THP-99 Positive Thermal CTP Plate for Medium-Long Run.
Peak Sensitivity at 830nm Infrared Diode Laser. No Preheat Needed.

Possible factors of expediting the aging of developer

Developer temperature is too high or the temperature control is out of control.

Water in conduits and filters were not completely released.

After the rinse during process, water remained on the plate and backflow to the processing tank.

Insufficient replenishment in motionless status. Oxidation speed faster than replenishment speed.

Insufficient replenishment in dynamic status. Oxidation speed faster than replenishment speed.

Not maintain circulating condition

Processor is left unused for a long time

Replenishment pump is out of work

No lid on processing tank or original developer bottle expedites oxidation of developer

Run out of replenisher without replenishing

 

The most common problems happened during processing

Temperature is out of control and cannot reduce it.

Blocked filter causes bad circulation system.

Sludge on roller in water rinse sector. Developer contamination causes developer weaker.

Plate is not handed horizontally when it loads into Processor.

Sludge in the 1st roller results in scratch on plate surface and makes image remove easily

Processor brush and roller pressure are uneven, results in feather mark.

Water washing pressure is not enough or blocked, makes Finisher not attach to plate well, results in image removing.

Weaker developer contributes to laser mark

Roller speed is not simultaneous, which caused bending mark on plate surface under processing

Platesetter parameter setting does not comply with actual measure.

 

Recommendations of baking plate

Oven temperature: 225±5℃

Oven baking time: 5~10 minutes

 

Recommendations of handling plate

Carrying and unpacking plates should be handled with gloves.

Carry plate from case vertically to avoid bending.

Wear mast to avoid any breath moisture.
