Asahi’s first FlatTop plate out of the box including CleanPrint
The Asahi AFP™-BFTK 170 plate is the only FlatTop plate in the market that features premium CleanPrint, enabling kiss-touch printing pressure and a clean print. Lighter printing pressure brings constant repeatability of printing quality during the production run as well as longer plate life. This characteristic is achieved with a unique Asahi-engineered photopolymer chemistry that reduces the surface energy of the printing plate and enables better ink transfer to the substrate during printing.
AFP™-BFTK plate fits seamlessly into existing customer environments without the need for additional equipment investments or process changes
