In Mind
Are you ready to step into the world of Computer To Plate? Are you ready
to produce first generation pristine printing plates at speeds which will
eliminate the panic at deadline? Are you ready to partner with us and
take this extraordinary journey together?
All this is possible with the NewsXpress Computer To Plate imager from
alfaQuest. NewsXpress will take your print quality to a new level at a
speed and price you could previously only dream of. NewsXpress sets the
standard for all others to follow. Combined with either the Panther or
PrintExpress workflow, the NewsXpress Violet CTP meets production deadlines
in today's most demanding environments.
Wide Array of Imaging Options
NewsXpress is equipped with state-of-the-art imaging technology and uses
a highly reliable opto-mechanical system which guarantees precision plate
alignment and positioning, ensuring accurate repeatability for color registration
of ±25 microns (±0.001 inches).
NewsXpress will image 100 broadsheet plates per hour, either manually
fed or with the optional NewsMATE Autoloader. This positions the NewsXpress
as one of the fastest, smallest and most economical CTP devices on the
market today. With seven resolutions to choose from, the NewsXpress Violet
CTP meets the most demanding production requirements at a price that is
affordable.
NewsXpress' optional NewsMATE autoloader cassette holds up to 100 .012"
plates and removes slip sheets with no degradation in throughput. Slip
sheets are deposited in a bin that can be emptied without exposing the
unused plate supply. If your plates do not require slip sheets, the NewsMATE
has advanced optical sensors which will switch automatically to run without
slipsheet removal.
Multiple RIP & Workflow Choices
NewsXpress can receive bitmap data from either the Windows or OS-X based
Panther™ RIP, utilizing Adobe™ PostScript 3™ software or the alfaQuest
PrintExpress Consolidated Production Management System on Sun/Unix or
Windows workstations. The interface between the RIP and the NewsXpress
imager is either SCSI or LaserBus 2, permitting interconnection of multiple
RIPs and recorders without an external multiplexer.
With alfaQuest's wide array of CTP workflow software you are able to configure
a system specifically for your exact application, based on either the
Panther or alfaQuest PrintExpress Consolidated Production Management System.
Together we can make the dream come true.
