Based on lower sleeve-making cost, the elimination of plate mounting, and the overall favorable economics long associated with flexography, a printer using ITR technology can deliver a high-quality package at a lower overall cost than gravure. From a quality standpoint, ITR imaging eliminates the dimensional image distortion and color variations associated with fitting a flat plate around a cylinder. With proper care in handling and storage, sleeves have a longer life than flat plates, and can be mounted and de-mounted multiple times. For many flexible packaging applications that carry continuous images, digital flexo sleeves can match the quality, run length, or continuous-print capabilities long associated with gravure.
