High-quality and reliable printing CTP (Computer To Plate)

Engraving and pre-press for industrial and label printing solutions

Fibre Diode lasers are used to image the printing form by ablating a black mask or by UV-curing directly (with the use of UV-lasers) a photosensitive lacquer.

 

Flexo plates

Flexo plate printing forms are commonly used for packaging materials (foil, paper and labels, tissues). It can be imaged with a CTP system according to the CTP = LAM principle + UV exposure or with the direct laser engraving machines.

  • TITANIUM - CTP
  • THORIUM - DLE
  • PLATINUM - DLE

Flexo sleeves

Flexo sleeve printing forms are commonly used for printing of packaging materials (foil, paper and labels, tissues). Following direct laser engraving devices can be used:

  • THORIUM - DLE
  • PLATINUM - DLE

 

Dry offset

In the dry offset industry (indirect printing (wet in wet) of seamless containers like cans, cups, tubes and aerosol cans) SPGPrints is a market and technology leader in pre-press, especially for 2 piece beverage cans. To produce the printing plates either a direct laser engraving system or the computer to plate system can be used.

  • TITANIUM - CTP
  • THORIUM - DLE

Letterpress

Letterpress is now only seldom used for printing narrow web and labels. Letterpress plates are thin plates that either have a foil back or metal back. As the metal back plates are the same plates that are used for dry offset printing, the terms letterpress and dry offset are often mixed up. Plates for letterpress can be either engraved with DLE or imaged using our CTP devices. 

  • TITANIUM - CTP
  • THORIUM - DLE
screen printing market | Rotaplate®

RotaPlate®

Rotary screen printing is commonly used with label and narrow web printing used in order to do opaque white, special effects, embellishments and refining. The RotaPlate® can be used for this application (plate material that is sealed to an in-the-round printing sleeve after exposing). For imaging and exposing different units can be used:

screen printing market | Rotamesh®

RotaMesh®

A welded in-the-round screen is used by RotaMesh®. For engraving and exposing RotaMesh® following units can be used:

  • RHODIUM - DLE
  • YTTRIUM - Direct laser exposer
Discover Rotamesh

Intaglio

Intaglio is a printing form where the image is deeper as the non-printing part of the printing form. Intaglio printing forms can be imaged using a CTP-device or a DLE-system. Typically intaglio is used for security printing (banknotes, stams, cheques, passports etc.)

  • TITANIUM - CTP
  • THORIUM - DLE
  • PLATINUM - DLE

Pad printing

Pad-printing is used for printing on uneven surfaces indirect printing over pads (works like a cushion). Pad printing is used for imaging all kinds of products (toys, remote controls, car industry, promotional articles like lighters, pens, etc.). 

  • TITANIUM - CTP
  • THORIUM - DLE
Pad Printing

Embossing

For embossing effects in (mainly) paper, hard ‘printing’ plates, sleeves or rollers are used. For sleeves and roller a DLE system is needed. Plates can be imaged with a CTP-device but only a DLE system offers the possibility to do special 3D- effects. Known products where embossing is used are book-covers and posters but also beverage cans can be embossed.
