Advanced, next-generation CtP system featuring industry-leading technology and productivity

In recent years, as printing companies seek to improve the production efficiency of printed materials, the international market has shown a growing requirement for the use of large-format presses capable of easily handling multiple jobs in a single run. The need has affected both sheet-fed and web offset presses. In response to this trend, PlateRite Ultima 24000N series offer significantly more compact dimensions than the existing models with even greater productivity and cost performance.

Industry-leading productivity enables faster turnaround

Use of the latest GLV-equipped imaging heads creates significant improvements in the optical system, producing more uniform distribution of light source. A high-precision auto-focus mechanism also allows the output of our proprietary Spekta 2 hybrid screening. The Z model is equipped with a 1,024-channel imaging head that enables the production of an impressive 35 plates per hour*. The S model also features a 512-channel head with a throughput of up to 24 plates per hour*.
* When using 1,652 x 1,325 mm plates

Autoloader systems boost press operating ratios Skid autoloader SA-L24000SKID
The newly released skid autoloader, SA-L24000SKID, enables to set a pallet with maximum 600 plates* directly to the system.
Laser beams inside the skid autoloader allow an operator to set a pallet simply without any technique. Skid autoloader system also reduces the labor and eliminates the risk of damaging plates during　preparation.
*For 0.3 mm thickness plates



Multi-cassette autoloader MA-L40000
The MA-L40000 is an autoloader that can supply media as needed from any of its multiple cassettes, each of which can be loaded with a different size or type of media. It features four cassettes, and can supply up to 300 plates* automatically.
Also, it enables extended continuous operation when using plates of the same size.

Advanced support boosts system reliability Users can easily monitor and control their system from a remote location via the Web browser or e-mail. An external PC can also be effectively used as a substitute operation panel to manage CtP settings. E-mails are automatically forwarded to a service center, providing an in-depth understanding of the operation status of the equipment. This information can be used during maintenance and periodic inspections to ensure the system remains in optimal condition at any time.
