Today is the world of technology. Computers and printers have taken the place of traditional medium of writing. Printers are used to keep the records and maintain the documents in written form. The main component of any printer would be a printing plate. A Printing Plate is basically used to transfer ink from the rollers that continuously move over it and then onto paper.

Printing plate is made of aluminum which allows water to stick to it, thus making it hydrophilic in nature. But the printing ink is oil based, which means it will not stick to the surface of the plate. Thus to print, a special image which is oil loving is inserted on the plate so that it will attract the ink and therefore, the image will be printed.

As any other equipment, a printing plate can wear-out over a certain period of time and can lose its special nature of being water loving, depending on the type of plate used. You can also extend the life of the plate by choosing a post-bake option that makes the plate more durable.

The most common type of printing which is used in the world at present is offset printing, which uses Printing Plate for the process of printing. For high speed offset printing, a thicker plate is required.
