Developed for the efficient creation of flat-top dots and an excellent reproduction of surface screenings, the new plate allows for a reduced bump-up while reaching the first tonal values of e.g. 0.8 to 1.2 percent at 152lpi. Ink lay-down can be significantly improved and a high solid ink density achieved when surface screens are applied, Flint said, providing ‘brilliant’ print performance on film, foil and coated paper substrates.

Further, short exposure and quick washout times enhance the productivity of plate processing.

Although the nyloflex NEF Digital plate is especially designed for high-output UV LED exposure, it can also be exposed with regular tube light units.

The new photopolymer printing plate, nyloflex® NEF Digital, is available to the market in the thicknesses of .045in and .067in from the beginning of August.
