Medium and wide web plate mounters for flexo printing

From the simplest machine to the most advanced, Heaford’s flexographic printing mounters have been developed in collaboration with customers to drive efficiencies and increase productivity in prepress departments.

For manual mounters without motorised cameras, LED display showing positional data in the X axis significantly aides operator set-up negating the need of a tape ruler
Help operators mount consistently with a simple visual traffic light system with user defined mounting tolerance. Featuring a target recognition system that works on all types of register marks
Protect your sleeves and your operators whilst achieving clean cuts/joints on your flexo plates and tape with our range of cutting systems
Automatically generate QA reports with images of mounted plates by colour along with positional data and variance (actual position v programmed position), Stored electronically in PDF format
Apply tape faster, more precisely and more consistently with our range of operator friendly tape holders and applicators
