English to German Tech/Engineering Printing & Publishing
This is a company that produces print products. The document talks about print plates, pressroom, printing equipment"

***Plate Lift*** Got you Down? There is a solution!
Are you still experiencing ***plate lift***? Is it causing delays, damaged plates and rework in your pressroom? Well, there is a new plate technology you will want to check out.

...technology anchors your plate edges firmly with a non-tacky surface, keeping your plates in place as well as easy manual repositioning. Optimize your plate mounting efficiency with the flexibility to adhere and remove plates for accurate placement.

I am not sure if I put the question in the right category. I couldn't quite figure it out.

Any suggestions?

Ablösungen der Druckplatte

Um Ablösungen der Druckplatte bei kleineren
Zylinderdurchmessern und längeren
Verweilzeiten zwischen Montage und Druck
zu vermeiden, sollte die Druckplatte mit
einer dehnfähigen Polyethylenfolie umwickelt
werden.

In order to avoid plate lifting with small
diametric cylinders and longer hold-up
times between mounting and printing, the
printing plate should be wrapped with a flexible polyethylene film.

I think what it means is that the ends of the plate become loose/lift thus rendering the print useless
