Abstract

The sleeve (10) for use on flexoprinting machines comprises an electrically conductive surface (6) which is joined to a contact zone on the sleeve carrier cylinder via an electrically conductive unit (20) accommodated in the sleeve body (2). The purpose of this arrangement is conduct electrostatic charges into the outer wall of the sleeve carrier cylinder.
