Computer to Plate Systems
from Glunz & Jensen
Upgrade your PrePress area in 2011 and
start saving money! Since
1973, Glunz & Jensen has developed, manufactured, and marketed equipment for the
prepress industry. Their product range covers almost all equipment used in
prepress for offset printing in modern printing companies. The PlateWriter
series 2000, 2400, and the new 3000 models offer affordable metal plate CTP
solutions that are enviromentally friendly and use no processing chemicals.
The PlateWriter computer to metal plate systems reduces
print job
costs by eliminating film, eliminating developing and processing chemicals,
eliminating UPS Hazardous shipping charges, eliminating chemical disposal costs, eliminating special dark room space, and reducing labor costs.
Eliminate these costs and put that money back in your business. On
this page, we have an Adobe pdf. with a cost analysis for producing metal plates
on a PlateWriter system for different size presses in one to four color
configurations. Since
conventionally grained aluminum plates do not have thernal or light sensitive
coatings, the PlateWriter can be place anywhere in the shop.
No dark room required! The
PlateWriter 2000, 2400, and the new 3000 models use powerful Harlequin RIP
technology allowing your Mac or PC to print directly to it like you would a
normal desktop printer.

is pictured at the right. Click on the picture for a larger view.
The 2000 model will handle plate sizes from 8" x 11" up to 18.1" x 24" with a
maximum image area of 17" x 24" . This model does have two imaging
resolutions 1440 x 1440 and 2800 x 2800 dpi to deliver ultra high definition for
high quality printing. Plate run lengths up to 50,000 impressions!
Stochastic screening optimized for iCTP ensure moire free prints.
To use the PlateWriter 2000, place a metal
plate onto the alignment table and the PlateWriter automatically loads the plate
and uses the optical sensors to detect the lead edge and check for skew,
ensuring plate registration. Once a job is released from the RIP
workstation, the PlateWriter uses high definition inkjet technology to jet a
patented Liquid Dot chemical solution onto the plate. Once the plate exits
the print station, it is placed in the integrated finishing unit located below
the print station to finish the plates by bonding the dots to the plate surface
and automatically gumming the plate. The plates can be sent to press or
stored in a job file. No special fountain solution required so you can sse
your existing fountain solutions and inks.
The tight registration from plate to plate reduce make ready time by
reducing/eliminating horizontal/vertical/twist adjustments between print units.
