Abstract:
1. A flexographic printer with temperature-controlled sections and vapour extraction of the type comprising: a frame; at least one rotating back-pressure cylinder, which is mounted on said frame, with an exterior support surface for a band to be printed, at least one flexographic head comprising: wherein the components of said flexographic print head can be moved closer to or farther away from said back-pressure cylinder, of which there is at least one; means of rotating drive for said cylinders, of which there is at least one of each and means for movement drive for said at least one flexographic print head; means of drying or curing a film of ink deposited on the band to be printed; and a surrounding casings, means of interior division which, in combination with said surrounding casing, delimit at least one first and one second sections; and means of circulating fluid through said first and second sections, of which there are at least two and at least one temperature-controlled fluid, with the first and second sections being sufficiently closed and insulated from each other and producing the cited fluid circulation at a flow rate that is sufficient to provide an atmosphere with a concentration of solvent vapour coming from the ink that is below a preset explosion limit in at least the second section, which contains electrical and/or electronic elements and/or devices that are associated with said means of rotation and movement drives.
