This system is designed for maximum ease-of-use to streamline your entire platemaking operation while delivering the speed, quality and performance you need to meet customer demands. Its compact size and ability to operate in normal room conditions allow this CTP unit to fit into any environment. Handling and imaging plates in normal room lighting eliminates the costs and special provisions required for safe-light and darkroom conditions. Chemistry-Free Platemaking Vector CTP is a chemistry-free system. Plates are simply cleaned with water after imaging. Besides eliminating processing chemistry, Freedom plates require no baking, special cleaning fluids or gumming for use, resulting in less waste material and reducing the environmental impact of your operation. Freedom plates – the lowest priced thermal CTP plates on the market – are ideally suited for the short-run market, handling run lengths up to 25,000. Consistent, Repeatable Thermal Imaging Thermal imaging technology brings new freedom to the CTP workflow, delivering sharp, well-defined and highly repeatable images. Plates are free of the inconsistencies in image quality associated with emulsion variances, processor condition, chemical aging, exposure problems and environmental changes. Exceptional On-Press Performance In addition to enhancing productivity in the prepress department, Vector CTP also improves productivity in the pressroom. Freedom plates perform extremely well on press, delivering all the familiar performance characteristics and stability of conventional aluminum plates. A unique surface structure on the plate results in exceptionally fast makeready, greater ink/water latitude and excellent durability. In addition, Freedom plates accommodate a wide range of industry standard inks and fountain solutions with less chemical consumption on press than conventional offset plates.
