Frequently Asked Questions

What is a CTP plate and how is it used in offset printing?

A CTP plate is a printing plate imaged directly from digital data using a CTP platesetter, eliminating the need for film in the plate making process. CTP plates are developed using a CTP developer and cleaned with a specialist CTP plate cleaner to maintain plate quality throughout their production life.

What is the difference between CTP plates and conventional PS plates?

CTP plates are imaged directly from digital data on a CTP platesetter, while conventional PS plates require exposure through a film. CTP plates offer better image quality, faster plate making, and are the standard in modern commercial offset printing. Triwill Group supplies CTP developers and plate cleaners for commercial CTP plate processing.

What are the different types of CTP plates?

The main types of CTP plates are thermal CTP plates (imaged by heat using an infrared laser) and violet CTP plates (imaged using a violet laser). Both types require appropriate CTP developers and plate cleaners. Triwill Group supplies CTP plate cleaners compatible with both thermal and violet CTP plates.

What is a plate cleaner used for in commercial printing?

A plate cleaner in commercial offset printing is used to remove ink residues and oxidation from printing plates between print runs and during job changeovers.
