Because it offers unmatched flexibility, ease of use and print perfection—with no compromises on quality or speed. It’s the next evolution in screening for converters ready to future-proof their Flexo production.

Velvet Screening is seamlessly integrated into PACKZ and CLOUDFLOW, enabling fully automated, native PDF prepress workflows with precise color and screening control.

No. Velvet Screening is scalable and beneficial for both large operations and smaller prepress departments looking for professional, automated screening results without complexity.

Yes. Hybrid Software offers a “Playground” environment where you can upload your own designs or use samples to explore Velvet Screening features in real time—including control over dot size and transitions.

Absolutely. With more predictable highlight behavior and fewer print defects, Velvet Screening reduces the need for press stoppages—saving ink, time, and substrate.

Yes. Velvet Screening is plate-agnostic and works with all high-resolution Flexo plates and leading CTP systems. It integrates easily into existing workflows without requiring hardware changes.

Velvet Screening delivers smoother fades and highlights, enhances plate stability on press, offers full control over the highlight range to ensure optimized results on any substrate or press.

Unlike fixed screening methods, Velvet Screening lets users independently control minimum dot size, resolution, and ruling—without being locked into one configuration. The result is smooth gradients, no visible edge artifacts, and better reproduction of fine details.

Velvet Screening is Hybrid Software’s advanced screening technology designed for flexographic printing. It softens hard edges and smooths tonal transitions using a proprietary dot-removal algorithm—delivering flawless fades and exceptional highlight control across any plate or resolution.
