Mounting tape offers peak performance
Adhesive tape specialist tesa is streamlining productivity in the print industry with an extension to its plate mounting tape series - tesa Softprint Secure. To meet the increasing challenges facing today's label printing industry tesa has added SNAP-ON adhesive to its already successful Softprint Secure plate mounting tape family. Softprint Secure was developed to hold down plate edges securely, even on small diameter cylinders. Now tesa engineers have developed a bonding agent, SNAP-ON adhesive, which also offers easy plate mounting and demounting characteristics.
>Offering faster plate mounting, higher output on the press and easy removal without damaging plates, Softprint Secure with SNAP-ON adhesive features low tack surface, strong bond and easy release. The plate backing snaps on the adhesive surface when mounting, and during the print run the virtual form closure holds down plate edges securely.
>Resistant to common cleaning solvents, SNAP-ON adhesive offers an extra strong bond, securing plate edges for maximum productivity. Adhesion promoters help to keep down plate edges, with no side effects when demounting as it provides an easy release, eliminating plate damage and saving downtime.
