A thermal flexo plate that runs clean and prints clean

Benefits

Plate characteristics

  • High durometer plate for the highest quality in printing of flexible packaging, labels, beverage packaging, and corrugated preprint.
  • Excellent print results on film, foil, and coated paper substrates.
  • High solvent resistance – perfect with solvent-based inks, suitable for water-based and UV inks.

Consistent print quality

  • 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.

Cost & time saving in Plate Making

  • Anti-ink fill-in (AIF) feature.
  • Cleaner print runs.
  • Less press stops for cleaning.
  • Reduced waste.
  • Extreme durability – long plate run life, ideal for long print runs.
  • Excellent storage properties and an increased number of usages due to low surface tack.

Suitable equipment

nyloflex® XAH Digital plates may be exposed using any nyloflex® exposure system and all similar devices, and can be used with all laser systems suitable for imaging flexo printing plates. nyloflex® XAH Digital plates must be processed with the nyloflex® Xpress Thermal Processor.

Printing inks

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

Processing information
