PFL25
Corrugated Board Printing

PFL25 is a newly developed industrial UV-LED inkjet printer for corrugated packaging or display applications, directly printing on a variety of uncoated and coated corrugated boards. Equipped with industrial DOD piezo electric print heads and UV-LED curing system, the PFL25 printer achieves stunning print quality as well as outstanding print productivity. 


As a cost-effective and sustainable digital printing solution, the PFL25 printer offers you the capability of medium- & short-run printing with quality consistency and variable date printing for fast, customized and high-quality corrugated board production.


* Based on 1800mm x 405mm (70.8" x 15.9") image size per sheet, including loading and unloading time.

Features

Dual- & Single-sheet Printing Modes Expand Applicationss

Dual-sheet printing mode enables to print two jobs simultaneously, boosting print productivity dramatically, for each sheet with a minimum size of 600mm × 600mm and a maximum siz e of 1200mm × 1350mm. In single -sheet mode, the PFL25 printer enables to print on a large corrugated board up to the size of 2500mm × 4000mm.

                Single-sheet Feeding




Advanced Print Head Control Technology

  • PFL25 utilizes advanced DOD piezoelectric print heads featuring up to 600dpi physical resolution, minimum 5pl ink drop size and high jetting frequency.
  • Amica's proprietary VDS (Variable Droplet Size) control technology combines the print head control of 1 to 3 levels of ink droplet sizes. 

Accurate and Exquisite Color Reproduction


  • Amica's high density white ink can be applied as a base printed on brown or other non-white color corrugated materials. The separate white ink circulation system keeps the white ink properly mixed continuously for consistent and stable print quality.
  • PFL25 enables to print spot colors with 4 process inks or spot inks to meet stringent brand requirements while printing corporate logos and recognizing colors.



Variable Data Printing Creates Added Value Applications

The PFL25 printer works seamlessly with MagicPage VDP software and supports monochrome or colorful variable data printing, including texts, numbers, time, serial numbers, QR codes, etc., which can be varied without stopping or slowing down the printing. Variable data printing helps you create added value applications and obtain more business opportunities for personalized packaging and display printing.


Automatic Vacuum Media Feeding Mechanism Helps Save Time and Cost

The PFL25 printer offers automatic and accurate media feeding mechanism, which is covered by multiple vacuum belts and driven by servo motors, achieving effective suction of boards and precise belt motion control. The vacuum system is divided into eight independently controlled zones to position boards with varied dimensions. 

The PFL25 printer supports automatic feeding of boards within 1350mm length and 2500mm width to save labor and time at the same time. The operator loads a pile of corrugated boards onto the preload table, and the mechanism undertakes the rest, stacking the printed boards in the collector for easy removal with stacker. 



Vacuum Feeding Mechanism
Media Collector (Optional)


Dual-roller Mechanism
The Dual-roller Mechanism presses sheet tightly to the table throughout the printing process to ensure it is flat for high quality printing.

Active Negative Pressure System
An Active Negative Pressure System with digital control pressure display gauges ensures high-quality printing at higher possible firing frequency of ink jet printing with industrial piezo print heads.

Print Head Maintenance Module
Based on an all-in-one design concept,the small and compact Print Head Maintenance Module allows automatic purging, wiping and capping, ensuring optimum performance with minimum print head deterioration.

UV Curable Ink for Wide Applications

The double-inlet bulk ink tanks with liquid level sensors are easily used for adding ink and alarming for the shortage of ink.


The PFL25 printer supports UV curable ink for wide applications. UV curable inks have advantages of excellent hardness, durability and water resistance, and enable high throughput on a range of coated and uncoated corrugated boards.
