Laser Plates
We offer revolutionary laser plates: CO2 laser engravable Imperial Plates and YAG laser engravable Cobalt Plates. If you have a CO2 of YAG laser system with advanced software, small spot size and quality power control, our patented Imperial and Cobalt laser plate material will enable you to make plates in just a few minutes. There is no need for film positives or chemicals, the procedure is clean, fast and simple.
If you don’t have a laser system or are looking to upgrade it, you should check out Inkcups Now line of Cobalt laser engravers and plate-makers.
ICN Line of Laser Plates:
Imperial Laser Plates
Imperial laser plates can be laser etched by any C02 laser system with a minimum power of 10W. The process takes only a few minutes and provides complete depth and halftone control. Imperial laser plates are especially receptive to the etching of small dots, which makes them ideal for use in four-color process applications. The Imperial laser plate material has a life of approximately 20,000 impressions. It is steel backed, .018” thick, comes with a protective peel sheet and has an excellent surface finish for smooth doctoring.
Cobalt Laser Plates
Inkcups Now Cobalt Laser Plates are designed for use with Nd: YAG laser systems. The double-sided Cobalt laser plates have a standard thickness of .012” and are precision coated for guaranteed repeatability from plate-to-plate. The image quality that can be achieved with the Cobalt plate material is unsurpassed – the engraved image has crisp edges, extremely fine lines and the ability to hold variable halftone patterns. The extremely durable and scratch resistant coating of the Cobalt laser plates is typically good for 10,000 impressions per side.
Cobalt Steel Backed Laser Plates
An advanced alternative to Cobalt Plates. Both types are designed for use with ND: YAG laser systems. On printing machines with magnetic ink cups, the steel layer eliminates the need for intermediary plates – thus significantly simplifying production setup. In addition, Steel Backed plates are very durable in handling and highly resistant to damage from ink or debris interfering with the ink cups during printing. The Steel Backed Cobalt Plates are precision coated to a tolerance of .0001” for guaranteed repeatability from plate to plate and are typically good for 10-20,000 impressions.
