ASAHI AFP-SF FLEXO PLATE
The flexo plate for top-quality printing with excellent ink coverage
The AFP-SF is a conventional flexographic printing plate, which has been newly developed to meet customers’ severest demands for high quality printing such as superfine detail and/or excellent ink coverage of solids on any of a wide variety of materials.
The AFP-SF plate is most suitable for use in quality flexography, flexible packaging, tag & labels, paper and pre-print.
The flexibility of the AFP-SF plate ensures a very good lay-down of plate on cylinder when mounting.
