Thermolite Plates


Agfa Thermolite is a short-run, processless plate for on-press and off-press imaging. This innovative thermal digital plate does away with the inconvenience and potential variations of chemical processing and provides a more efficient way of creating plates. Whether you choose on-press or off-press imaging, Thermolite increases your efficiency — while providing high-resolution (200 lpi) results. For applications of 20,000 to 30,000 impressions, Thermolite offers an innovative, reliable solution.

Optimized for excellent press performance

Thermolite is negative working and uses Agfa's proven grained and anodized aluminium substrate to provide the best results on press. It has the widest possible press latitude and eliminates the need for special inks and fountain solutions.

With Thermolite, you can be confident that you will get excellent on-press performance — as well as the convenience of processless technology. In addition, because Thermolite is non-ablative, there's no need for a vacuum extraction system or any other special handling or treatment.
