In less than an hour, Kodak's new all-in-one plate making solution, Flexcel NX Ultra, produces ready-to-print plates in a solvent-free, VOC-free, water-based process. The US company announces this solution as the first of its kind designed for high throughput in a low-maintenance environment.<\/p>\n

A demonstration of the Ultra-NX technology<\/strong> had Kodak<\/strong> at drupa two years ago. The product is particularly suitable for applications in the paper or cardboard, labelling and flexible packaging sectors.<\/p>\n

According to the company, the new development is based on the Kodak Ultra Clean Technology<\/strong>. This solves the previous problem of \u201einconsistency\u201c with water-washable flexo plates. The complete solution consists of the Flexcel NX system for imaging, the new processing system and the equally new Flexcel NX Ultra plate in thicknesses of 1.14 and 1.70 millimetres. The imaging, washout, drying and finishing functions are combined in one system.<\/p>

High level of quality and great flexibility<\/h2>\n

The new technology is already being used by a number of Kodak customers. \u201eThe solution offers the same level of quality, but takes much less time to produce a plate. We can make changes, get new plates to press quickly and ensure that customer deadlines are met. We are very happy with the results of NX Ultra,\u201c the company quotes Matt Gauthier from\u00a0G3 Enterprises<\/strong>, a Californian manufacturer of Wine labels<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\u201eThe operators of our flexo presses really appreciate the Kodak plates. They can see the difference in the halftone dots and how everything just looks so much cleaner,\u201c praises Rob Anderson, Head of Production and Planning at the IGT print shop<\/strong> in Florida.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"With the complete package \u201eFlexcel NX Ultra\u201c from Kodak, ready-to-print flexographic printing plates can be produced with solvent- and VOC-free processing.","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":17452,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"__cvm_playback_settings":[],"__cvm_video_id":"","rank_math_description":"","rank_math_focus_keyword":"","rank_math_title":"","csco_display_header_overlay":false,"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","csco_page_load_nextpost":"","csco_post_video_location":[],"csco_post_video_location_hash":"","csco_post_video_url":"","csco_post_video_bg_start_time":0,"csco_post_video_bg_end_time":0,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[28,114,113],"tags":[43,51],"class_list":{"0":"post-17447","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-aus-dem-magazin","8":"category-aus-den-unternehmen-news","9":"category-produkte","10":"tag-aus-den-unternehmen","11":"tag-verpackungsdruck-und-veredelung","12":"cs-entry","13":"cs-video-wrap"},"acf":[],"vimeo_video":null,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17447","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17447"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17447\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/17452"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17447"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17447"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17447"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
