Asahi Flexo Plates
HD SF DSF SR SQ DSQ SH DSH

Application
The AFP-SR flexo plate easily withstands the severest mechanical stresses during plate making and printing. Its "soft durometer" and optimal elasticity are ideal for printing on uneven materials, such as corrugated board, heavy-duty bags, and rough paper; the perfect fit to the printing substrate offers excellent ink transfer and superb solid density. Also, the minimized gain from negative film to the AFP-SR plate ensures sharp highlight dots and fine lines, bringing vivid impact to the print.


Advantages
  • high durability
  • optimum intermediate depths
  • steep relief shoulders
  • excellent reproduction
  • brilliant ink coverage
  • high ozone resistance

Plate Features
Plate making, printing, and ink cleaning all subject flexographic plates to mechanical stresses, but the new AFP-SR polymer technology withstands these stresses, minimizing chipping and improving durability.

Asahi standard grade = 100

The AFP-SR highlight dots make it the ideal plate for printing on both solid designs and fine images.
