This machine stands out for two main reasons. Firstly, there are few gearless printing flexographic printers constructed to handle a web width of 1700mm. Secondly, this Fischer&Krecke machine (now Bobst) not only achieves this feat but also boasts a printing length of 1000mm and is equipped with 10 printing decks!
