PRODUCT FAQ
-
Certainly! Here are three questions and answers about the 3M™ Cushion-Mount™ Plus Plate Mounting Tape E1920S.
Is the Pink color of the tape just for aesthetics, or does it serve a specific purpose?
-
The Pink color of the tape is actually not just for looks; it serves as an easy visual identifier to help ensure accurate alignment during plate mounting applications.
Can I reuse this Plate Mounting Tape after removing it from a surface?
-
While our Cushion-Mount™ Plus tapes are designed for permanent bonding in most cases, if removed carefully, they may still retain some adhesion for repositioning purposes.
What makes the E1920S variant suitable specifically for certain types of printing applications?
-
The E1920S variant with its 20 mil thickness offers excellent cushioning properties that can help optimize print quality by absorbing shocks and vibrations during high-speed printing processes.
3M Cushion-Mount Plus Plate Mounting Tape E1920S is a high-quality pink foam tape designed for combination print applications. This light-medium tape offers excellent performance in combination, process, and solid printing processes. Its unique air release feature ensures bubble-free mounting, while its resistance to lifting on press allows for easy and clean plate removal.
Recommended Applications- Mounting photopolymer plates to flexographic printing urethane sleeves
- Used in combination, process, and solid printing processes
- Designed for wide-web presses to print film or paper for the flexible packaging industry
3M flexographic plate mounting tapes are engineered to provide tight caliper tolerance, allowing printers to use tape from different manufacturing lots while maintaining tight print registration. The compressible foam construction of the tape ensures durability and stability during long and high-speed print runs.
This cushion tape is specifically manufactured for 20 mil applications and is constructed with engineered acrylic adhesives. The adhesive on the linered (plate) side of the tape is designed for mounting photopolymer plates, while the adhesive on the non-linered (sleeve) side is designed for mounting to flexographic printing urethane sleeves. This ensures easy application during mounting and clean removal when demounting.
Easy Mounting with Reduced Air Entrapment
3M air release liners feature a crosshatched pattern, unlike other mounting tapes that use pebbled or flat release liners. The embossed crosshatched pattern creates unique microchannels in the easy mount adhesive, allowing entrapped air to escape. This results in virtually bubble-free mounting, as air bubbles disappear from between the tape and plate, as well as between the tape and sleeve or cylinder. The smoother surfaces created by this process enable faster setup, cleaner print quality, and higher productivity. Additionally, the adhesive maintains tight contact with reduced edge lifting.
