MacDermid Expands Clean Plate Technology Portfolio MacDermid Graphics Solutions recently expanded its Patented Clean Plate Technology portfolio with the addition of Digital MCP. Digital MCP is a hard durometer, round top dot plate featuring MacDermid’s Patented Clean Plate Technol- ogy. Digital MCP is the newest photopolymer plate for flexo printing to build off MacDermid’s digital plate chemistry. The combination of digital plate chemistry and clean plate technology is uniquely designed to print cleaner on press, reduce ink build-up in-between dots and reverses, and require fewer press stops for plate cleaning.The reduction in physical cleaning require- ments extends the plate life of Digital MCP, according to MacDermid. Digital MCP is optimized for superior processing in MacDermid’s LAVA thermal system, according to the company.As with other MacDermid digital plates, Dig- ital MCP allows for processing in conventional sol- vent wash or thermal systems.When flat-top dots are desired, Digital MCP can be imaged via MacDermid’s award-winning LUX Lamination process to achieve flat-top dots.
