nyloflex® FTL 284 D Overview
- Inherently flat top dot flexo plate to cope with all challenges in corrugated post print
- Suitable for all water based printing inks
- Very good washboard reduction on various substrates e.g. uncoated liners or kraft liners in combination with a C and B flutes
Benefits
Consistent print results
- Stable printing of screened designs even when different impression settings are applied
- Excellent ink transfer, with even ink laydown, thus improved and consistent print results, particularly in solid areas
Simple pre-press and plate making
- Reduced press setup time, resulting in less start up waste of inks and substrate by up to 40%
- Mylar and plate material cost savings up to 50% on a single colour separation
- Saving cost due to combination of halftone images and solids on one plate instead of two plates
- Inherent flat top dot technology with UV-A tube exposure reducing complexity and steps in the plate making process
Improve productivity and consistency
- Less dot gain tolerances – on press the flat top dots are less impression sensitive than standard digital dots
- Quick ready-to-press thus reduced start-up times and waste
- Higher productivity due to superior stability at increased press speeds
Suitable equipment
The nyloflex® FTL 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
The nyloflex® FTL is suitable for all water based printing inks.
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.
