Bubble Free Flexographic Plate Mounting

3M Cushion-Mount Plus Plate Mounting Tape L1515 is a high-quality purple foam tape that is specifically designed for medium combination print. It features an air release technology that ensures bubble-free mounting. This double coated foam tape is equipped with a plate side adhesive technology that allows for easy removal in the presence of ink contaminants on flexographic print plates.

Recommended Applications
  • Mounting photopolymer plates to flexographic printing cylinders and sleeves
  • Used in combination, process, and solid printing processes
  • Designed for narrow web presses to print tags and labels

3M flexographic plate mounting tapes are meticulously engineered to provide printers with very tight caliper tolerance, enabling them to use tape from different manufacturing lots while maintaining tight print registration. The compressible foam of the tape is capable of withstanding long and high-speed print runs.

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 ensures easy application during mounting and clean removal when demounting.

Easy Application with Reduced Air Entrapment

3M air release liners feature a unique crosshatched pattern, unlike other mounting tapes that use a pebbled or flat release liner. The embossed crosshatched pattern creates microchannels in the easy mount adhesive, allowing entrapped air to escape. This results in virtually bubble-free mounting as air bubbles disappear between the tape and plate, as well as between the tape and sleeve or cylinder. The smoother surfaces provided by this technology enable faster setup, cleaner print quality, and higher productivity. Additionally, the adhesive maintains tight contact with reduced edge lifting.

Keep the Presses Running and Customers Coming Back

For decades, 3M products have been trusted and utilized in printing plants to improve the quality of work and enhance efficiency. With 3M Cushion-Mount Plus Plate Mounting Tape L1515, printers can achieve bubble-free mounting, tight print registration, and easy application and removal, ultimately leading to improved print quality and customer satisfaction.
