nyloflex® ACE 170 D Overview
- 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. Exceptional print results in combination with LED exposure like ThermoFlexX Catena-E.
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.
Processing information
A detailed description of the individual platemaking steps, as well as detailed information about processing and storing can be found in the nyloflex® User Guide.
