Abstract

Methods for producing cylindrical flexographic printing elements, the cylindrical flexographic printing elements having a relief-forming layer, and the relief-forming layer being produced by successive application of a plurality of layers of a relief-forming material in liquid melt form, preferably of a photopolymerizable material in liquid melt form, to a rotating cylindrical sleeve in a continuous process.
