Fischer & Krecke
      [Innovations in Flexo Printing]

       

      Fischer & Krecke has become the world wide leader in the supply of Wide Web Flexographic Central Impression Drum Presses due to its state of the art electronic and mechanical design.
      Fischer & Krecke has placed 10 presses in Canada in the past 5 years. Since its inception, the Flexpress 16s, which is available in 8 colour and 10 colour models, 35"-83" wide, has received international acclaim. With over 125 machines sold worldwide (50-10 colour) Flexpress 16s is definitely the world leader in gearless technology.

      Fischer & Krecke has been blazing a trail in innovative technology in the wide web Flexo Press market by:
      • incorporating Gearless Technology utilizing AC Servo Motors allowing an infinite number of repeat lengths in presses up to 83" in width

      • eliminating plate cylinders by using a simple yet very comprehensive sleeve system,

      • employing automatic colour to colour registration,

      • utilization of a computer that will store each of the running facets of every job run and then being able to recall those settings the next time the job is to be run,

      • the use of electronic, not hydraulic, deck position giving much finer automatic control to the operator

      • temperature control that includes not only the face of the drum, which is being manufactured to a TIR of 5 microns, but also the sides as well ensuring no contraction and expansion while running

      • temperature controlling the side frames of the press to ensure the drum and deck position not be compromised by changes due to temperature fluctuations
      The completely servo-driven flexo press type FLEXPRESS 16S with sleeve change system sets another milestone in the FISCHER & KRECKE history. Since its foundation already in 1880 FISCHER & KRECKE continues the tradition of innovations and developments, now mainly in the field of flexographic printing.

      Today FISCHER & KRECKE is worldwide one of the most capable manufacturers of flexo printing presses for flexible packaging, linerboard pre-printing and cardboard. The company's continuous success has contributed to its constant growth with the present production area of 40,000 sqm located in Bielefeld Germany.

      In addition to flexographic printing presses, another focus of the company is the production of paper bag making machines for particular demands.

      Further to that, FISCHER & KRECKE plans and installs complete production plants for any of the markets addressed in the packaging industry.
