Frequently Asked Questions

What is a thermal CTP plate and how is it developed?

A thermal CTP plate is a printing plate imaged using infrared laser energy from a thermal CTP platesetter. The plate is then developed in a CTP developer, which removes the non-image coating, leaving the image ready for offset printing. Triwill Group’s CTP developer is formulated for thermal CTP plate processing.

What is the difference between thermal CTP and violet CTP?

Thermal CTP systems use infrared lasers to image plates using heat, while violet CTP systems use violet (405nm) lasers to image photosensitive plates using light. Both technologies produce high-quality CTP plates for commercial offset printing but require appropriate developers. Triwill Group supplies CTP developer compatible with both thermal and violet plate systems.

How to make a CTP plate in commercial offset printing?

CTP plate making involves imaging the plate on a CTP platesetter using digital artwork data, developing the imaged plate in a CTP developer, and cleaning and finishing the plate before mounting on the press. Triwill Group supplies CTP developer and plate cleaners for both thermal and violet CTP systems.

What are the different types of CTP plates?

The main CTP plate types are thermal CTP plates (imaged by heat) and violet CTP plates (imaged by violet light). Triwill Group supplies CTP developer compatible with both thermal and violet plate types. Contact our team for guidance on the most appropriate developer for your CTP system.
