Greetings!
We're currently using PearlDry plate material on our UV waterless presses. The imaging engine is of a thermal variety by Luscher.
I was wondering:
1) What chemical are you using to clean the plates? (To clear the ablated material after processing) We're currently using Varn's PearlDry Plate Cleaner and find it to be satisfactory but it is quite costly and I've heard rumors of deionized (or distilled) water being used?
2) What line frequency would you consier to be the maximum? We currently run 150lpi and have experimented with up to 200lpi but are finding that 175lpi is really our maximum. Does this seem reasonable?
Thank you in advance for any advice/insight!
