Translation of "Plattenbelichtung" in English

Thus, the accurate functioning of the plate exposure can especially be checked.

There are many different ways for exposing plates.

Following customer approval, plate imaging is performed using the same RIP.

There followed by a live demonstration of plate imaging by the Creo specialists.

They are also used to adapt the tone values during plate imaging and adaptation of ICC profiles.

There are many different ways for exposing plates. There are an abundance of different exposure systems and processing techniques.

Direct Imaging designates a technology in which plate exposure is integrated in the printing machine.

The big advantage of this technology is that it eliminates the disruptive effect of oxygen from the plate exposure process.

This requires, of course, a progressive quality control system structure, in which the analysis of the original can be carried out in connection with the systematic inking system deviations before the plate exposure.

Smart'n'Easy Net is a program, which controls the complete workflow, starting at the PDF file handling to the point of exposing.

What's special about Prinect is that, to ensure the resulting print product is always identical regardless of the press and paper, Prinect stores all kinds of calibration characteristics for platesetting in the RIP.

Instead, the printing plates, themselves, can also be exposed in a plate exposer or directly in a digital press, into which a unit for exposing plates is integrated.

With printing orders in the so-called Direct Imaging Printing Technology, which integrates the plate exposure into the printing machine and realizes the exposure by infrared lasers directly on the impression cylinder, the environment is relieved.

That is possible because no film or platesetting costs are incurred in the case of digital print in contrast to offset print.

Plate exposure characteristics are monitored regularly using grey scale wedges measured densitometrically on a test print off the Performa.

By way of a product comparison, Anja Hagedorn outlined the strengths of the individual press models: The small-format Genius 52 with its compact design, simple handling and maintenance, and thus fast makeready and high cost-saving potential for the user, the 74 Karat with fully automated process sequences, integrated plate imaging, a digital workflow for high productivity and low personnel costs, and new opportunities to extend the company's range of services, and the unit-based press Rapida 74 G with its variability regarding the number of printing units and a broad diversity of inline finishing options.

A new system for filmless plate exposure was presented for the first time, a new hall connecting the printroom with the binding department was officially opened, and at the same time a new press, an eight-colour KBA Rapida 105 with perfecting unit for 4-over-4 production, was taken into operation.

These include scanning, data processing, retouching, image processing, layout and – depending on the printing process used – plate setting or computer-to-plate (CTP) for offset printing and electromechanical or laser engraving for gravure printing.

Applying state-of-the-art technology, we set a very high benchmark to guarantee a trouble-free workflow from data delivery to image setting.

The alternative is a soft proofing system that works from TIFF/G4 1-bit data - the same data that is used to image the plate.

For the following reasons, it is not recommended to adjust FM screened plates to the aim values used for AM screening on the respective paper types:

At our company, the plate exposure is done in a purely digital form – i.e. the digital file is exposed directly onto the plate (CtP = Computer to Plate).

Midway through 2009, GEWA Etiketten GmbH switched its prepress for self-adhesive labels from the conventional process with films to computer-to-plate (CtP) exposure.

The measured values and the nominal values are used as inputs for the process calibration of the utility program in the "Output Manager".Note: In order for the process calibration for negative exposures must work properly, both in the application, the utility and VAPP in the exposure mode can be selected "negative".The digital test strips to check the exposure plate are located in the "dens check" and then in the appropriate folder with the name of the manufacturer of printing plates.
