FIELD: process engineering.
SUBSTANCE: proposed method of producing plate for intaglio printing consists in programmed engraving of the plate made by computer-aided engraving tool. Artwork depth pattern is produced for, at least, a portion of bonds. Note here that said pattern comprises data on 3D elements with data on engraving depth in said plate. Artwork reference depth pattern is produced for plate to be engraved. Note here that said pattern consists of assemblage of repetitions on said artwork pattern complying with that of lines and columns and comprises data on position of said repetitions in the plate plane. Then, plate is engraved to comply with produced reference depth pattern.
EFFECT: higher quality of plates, reduced production time and costs.
