Abstract
An ink image is formed on the side of a gauze of a screen master by discharging ink by an ink discharge apparatus, and collected visible rays or infrared rays are irradiated onto the ink image to heat the ink. Then, a thermoplastic resin film is perforated to form a plate making image corresponding to the ink image. The minute ink drops discharged from the ink discharge apparatus are held inside minute opening portions (pixels) of fibers configuring the gauze, and are put on the thermoplastic synthetic resin film bent by gravity. Thermosensitive perforation is carried out in this state, and thus a high-definition plate making image corresponding to the image configured using the ink drops in units of pixels can be obtained.
Claims2
A plate making method of a screen master formed by pasting a gauze and a thermoplastic resin film to each other, the method comprising the steps of:
- discharging ink by an ink discharge apparatus to form an ink image on the side of the gauze of the screen master;
- and
- melting the thermoplastic resin film by heating the ink after irradiating collected visible rays or infrared rays onto the ink image from the side of the gauze to form a plate making image corresponding to the ink image.
