i-Press central drum flexographic press: stable, controlled and repeatable industrial flexographic printing
The i-Press central drum flexographic press is engineered for high-performance industrial flexographic printing, where register stability, substrate control and consistent quality are not optional, but operational requirements.
The gearless central-drum configuration removes the mechanical variables typical of conventional systems, ensuring a print process that is more predictable, more stable and more repeatable.
This press is designed for real production conditions: continuous shifts, flexible substrates and long runs, without performance degradation over time.
This is the core of the Ofem engineering approach: make flexographic printing controllable, not dependent on ideal conditions.

Central drum flexographic printing, when performance really matters
Choosing a central-drum flexographic press is a technical decision, not a commercial one.
i-Press is designed for print environments where you need:
exceptional register stability,
continuous substrate control,
colour consistency on long runs,
reduced variation between start-up and full production,
reliability-de on flexible and sensitive materials.
The central drum keeps the substrate continuously supported throughout the print cycle, reducing tension, vibration and micro-variation that directly affect final print quality.
Ofem approach to i-Press Gearless
i-Press is not a conventional CI press.
It is a gearless flexographic press, engineered to remove at source the limits of geared systems: mechanical backlash, differential wear and register drift over time.
The principle is clear:
when the process is stable, quality becomes repeatable.
That is why i-Press is developed to:
maintain consistent print conditions,
reduce dependence on highly experienced operators,
enable predictable set-up,
guarantee production continuity on intensive cycles.
Key features
of the i-Press flexographic printing press
Gearless central-drum technology
Direct transmission and digital control eliminate mechanical backlash and unwanted variation.
Register stability on long runs
The substrate remains controlled and supported by the drum throughout the full print sequence.
Reduced start-up waste
The process reaches saleable print in fewer metres, with direct impact on production cost.
Superior control on flexible substrates
Ideal for films and sensitive materials where even small variations become visible defects.
Long-term production reliability-de
Consistent performance on continuous and multi-shift production.
The i-Press flexographic press is particularly suitable for:
flexible packaging-de,
food industry,
chemical and cosmetics,
technical materials and specialty films,
production where quality must remain stable over time.
1. Gearless direct-control technology
Elimination of gears to reduce mechanical backlash and register variability.
Benefit: stable register and repeatable print quality over time.
Why us: because we act on the root causes of instability, not on their downstream effects.
2. Continuous substrate control on the central drum
The substrate remains continuously supported by the drum throughout printing.
Benefit: higher uniformity on flexible and sensitive materials.
Why us: because we engineer the press to control the substrate, not to chase it.
3. Predictable and repeatable set-up
Stable, controlled adjustments reduce start-up phase and variability.
Benefit: fewer waste metres and higher real productivity.
Why us: because we measure efficiency-de on saleable print, not on theoretical data.
4. Lower dependence on operator variability
A more controlled process with less exposure to subjective manual adjustments.
Benefit: consistent quality across different shifts and operators.
Why us: because we turn experience into method, not into risk.
5. Reliability on intensive production cycles
Structure engineered for continuous operation without performance degradation.
Benefit: production continuity and lower indirect costs.
Why us: because we build machines that perform after thousands of hours, not only at commissioning.
6. Long-term investment value
Technology engineered to last and adapt over time.
Benefit: capital protection and stronger ROI.
Why us: because we design flexographic presses to stay competitive, not to be replaced early.
