nyloflex® ACE UP 254 D Overview

Solvent Plate
Round Top Dot
Paper
Coated Kraft Liner
Coated Test Liner
GD2
Water Based Ink
Digital
  • 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

Plate Characteristics

  • Superior printing quality with sharper images, more open intermediate depths, finer highlight dots.
  • Increased productivity, reduced error rate and data transfer without loss of quality due to digital workflow.
  • Consitent & Reliable qualtiy on press and in plate processing.

Superior print quality and efficiency

  • High durometer flexo plate designed for excellent print quality.
  • Developed for water based inks & a broad range of UV-inks(up 4). Also suitable for solvent based inks.

Applications

  • Corrugated Pre-Print
  • Aspectic Pacakging
  • Lables & Flexible Packaging
  • Excellent ink transfer provides high ink density and homogenous, smooth solids, especially on paper substrates.
  • Sharp reproduction of defined highlight areas, text, line work and barcodes.
  • Reliable and consistent print results.
  • Perfect adjustment to small diameter cylinders.

Reliable productivity and durability

  • Low surface tack for less attraction of paper dust and dirt improved storage properties of processed plates, which allow stacking without interleaves easy and convenient handling\
  • Long run life, durability and stability during printing, especially under high press speed conditions

Suitable equipment

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

Printing inks

nyloflex® ACE UP Digital is suitable for all water based printing inks. It is also suitable for solvent based 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.

Processing information

A detailed description of the imaging, exposure and finishing steps, as well as detailed information about handling and storing, can be found in the nyloflex® User Guide.

Certification

XSYS printing plates are produced at Willstätt production site, which is certified according to international standards for quality management (DIN EN ISO 9001:2015), environmental management (DIN EN ISO14001:2015) and energy management (DIN EN ISO 50001:2018).
