The CDI Spark 5080 is a full-sized flexo imager able to produce larger format price-effective plates for corrugated converters.
The Esko CDI Spark 5080 runs all digital flexo plates as large as 50" x 80" (1270x2032mm) and as thick as 7.35mm (a little larger than 1/4 inch). Full format plates or ablative film, or partial plates of any size can be imaged.
The Esko CDI Spark 5080 has also been designed with enhanced ergonomics. Loading and unloading of large, thick plates is assisted by an air-supported loading table that makes it easy to move plates in place and securing them in place is just as easy with the Esko EasyClamp III pneumatic clamp.
Reduce downtime and optimize the production process for consistent, high-quality plate imaging.
Adapt to changing production needs and requirements with our variety of digital flexo imagers.
Precise and consistent plate imaging results deliver exceptional print quality for flexo projects.
You can choose and configure a CDI to match your current production needs and expand capabilities as your business grows. The CDI Spark family can accommodate all plate sizes, including any brand of digital plate and processing method.
Our market leading CDIs can image digital (LAMS coated) flexo, letterpress (polyester- and, optional, metal based), and chemistry free offset plates, including digital silk screens and chemistry-free film.
Boost press speed and flawless registration by eliminating sleeve deformation and distortion, guaranteeing geometric precision. Digital flexo sleeves rival gravure in printing snack food wrappers, pouches, and frozen food bags with continuous images, with just one cut before packing and sealing.
