Solutions for an Automated Prepress Department
RoboCELL
The RoboCELL is the award-winning robotic system that offers a complete robotized prepress workflow. It provides robotic sleeve handling (RoboSLEEVE), robotic tape application (RoboTAPE), and fully automatic mounting (FAMM 3.0).
- Fully automated prepress department
- Highest plate mounting accuracy
- Complete more jobs in less time
- Eliminate tape waste thanks to spiral taping
- Eliminate sleeve damage and mishandling
- Reduce operator related press downtime
Discover RoboCELL
Introduction to the RoboCELL
Discover full prepress automation with the RoboCELL. This video introduces the integrated system that combines sleeve handling, mounting, and taping into a single, unmanned process, setting a new standard for efficiency.
RoboCELL Workflow
This video illustrates the complete, hands-free workflow of the RoboCELL. Discover how the system seamlessly transitions between sleeve handling, taping, and mounting, demonstrating a fully automated prepress operation.
Features
Robotic Tape Application
The RoboTAPE is a game-changer patented solution for applying tape onto sleeves fully automatically and without any tape waste due to the spiral taping. The manual taping is eliminated, along with any related taping mistakes that cause press downtime.
Robotic Sleeve Handling
The RoboSLEEVE is a robotic sleeve handling system. The RoboSLEEVE picks-up the first taped sleeve from the Tech Cart and then, within seconds it loads it on the mandrel of the mounting machine. When the plate mounting process is over, the RoboSLEEVE unloads the mounted sleeve and places it back on the Tech Cart.
Fully Automatic Mounting
The FAMM fully automatically positionns the plates with an accuracy of 2 microns. The plates are mounted in 29 seconds including a quality report.
Tech Cart
The Tech Cart contains all the sleeves required for the job. After taping and mounting the sleeves, the robot puts back the mounted sleeve on the cart.
HMI Console
The HMI Console is used to set up jobs and start the loading and mounting process. XML files can be loaded into the system for a quick start-up.
Gripper Tool Station
The robot changes its gripper tool so that it can handle sleeves and bridges of different inner diameters.
Options
Additional Taping Tool
Additional taping tools can be added in the cell in a dedicated tool station area where the Robot can automatically change its tool and load one with a different density tape.
Additional Tech Carts
More Tech Carts can be added in the RoboCELL for taping and mounting sleeves for more than one job. Each Tech Cart is customized to the different inner diameters and repeats of the sleeves.
Success Stories
Best Technical Innovation for the EFTA Flexo Award 2023
AV Flexologic team received a second recognition for RoboCELL, by winning the EFTA Flexo Award. The jury stated that ''RoboCELL is the complete robotic prepress workflow. The jury wants to promote the mounting process, from start to finish. They see numerous benefits in doing so".
Winner of the FTA 2023 Technical Innovation Award
We have been recognized with the prestigious FTA Technical Innovation Award 2023 for RoboCELL, our latest prepress solution. After 8 years of R&D, we unveiled with the world our patented technology for a fully automated prepress. And now, in 2023, our RoboCELL was designated for its exceptional technical achievements, resulting in significant time saving in the prepress workflow, risk reduction (no manual operator intervention) and improved quality (seamless taping and no sleeve damage).

RoboSLEEVE
The RoboSLEEVE is a robotic sleeve handling solution that offers complete automation in the mounting process. The RoboSLEEVE transfers and loads each sleeve on the FAMM until the whole job is finished. The operator is free to perform other tasks.
RoboTAPE
The RoboTAPE is a game-changer solution for applying tape onto sleeves fully automatically and without any tape waste.
FAMM 3.0
The FAMM 3.0 is a third-generation fully automatic flexo plate mounting machine. It accurately mounts (2μm) multiple plates without any operator interaction.
Tech Cart®
The Tech Cart® is used to transport printing sleeves, anilox sleeves and/or bridges with limited physical effort.
Demounter
The Demounter efficiently removes plates and tape from sleeves without damaging them. Operating the Demounter is very easy and effortless.
Flexo Printing Sleeves
Tech Sleeves® provides the global flexographic industry with high-quality customized flexo sleeve solutions.
Sleeve Storage System
The Customizable Sleeve Storage System offers the highest protection for flexo printing sleeves. The vertical storage prevents sleeve damage and extends the lifetime of the sleeves.
