How you can make Hot Foiling
Printing Plates quickly and at a fraction of costs getting it done out! Polydiam PPM/H-100 Photopolymer Plates. Water washable printing plates that offers you superior reproducibility.
Platemaking by processing only with water and it's quick and easy in-house plate making. The Polydiam PPM/H photopolymer plate has a variety of advantages which metal plates do not
have. PRINT onto Paper, Cloth, Leather, Plastic, Wood, ....
Main Features for Foil Stamping:
* Superior heat resistance of 180(C) It has materialized the heat resistance up to a maximum of 180C. It has
cleared the problem related to heat at the time of pressure in the ordinary stamping.
* Holding of hardness equivalent to metal plates. This is as a result of employing a hard type material in its polymer
layer, which is the base of it.
* Platemaking process is extremely simple. It is the same process as other photopolymer plates so no special additional
equipment is required.
* No pollution because it can be processed only with water. The PPM/H plate is an aqueous product and it can be
processed for plate making only with water. No chemicals are required.
* It has materialized transfer of clear foil stamping. Different from the transfer of foil stamping with a metal plate
because there is no conveyance of unnecessary heat on the contact surface with a foil if PPM/H plate is used, it can clearly reproduce spaces between letters and the like.
* It shows excellent economical characteristics and work performance. It can give various advantages in the material cost,
process time, processing with water, in house plate making, etc. therefore, it is extremely superior to metal plates with respect to the cost and work performance.
PROCESSES FOR PLATEMAKING:
- Make NEGATIVE FILM.
- EXPOSURE time: 3 - 6 minutes.
- WASHOUT time: 3 - 4 minutes in normal hot/warm water.
- Removal of Water: use a sponge roller to remove excess water.
- DRYING time: 10 - 20 minutes.
- POST-EXPOSURE: 5 - 10 minutes.
- FOIL-STAMPING: Residual heat: 160C / 15 minutes after being fixed to a heat plate on Hot Foiler / Gold Blocking Machine.
