ABDick Digital PlateMaster 2404 / 2508

The Digital PlateMaster 2404/2508 is a high-resolution plate and film setter that features a fully integrated PS3 Harlequin RIP and internal polyester plate processor. It is easy to use and offers excellence in performance and quality.

The DPM 2404/2508 streamlines your workflow by seamlessly blending the efficiency and precision of digital platemaking with the functionality of conventional printing. Designed specifically for landscape and portrait presses 52cm and smaller, the DPM2404/2508 is ideal for the production of all types of high quality two-up+ work.

By allowing the production of press-ready plates from your desktop computer, many steps are eliminated from the pre-press process and fewer materials are needed. There is less operator involvement; and, a digitally produced plate will be cleaner and of higher image quality.

The internal drum design provides superior image definition and repeatability while maintaining high output speeds. And, with screen rulings of 175 lpi when imaging to plate and 300 lpi to film, the DPM2404/2508 is ideally suited for a wide range of applications, including process color.

The Printers RIP includes a unique software feature for plate positioning. Plate size and gripper margin set-ups are included to ensure perfectly imaged and positioned plates, time after time. The Calibration Manager is used to fine tune the output to suit the individual characteristics of each printing press in your shop.

The DPM2404/2508 also let you output film for larger presses, longer print runs or special customer requests. Plates are processed in-line in the DPM’s completely integrated processor. Film, once imaged, is sent to a take-up cassette for off-line processing.
