Bubble Free Flexographic Plate Mounting

3M Cushion-Mount Plus Plate Mounting Tape E1715H is a teal foam tape that provides high-quality combination print. This medium firm tape is specifically designed for combination print applications. It features an air release feature that allows for bubble-free mounting, ensuring a smooth and clean plate removal process.

Recommended Applications
  • Mounting photopolymer plates to flexographic printing cylinders and sleeves
  • Used in combination, process, and solid printing processes
  • 3M sticky back tapes are designed for narrow web presses to print tags and labels

3M flexographic plate mounting tapes are highly engineered to provide a very tight caliper tolerance, allowing printers to use tape from different manufacturing lots while maintaining tight print registration. The compressible foam used in these tapes can withstand long and high-speed print runs, ensuring durability and consistent performance.

This cushion tape is specifically manufactured for 15 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/cylinder) side is designed for mounting to flexographic printing cylinders or sleeves. This design allows for easy application during mounting and clean removal when demounting.

Easy Mounting with Reduced Air Entrapment

3M air release liners feature a unique crosshatched pattern, unlike other mounting tapes that use pebbled or flat release liners. This embossed crosshatched pattern creates micro-channels in the easy mount adhesive, allowing entrapped air to escape. As a result, air bubbles disappear from between the tape and plate, as well as between the tape and sleeve or cylinder, ensuring virtually bubble-free mounting. This not only speeds up the setup process but also provides smoother surfaces for cleaner print quality and higher productivity. Additionally, the adhesive maintains tight contact with reduced edge lifting, ensuring consistent and reliable performance.
