Double sided adhesive tape for flexographic printing machines
Flexo printing is a technology that uses flexible plates to transfer ink through anilox rollers to achieve printing. Compared with the traditional printing, offset printing, gravure printing and letterpress printing, flexographic printing plate making equipment has the advantages of less investment, short cycle, fast printing speed, the substrate adaptability, the use of environmentally friendly ink etc.. In the field of packaging and printing in Europe and America, the popularity of flexo printing is very high, and it can even reach 90% in the United states. With the progress of technology and the enhancement of environmental protection consciousness, the proportion of flexo printing in our country's printing industry has been increasing, and gradually become a popular printing technology.
For the foam adhesive tape, the effect of the binding process depends on every process of the printing process. The correct use of the adhesive tape can greatly improve the printing quality of the flexo printing. Therefore, in the use of foam dip tape, should pay attention to the following points.
Personal experience: narrow side machine (cascading machine / CEA / yigaofa / Olger / Omet / Jimmy Andy etc.) recommend the use of the common type of TESA, TESA52015/52017 (0.38mm) TESA4963 (0.1mm) in Southern China District of Guangzhou Jiaqi TESA agents. Advantages: good, not easy version of Alice colloidality, reuse rate, good stability and low price.Disadvantages: not easy to tear the plate. It is easy to produce bubbles when the joint is not fit properly.3M mounting tape has the advantages of common specifications: 3M1015/1115/1020/411DL, good stability, easy to rip version, another 3M-E1015H tape used in wide side machine and a sleeve is not easy to have a bubble, to provide printing quality.
Mount tape is a double-sided tape, play a major role in two: first, flexo plate fixed on the printing roller or the sleeve, to prevent the printing plate in the printing process to tilt or displacement, ensure the normal printing process; two, through the selection of foam tape core density, to achieve fine control over in graphic design with the printing pressure, printing plate, improve the printing effect.
