Mounting Tape for Flexographic Printing
Mounting tape is an essential component in flexographic printing, used to mount printing plates onto cylinders or sleeves before the printing process. It features an adhesive coating designed to hold printing plates securely in position while allowing accurate mounting and removal when required.
In the printing and packaging industry, mounting tape supports the production of labels, flexible packaging, corrugated cartons, and other printed materials. Different tape types offer varying foam densities and compressibility to suit specific printing requirements, helping printers achieve the desired balance between print quality, ink transfer, and production efficiency.
Key Applications
- Mounting photopolymer printing plates in flexographic printing.
- Printing on flexible packaging films and laminates.
- Label and tag printing.
- Corrugated board and carton printing.
- Printing on paper and other compatible substrates.
Key Features
- Reliable adhesion between the printing plate and cylinder or sleeve.
