Abstract (en)
The present disclosure relates to a method of attaching a printing plate to a plate cylinder for a flexographic printing process comprising the steps of: a) laying the printing plate (4) onto the plate cylinder (6) so that the printing plate surrounds the plate cylinder, and so that two opposite edges (10) of the printing plate are arranged parallel to the plate cylinder's longitudinal axis (28); and b) clamping the two edges to an outer surface (12) of the plate cylinder by means of a clamping mechanism (2) comprising at least one clamp (8), each clamp having an attachment means (14) adapted to detachably attach the clamp to the plate cylinder. The present disclosure further relates to a clamp (8) for attaching a printing plate (4) to a plate cylinder (6) for a flexographic printing process, the clamp having an attachment means (14) adapted to detachably attach the clamp to the plate cylinder.
