From 1-bit TIFF rip screening to laser ablation and LED polymerization, learn how Flexom delivers zero-defect photopolymer plates and nylon blocks.
UV-A light cures the polyester base of the raw photopolymer sheet to create an exact, uniform floor height and relief base.
Uniform Floor BaseHigh-power 4000 DPI fiber lasers ablate the black LAMS mask layer with sub-micron precision to form high-density dot images.
4000 DPI ResolutionHigh-intensity UV-LED exposure in an oxygen-controlled atmosphere cures the image areas into rock-solid flat-top plate shoulders.
Zero Oxygen InhibitionOrbital oscillating brushes dissolve uncured polymer, followed by temperature-controlled air drying to restore original gauge.
Solvent / Thermal WashStandard flat flexo plates suffer from ink pinholing and uneven laydown on impermeable substrates like BOPP and poly films.
Flexom applies proprietary microscopic surface cells (10 to 30 microns) directly into the plate solids during laser imaging. This micro-pattern holds and transfers ink with 100% uniformity, increasing optical density while reducing ink consumption by up to 20%.
Even ink fluidics with zero pinholes on BOPP and poly bags.
