What are CTP metal plates?
CTP metal plates (Computer to Plate) are used in offset printing to transfer a digital image onto the printing surface. Unlike traditional methods —which relied on films or negatives— CTP plates are imaged directly from digital files, removing intermediate steps and improving the final print quality.
