CDI Crystal Quartz Edition
Market-Leading Flexo Print Quality
Produce the most accurate and best quality plates, reduce ink usage to deliver the absolute best quality final print.
A Whole New Standard for Flexo Quality
The CDI Crystal Quartz Edition features a groundbreaking dual optics system that merges the enhanced optics of the CDI Crystal with the most recent Quartz Optics technology. This results in a significant advancement in flexo plate imaging speed and print quality.
The CDI Crystal Quartz Edition Range

How It Works
Quartz optical technology enables users to image higher frequency surface structures at 2000lpi (Q-Cells) with an imaging resolution of 4000ppi. Imaging at 4000ppi is nearly double the current industry standard, and microcells engraved in the solid ink areas at a 2000lpi resolution is proven to significantly boost ink transfer.
A Dual Optics System that Supports Both Legacy and Forward-Looking Flexo Platemaking
Compatible with Solvent and Water-Based Inks
The Esko CDI Crystal Quartz Edition is compatible with solvent and water-based inks – delivering an increased density of up to 0.7 for water-based inks, which are becoming increasingly popular due to their sustainability benefits.
Flexography Print Quality that Matches Gravure
In flexible packaging, gravure is still widely considered as delivering the best in print quality. CDI Crystal Quartz gives printers a way to match that print quality in flexography.
