The AFP™-SF/DSF from Asahi is a medium hardness printing plate that sets new quality standards for printing results. It has been developed to achieve good highlights combined with outstanding ink transfer on all substrates. The optimized ratio of solid area coverage and print quality of the highlight dots produces good ink coverage with low dot gain in the mid-tone range as well as brilliant highlights at maximum printing speed. This plate is therefore ideal for flexible packaging printing on film and paper with solvent and water-based inks.
