About this machine

Flora C25 Pro+ Digital Corrugated Board Printer

The C25 Pro+ prints directly on corrugated board and is built for packaging production rather than for occasional work. Industrial piezo drop-on-demand printheads deliver up to 1200 m²/h at a maximum resolution of 600 × 1200 dpi, with multi-level greyscale printing for saturated colour and fine detail. Four working modes — draft, express, production and quality — run at 1200, 600, 400 and 300 m²/h, so the operator trades speed against rendering on a job-by-job basis.

The head arrangement can be extended to three rows, and the move from the economy version to the high-speed version is an online upgrade rather than a rebuild, which lets a converter start at a lower output and add capacity as volume grows. Two ink configurations are offered: water-based, either dye or pigment, fed from 10 litre tanks per colour, or UV LED ink cured on the machine. Both print CMYK. Ink thermostatting holds the temperature, and therefore the viscosity, steady so that drop size does not drift over a long shift; nozzle cleaning and moistening are automatic, which matters on a machine intended for 24/7 running.

Boards are fed on the front edge, held on a vacuum table and carried on an industrial conveyor belt, with a full-servo drive for the board that stays stable at high speed. The machine takes sheets 500 – 2500 mm wide and 400 – 1500 mm long, or up to 4000 mm with the optional support, in thicknesses of 1.5 – 15 mm. Yellow and white kraft corrugated board and honeycomb panels are all within range.

Services are a three-phase AC 380 – 400 V supply at 40 A and 15 kW, plus dry compressed air at 6 – 8 bar, in a room held at 24 – 28 °C and 50 – 70% relative humidity. The machine itself measures 5300 × 3950 × 1820 mm and weighs 5500 kg, but the installation footprint to plan for is 8300 × 8910 × 3000 mm. Data arrives over USB 3.0 and the RIP is Photoprint, with the system open to third-party RIP software.

It suits corrugated packaging converters moving short runs, versioned artwork and sampling away from flexo, where plate cost and make-ready make small quantities uneconomic.

Frequently asked questions

What is the C25 Pro+ for?

Direct digital printing on corrugated board, yellow and white kraft, and on honeycomb panels, in packaging production. It suits converters moving short runs, versioned artwork and sampling away from flexo, where plates and make-ready make small quantities uneconomic. Applications include food, electronics, e-commerce and furniture packaging, gift boxes and POS displays.

What sheet sizes can it print?

Sheets 500–2500 mm wide and 400–1500 mm long, or up to 4000 mm long with the optional support, in thicknesses of 1.5–15 mm. Boards are fed on the front edge, held on a vacuum table and carried on an industrial conveyor belt with a full-servo drive. Send us your biggest box blank and we will check it.

How fast does it print?

Four working modes: draft at 1200 m²/h, express at 600 m²/h, production at 400 m²/h and quality at 300 m²/h, so the operator trades speed against rendering job by job. Maximum resolution is 600 × 1200 dpi with multi-level greyscale printing from industrial piezo drop-on-demand heads.

Water-based or UV LED ink: which version should we choose?

Two versions, both CMYK. The C25 Pro+ uses water-based ink, dye or pigment, which dries naturally. The C25H UV uses UV LED ink cured by UV LED lamps on the machine. Ink thermostatting holds viscosity steady on both. Tell us what you print, on which board, and we will advise which version fits.

Can we start with lower output and upgrade later?

Yes. The head arrangement extends to three rows, and moving from the economy version to the high-speed version is an online upgrade rather than a rebuild. You can start at a lower output and add capacity as volume grows. Automatic nozzle cleaning and moistening support 24/7 running.

What does it need on site?

A three-phase AC 380–400 V, 50/60 Hz supply at 40 A and 15 kW, dry compressed air at 6–8 bar, and a room held at 24–28 °C and 50–70% relative humidity. The machine is 5300 × 3950 × 1820 mm and 5500 kg, but plan an installation space of 8300 × 8910 × 3000 mm. Data arrives over USB 3.0; the RIP is Photoprint, open to third-party RIP software.
