Product Overview
-
Steel
Benefits
Efficient and consistent processing
- pad printing plate for laser direct engraving
- efficient, consistent and fast plate processing, relief generation in only one process step, no defects caused by dust or damaged film and no data loss during transfer
- highly consistent, especially when repeating plate processing
- suitable for all standard laser systems, for CO2, fibre and diode laser systems, ablation laser systems for flexo and letterpress plates (with magnetic drum) and for all commonly used laser resolutions
Superior pad printing quality
- screen ruling up to 380 lpi (150 L/cm)
- excellent solid density due to brilliant ink transfer because of the straight cell geometry
- highest resolution for the reproduction of finest details
- very good cup gliding characteristics – also well-suited for closed ink cups
- Stable and repeatable print quality due to precise definition of engraving depth
- Suitable for high run lengths
Wide range of applications
- Well-suited for halftone printing
- Gravure plate for high quality pad printing, for industrial, medical and promotional products, for printing on toys, golf balls, decorative designs and for automotive and electronic parts, identification labels
and serial numbers
Suitable laser types
