Flexostar PlateMaster (-TwinFlex)
In February 2017 we have introduced the PlateMaster after numerous requests from the market to come up with a compact DLE system purely for black EPDM plates. The Flexostar PlateMaster is a compact DLE system equipped with a 600Watt YAG Fiber laser. The PlateMaster comes in two versions:
1. Flexo version which is equipped with a fixed clamp vacuum drum (850mm Length / 1250mm Repeat) for black EPDM plates.
2. Dry Offset version which is equipped with a fixed Magnetic drum (850mm Length / TBD mm Repeat) for metal backed black EPDM plates.

For higher engraving speeds the PlateMaster can also be equipped with two YAG Fiber lasers (TwinFlex) with a total power of 1200 Watt. HD flexo capability up to 80 lines/cm and 2000 dots/cm in addition to existing DLE or photopolymer services. The PlateMaster is available for a price lower than CDI. The PlateMaster TwinFlex is equipped with two YAG Fiber lasers which operate simultaneously which results in High Resolution engravings at high speeds. (see PlateMaster (TwinFlex) Tab on this site)

Flexostar IMAGE (-TwinFlex)
Since the introduction of the Mini several years ago, generations have progressed to the Image 1.3 Y. A 1300mm Flexo DLE engraving solution based on YAG fiber lasers with a growth concept where users can start from 200W laser power just to create  HD flexo capability up to 80 lines/cm and 2000 dots/cm in addition to existing DLE or photopolymer services. This very system allows upgrading of laser power to 600W. These inexpensive system configurations, The IMAGE TwinFlex is equipped with two YAG Fiber lasers which operate simultaneously which results in High Resolution engravings at high speeds. (see Image and Image Twinflex Tab on this site)

Flexostar PrintMaster (-HYBRID , -TwinFlex or TriFlex)
Based on the Robust flexible platform, engraving is available from 1 mm to 7000mm and the units can be equipment with both CO2 and/or YAG and work in single and hybrid mode. The latter is CO2 + YAG-fiber laser together which gives both higher speed and higher (YAG) resolution at the same time. The TwinFlex variant uses two YAG lasers which operate simultaneously which results in High Resolution engravings at high speeds.  (see Printmaster and Printmaster Twinflex and Printmaster HybridTab on this site) For even more speed we have introduced at DRUPA 2016 the TriFlex series! TriFlex has three (YAG-) lasers which can engrave up to 1.4m2/hr (Flexostar PrintMaster HYBRID 1800W)
