Independent servo of the plate cylinder run differently from the servo running the substrate on the chill drum.
This allows special repeat sizes in exact mm as well as reduction in number of tooling to be procured.

Importance of Format Correction for Repeat Gaps

Material Optimisation: Properly adjusted repeat gaps can help in optimising material use, reducing waste, and lowering production costs.

In summary, format correction in flexo printing regarding the desired along/repeat gap between labels is about making precise adjustments to the printing process to ensure that the spacing between each label is consistent and meets the required specifications. This is critical for the efficient application of labels and maintaining the quality of the final product.
