The new BOBST THQ FlexoCloud Technology was demonstrated at an Open House in France.

Bobst THQ FlexoCloud is reportedly an easy-to-use flexo solution for corrugated board.According to the manufacturer, there is no need for special skills and this technology requires only three key elements: THQ ceramic rolls (supplied by Bobst); THQ CMYK inks plus varnish for high graphic jobs (supplied by Siegwerk exclusively to THQ FlexoCloud customers); and THQ printing plates (supplied by Graphilabel) that are the core due to a unique color separation al- gorithm. It is associated with ultra-high precision, a larger range with four colors and reportedly enables excellent anti-counterfeit security printing through invisible coded messages. Live Demonstrations Bobst ran live demonstrations at the seminar on a MASTERFLEX-XL THQ FlexoCloud. These demonstra- tions showed customers how this technology enables them to reduce ink consumption as well as number of printing plates. They discovered how to print a larger range of liners and achieve a 65 percent gamut coverage with the four process colors only.
