Flexo Rivals Gravure and Litho

FLEXCEL NX Plates offer a wider tone range than conventional digital plates, with higher density and brighter lights, and no shifts in tone. And the ability to have high-density prints while preserving subtle gradations allows a wider color gamut and simplifies prepress processing.

“In the past, we used to evaluate using special colors to support 4-color printing—reds, greens, blues, or splitting black plates into line and tone work or using two white plates to reach the desired coverage,” says Bramanti “In addition to the processing time, this required adding variables to the system, which certainly didn’t help the repeatability and predictability of the final result.
