Official Board Markets, August, 2006

Container Graphics Corp. (CGC), Cary, N.C., is introducing a new tension strap product for mounting plates to the print cylinder that addresses converters' needs. CGC will market the product under the StretchLoc[TM] Tension Straps trade name. The product is patent pending.

The straps are shipped with the printing plate and are designed to stay with the plate in storage to make setup fast the first time and each time the plate is used. They stay permanently attached in use and in storage.

The new two hook/end tension belt concept is available in seven color-coded, fixed lengths. The new strap has a J hook end for attaching it to a plate mount wail edge slot, and a 45 degree hook end for attaching it to the press plate cylinder latch slot.
