Product Overview

  • Solvent Plate
  • Coated Kraft Liner
  • Coated Test Liner
  • GD2
  • Water Based Ink
  • Analogue
  • Perfect plate for digital Round Top Dots as well as Flat Top Dots (virtually 1:1 image transfer)
  • Excellent reproduction through surface structuring for uniform ink lay down and high solid ink density
  • Clearly defined and stable dot shapes – low dot gain tolerances and less impression sensitiveness

Benefits

Superior print quality

  • High durometer plate for highest quality in printing of flexible packaging, labels, beverage packaging and corrugated preprint
  • Excellent print results on film, foil and coated paper substrates
  • Sharp reproduction of finest elements, screens, text and fine line work
  • Outstanding quality reproduction of smooth vignettes and high contrast images
  • Very good ink transfer provides smooth solids
  • Ideal for High Definition Flexo (HD Flexo)
  • High solvent resistance – perfect with solvent based inks, suitable for water based and UV inks

Highly efficient & cost-effective in pressroom and print

  • Superior cleaning behaviour and very low dust attraction
  • Clean running during printing
  • Easy and effective cleaning
  • Less press stops for cleaning
  • Reduced waste
  • Easy handling, good mounting and demounting properties due to the even floor and clear contras
  • Short, accurate and consistent processing
  • Extreme durability – long plate run life, ideal for long print runs
  • Excellent storage properties and increased number of usages due to low surface tack

Suitable equipment

The nyloflex® ACE can be processed with nyloflex® processing equipment and all similar devices. The nyloflex® ACE can be used with all laser systems suitable for imaging flexo printing plates.

Printing inks

Suitable for all water based and solvent based printing inks and conditionally suitable for UV inks (ethyl acetate content preferably below 15%, ketone content preferably below 5%).

Washout solvents

Especially good results are achieved with nylosolv® washout solvents. nylosolv® can be distilled and reused.
