AFP-SH The flexo
plate for top-quality process printing |
|
Requirements for flexo plates have become increasingly demanding and more complicated.
AFP-SH has been developed to meet the customers strictest requirements for superior print quality and durability.
We accomplish this with improved mechanical strength and higher elasticity, which promotes
ease of plate making and longer, cleaner press runs.
AFP-SH's steep shoulder angle and high durometer contribute to a wide tonal range of 1%-95%
for excellent reproduction in flexible packaging, labels and other demanding applications.
AFP-SH represents the most sophisticated flexo printing plate available today. AFP-SH combines
superior ink laydown, clean deep reverses, wide exposure latitude, compatibility with a wide
range of inks, and excellent quality from start to finish.
 | higher durability |

Plate thicknesses |
1.14mm; 1.70mm; 2.28mm; 2.54mm; 2.72mm; 2.84mm;
or 0.045"; 0.067"; 0.090"; 0.100"; 0.107"; 0.112"

lnks and solvents |
Irrespective of the ink system used-solvent-or water-base or UV ink-the AFP-SH plate always ensures optimum ink
transfer.
It is permissible to use solvent mixtures containing a limited amount of active solvents(ethyl acetate content-preferably under 10%).
|
Storege of raw plates |
AFP-SH plates should be stored at a room temperature of 5-30°C and relative humidity of 55%.
|
Storege of used plates |
Careful cleaning of the plates after printing is recommended.
Direct exposure to sunlight, heat and high concentrations of ozone should be avoided.
