[0002] Flexographic printing press is a common printing equipment, widely used in packaging, label, paper and other industries. It uses a flexible plate as the printing plate and transfers the ink to the printing material by transfer. Flexographic printing presses are generally suitable for large-area, high-speed, and continuous printing needs. Flexographic printing presses are usually equipped with a drying device for quickly curing and drying the ink on the printing material to ensure printing quality and production efficiency. The drying of the ink is accelerated by applying hot air to the printing material. Usually, the hot air is generated by a heating element, such as an electric heating tube or a gas heater. The hot air is sprayed onto the printing material to take away the moisture in the ink, thereby achieving rapid drying.
[0003] When in use, the substrate is generally moved along the bottom of the drying device of the flexographic printing press, but the distance between the drying surface of the substrate and the drying device is generally kept fixed. However, when printing different inks on different substrates, the required drying intensity varies to a certain extent, which leads to different drying effects for substrates printed with different inks, and may cause problems of over-drying or insufficient drying, thereby reducing the overall drying efficiency of the flexographic printing press for the substrate.
[0004] With respect to the above-mentioned related technologies, the inventor believes that when a flexographic printing machine dries substrates printed with different inks, there is a defect that the distance between the drying device and the substrate is consistent, which affects the drying effect.
