Flat-top-dot (FTD) technology and capped digital technology solutions provider, MacDermid Graphics Solutions, has introduced LUX In-the-Plate (ITP) EPIC at INFOFLEX 2018.
ITP EPIC offers a micro-rough surface for ink transfer designed for challenging flexographic printing applications or unique ink requirements. The cap layer, specifically developed for the ITP chemistry, ensures the sheet photopolymer renders the best printing outcomes with the most forgiving operation window.
‘The flexo market cast their vote with a resounding request for MacDermid to combine its capped plate technology with ITP. LUX ITP EPIC provides our customers the ability to increase productivity while improving consistency. MacDermid is excited and proud to maintain our position as an innovation leader,’ said Patrick Mullaney, vice president – Americas.
The photopolymer plate has clean print technology, is UV LED compatible and can be processed either in conventional solvents or in MacDermid’s LAVA Thermal Platemaking System.
