Balanced Automation

Apex 6+1 adds an Independent Coating Unit to the Servo Gear Driven CI platform—print and coat paper packaging with Balanced Automation.

01

Servo Gear Driven Control

Advanced servo control with precision gear transmission stabilizes print quality and production efficiency on continuous paper lines.

02

Automatic Register Control

Camera-based register (±0.15 mm) keeps color alignment stable and reduces waste on long Kraft / Coated Paper / PE-Coated Paper runs.

03

Independent Coating Unit

Inline coating for varnish, surface finishing and functional coating—without leaving the CI flexo line.

04

Efficient Paper Production

Balanced Automation keeps long-run Kraft / Coated Paper / PE-Coated Paper packaging efficient—print and coat without leaving the CI flexo line.

Paper Handling & Substrates

Paper Packaging Focus

Unlike paper converting, paper packaging performance is defined by paper tension stability. Apex Series is engineered for low-elongation paper handling across kraft, coated paper, PE-coated paper, CPP and laminated webs.

01

Closed-loop tension control

Independent tension zones continuously correct stretch and speed change on paper webs.

02

Stable paper-web handling

Stable web path control reduces moisture-related register drift on kraft and coated papers.

03

Edge guiding

Precise edge alignment keeps paper tracking stable through continuous multi-SKU production runs.

04

Corona treatment compatibility

Supports coated / kraft paper workflows for reliable ink wetting and adhesion on kraft / coated / PE-coated paper.

Applicable Paper Substrates

Mazak 5-Axis Machining Center

Central cylinder slides and core mounting frameworks are milled in a single-stage clamping setup for consistent CI drum alignment in continuous production.

Heavy-duty gantry milling for Apex Series paper packaging flexo press

Heavy-Duty Gantry Milling

Processes monolithic cast-iron wallboards (up to 120 mm thickness). Reduces structural vibration for stable multi-shift paper converting.

Production ROI

Apex Series improves production ROI through servo gear automation, stable long-run output and balanced CapEx for industrial CI paper production—keeping industrial reliability on paper webs.

01

Faster SKU changeover

02

Reduced setup waste on paper webs

03

Lower material loss

Apex Series 6+1 · Independent Coating Production

Paper packaging paper print samples from Apex Series CI flexo press

01 · Snack Packaging

Paper tension + register stability

Maintains solid coverage and brand graphics on kraft bags and coated paper packs at speed. Suitable for confectionery, chips and industrial paper converting where edge sharpness and color density must hold across long runs.

02 · Stand-Up Pouches

Stable print on laminated structures

Delivers clean boundaries and vivid dots on PE / CPP / composite laminated pouch structures. Controlled drying and closed-loop register protect brand graphics where paper moisture and drying load can otherwise shift color-to-color alignment.

03 · Frozen Food & Coffee Packaging

Brand color for frozen food and coffee bags

Supports brand graphics for frozen food packaging and coffee bags on kraft, coated paper and PE-coated paper structures. Servo gear drive and automatic register keep color consistent through continuous paper packaging production.

Why Upgrade · Servo Gear Driven vs Conventional Gear Drive

Apex Selection Logic

Apex pages use a different comparison logic from Master. Here the question is not “why buy flagship”—it is why upgrade from conventional gear drive to Servo Gear Driven automation, register control and production efficiency.

Dimension

Apex Servo Gear Driven

Drive architecture

Mechanical gear transmission (no servo)

Servo Gear Driven CI flexo transmission

Automation level

No servo — mechanical gear only

Servo Gear Driven CI flexo automation for daily production

Register control

Production goal

Basic continuous CI flexo printing

Efficient CI flexographic packaging production

Buyer reason

Entry industrial CI flexo

Upgrade path — CI Flexo · Balanced Automation

LISHG Series Roles

Note: Master selection logic (flagship vs conventional) is not used on Apex pages. Apex owns the upgrade story: Servo Gear Driven vs Conventional Gear Drive (mechanical gear, no servo). Series cut: Apex = long-run Servo Gear Driven; King = Sleeve CI multi-SKU flexibility.

Apex vs King: Same speed class, different job mix — Apex = Servo Gear Driven · long-run stability · balanced automation; King = Sleeve CI · frequent changeover · multi-SKU flexibility. Choose King when SKU switches dominate; choose Apex when long-run paper output and ownership cost dominate.
