Hybrid Software Launches Tectonics, a New Flexo Production Solution

April 1, 2020 Off By Sebastian Reisig

Hybrid Software announces Tectonics, an innovative new flexo production solution. Tectonics is a brand-new application from Hybrid Software that saves flexo plate material and optimizes the use of your flexo CTP devices. The software allows flexo customers to automatically optimize the layout of their jobs, reduce waste and optimize CTP usage, according to Hybrid Software. As a result, the software has a typical return-on-investment within the first six months. 

Tectonics works flexibly with any brand of plate and CTP, and in 2020 Hybrid has installed the software already with three customers across the globe.

“With digital printing taking central stage in many technology and product announcements, people tend to forget that flexo printing is still a hugely relevant printing process in our industry,” Nick De Roeck, CTO of Hybrid explained. “The flexo printing process is well established, and suitable for many packaging applications. Many of our customers create or process flexo plates for their customers. Our growth the last couple of years gave us access to many great companies doing a lot of work with flexo.”

Hybrid believes that the flexo space is in dire need of innovation.

“We identified a true lack of innovation in the flexo space, and we believe that software could help these customers become more efficient and productive,” said De Roeck, “With Tectonics, we listened to our customers, and acted upon their input to offer a new approach to creating and optimizing flexo.”
