaft system called Anilox.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Flexo printing method helps to emboss the printed elements such as text, images, etc. on the horizontal printing plate so that they are placed higher than non-printed elements. In particular, the images on the printing mold are located in the opposite direction of the Anilox, then through the printing process, the Flexo ink is transferred directly to the printing material.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-8380\" src=\"https:\/\/newstarpaper.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/what-is-flexographic-printing-1-1.jpg\" alt=\"what-is-flexographic-printing-1\" width=\"600\" height=\"300\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Flexo printing is a common method in the printing industry<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_are_the_advantages_and_disadvantages_of_Flexo_printing\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What are the advantages and disadvantages of Flexo printing?<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Any printing technology has different advantages and disadvantages, and flexo printing is no exception.
