Glatz Klischee Reports Highly Consistent Flexo Plates with XPS Crystal 5080
Austrian prepress service provider Glatz Klichee marks a technology milestone with the award winning flexo plate exposure device XPS Crystal 5080.
The Challenge:
Glatz Klichee felt that traditional light tube exposure units have reached their limits in the plate making process. There were problems with consistency or variations in exposure intensity.
The Solution:
A crucial step in stable and consistent flexo plate making is UV exposure. That is the reason why Austrian prepress service provider Glatz Klischee installed Esko’s flexo plate making exposure device, the XPS Crystal 5080.
The Benefits:
UV main and back exposure in one unit represents a milestone in flexographic plate making for Glatz Klichee. It improves plate exposure quality and ensures extremely consistent flexographic plates.
Case Study Summary
