Abstract: Flexographic printing machine consisting of one or more printing stations (100) situated in series, each printing station (100) comprising a frame on which at least one cliché-holder cylinder (102) is assembled, suitable for applying ink, taken from a tank (104) by means of at least one inking cylinder (106) in contact with the cliché-holder (102) and rotating in an opposite direction with respect to this, on a continuous strip (108) of materials to be printed. The strip (108) is moved and kept in contact with the cliché-holder cylinder (102) by means of at least one counter-drum (110) which rotates in an opposite direction with respect to the cliché-holder cylinder (102). In correspondence with the counter-drum (110) downstream with respect to the cliché-holder cylinder (102), there are one or more devices (112) capable of drying, desiccating, polymerizing and/or heating the ink deposited on the strip (108) by the cliché-holder cylinder (102).
