Mainstream Waterless Printing Plates, Consumables and Printing Equipment

 Haomei CTP offset printing plates are suitable for heat-sensitive processing systems of various companies, such as Heidelberg, Kodak, and Screen. The waterless CTP printing plate is coated with a photosensitive layer and a silica gel layer on the aluminum plate base, exposed by a heat-sensitive CTP printing machine.

Compared with traditional water printing, the printing proofreading paper can be reduced by about 30%, the printing efficiency can be increased by 20%, and the VOC (volatile organic compounds) and CO2 emissions generated by the dampening solution can be reduced by 90%.

Platesetter

Krause X-Jet platesetter has excellent violet laser imaging technology, precise imaging quality and fully automated plate processing technology. X-Jet is a modular plate making machine: the maximum printing plate processing format is 640x940mm, and it can process 260 printing plates per hour at the fastest.

The laser system generates 64 laser beams to expose the plate mounted on the cylinder, and when the imaging drum rotates, the linear motor drives the laser system to scan along the axis of the cylinder. The synchronization accuracy of the cylinder and the laser beam must reach 2 microns to ensure that the light spot imaging and the movement of the exposure head are carried out synchronously.

Printing machine

The Genius 52UV printing machine adopts a compact satellite design, and the five-color machine covers an area of 12 square meters; it can print paper, cardboard and plastic sheets with a thickness of 0.06-0.8mm; it can be printed with UV ink and can be varnished.

KBA Cortina waterless offset printing machine

KBA's Cortina waterless adopts an anilox roller scraper ink supply system without ink keys, the ink supply system and plate cylinder with constant temperature devices, shaftless transmission, semi-automatic or automatic plate loading devices, and automatic adjustment of printing pressure.

Due to the improvement of the automation level and the cancellation of the water supply system, the structure of the machine is simplified, the height is reduced, and the operation is more convenient.

Ink

Waterless ink is considered an environmentally friendly printing method because it does not use dampening water and does not produce industrial waste water. However, it is precisely because dampening water is not used during printing that sufficient countermeasures are required to prevent smudging during the printing process, and the ink itself is required to have very good smear resistance in product design.

As a printing plate manufacturer, Haomei Aluminum offer different types of printing plates, including thermal CTP plate, violet CTP plate, CTCP plate and PS plate for offset printing. Welcome to leave message below to inquire what you need.
