Printing Plate Base Using 1-Series Aluminum Plate and Strip

In the printing industry, aluminum plate and strip materials are used to make printing plate bases to support the transmission and reproduction of printed images and text. Due to their excellent mechanical properties and corrosion resistance, these materials ensure the printing quality and stability of PS plates, making them an indispensable important material in the printing industry.

Aluminum Plate for Printing Plate Base Applications:

Widely used in positive PS plates, thermal CTP plates, photopolymer CTP plates, UV-CTP plates, and other offset printing plates.

Specifications of 1-Series Aluminum Plate and Strip for Printing Plate Base:

Advantages of 1-Series Aluminum sheet for Printing Plate Base:

1. 1-series aluminum has low density, helping to reduce the weight of printing equipment.

2. Aluminum has high strength, can withstand pressure and tension, ensuring stability during the printing process.

3. Aluminum has good formability, meeting the needs of the printing industry.

4. Good hydrophilicity and high stability improve printing quality and efficiency.

5. The surface of the aluminum plate can be treated to enhance corrosion resistance and aesthetics.

Surface Quality Requirements for Printing Aluminum Plate Base:

1. Clean and flat surface: Absolutely clean and flat, with no cracks, corrosion pits, scratches, oil stains, or other defects.

2. No non-metallic inclusions and adhesions: The surface should have no non-metallic inclusions, adhesions, cross folds, or cross stripes.

3. Consistent color: There should be no slight color differences, bright streaks, etc.

4. No bulges or wavy edges: There should be no bulges, wavy edges, or other phenomena.

5. Surface roughness: The average surface roughness (Ra) should be 0.17 ~ 0.21μm.
