High Definition, Flat Top Dots &<br />
Surface Screening
Why flat top dots & Surface Screening?<br />
Compared with round shape dots, from traditionally imaged digital plates,<br />
flat top dots, with precisely reproduced surfaces, provide all the benefits<br />
linked to this geometry:<br />
• Tremendous improvement of ink transfer and laydown in solids, due to<br />
the possibility of surface screening<br />
• Extended gamut thanks to the reproduction of finest highlights<br />
• Less dot gain tolerances – “Flat Top Dots” are less impression<br />
sensitive on press – improvement of production safety<br />
• Image transfer 1:1<br />

Why nyloflex ® NExT?<br />
In addition to the general benefits of flat top dots, the nyloflex ® NExT<br />
technology has several advantages over existing technologies:<br />
• nyloflex ® NExT can easily be implemented in existing digital<br />
workflow; no additional processing steps (e.g. film lamination)<br />
• Compatible with every standard prepress software and HD Flexo<br />
• High UV emission improves reproduction of finest relief elements<br />
• Excellent repeatability because of constant UV output<br />
• Suitable for all standard digital plates (all thicknesses and formats)<br />
• nyloflex ® NExT for In-The-Round (ITR) processing in planning<br />
