Thermal CTP Plates Offset Printing Plates
Computer-to-plate (CTP) is an imaging technology which helps to transfer a digital image generated in a computer directly to a printing plate. Before CTP, the technology used was computer-to-film (CTF), where the image output was passed to a photographic film, and the output film was then used to make the printing plate. This process is similar to darkroom photography. The CTP technology helps to eliminate all the darkroom processes, and hence is cost effective. CTP is a much faster process compared to film-based printing, so the productivity of printing increases greatly.
Keyco Thermal CTP Plates are able to meet various requirements of high grade commercial and news paper printing. It has the advantages of speedy platemaking, high tolerance level, precise half-tone dot reproduction, good ink balance and high pressrun.

- Wide processing latitude and stable performance.-----Parameter adjustment not really required, this make the machines and chemicals easy to adapt.
- UV-Ink Capable-----This high quality thermal CTP plate is not only suitable for UV ink, but also suitable for ordinary ink printing.
- Greater resistance to chemicals and scratches
- Stable formulation design
- Precise Cutting
- Excellent hydrophilicity to optimize ink-water balance
- High sensitivity
- Excellent dot reproduction
- Longer impressions
