Flexography
This process is a derivative of letterpress using rubber plate
and the image is raised. Printing by flexography is used almost
solely for bookwork as by the Cameron technique.
Cameron machinery for bookwork printed simultaneously
Cameron, the company which invented this technique started in the late sixties, turning reels of paper into bound books in one unique operation. The press prints only in one colour, using dense ink. The Cameron technique can produce books with a page height between 153 mm and 254 mm, with differing page widths. The great advantage of these presses is that the reprints are easier to produce than with the more traditional printing techniques. Best suited to runs between 10,000 and 150,000 books.
