Even though digital printing equipment has garnered its fair share of headlines lately, flexo innovations have not slowed down in the least. From printing press manufacturers to substrate suppliers, product development has reached a fever pitch for flexo, which is responsible from some 90% of printed labels.
To meet demand, Avery Dennison Performance Tapes has launched a new line of mounting tapes. The company’s Fas-Flex flexographic plate mounting tape products have been designed to improve the performance of label printers. The product line includes FF 8615 S, FF 8615 M, and FF 8615 H.
According to Chris Blackwell, product manager, Print and Packaging at Avery Dennison, Fas-Flex provides printers with the ability to obtain high print quality with low dot gain while also allowing the operator to reposition the mounting tape on the plate side and cylinder side for up to one hour, thus allowing fine tuning and remounting. These products have been engineered to make cleanup less intensive for press operators or plate mounters, with low adhesive residue.
