CTP--Hot, Hotter, Hottest!!!

Printing Developments (PDI) is making the transition to thermal CTP smooth for Cicero, IL-based E&D Web, installing the company's first completely automated processing system—including automatic transport and chemical replenishing systems.

PDI reports that, once PDI's conventional or, in the case of thermal work, PRISMA plates are loaded in the Scitex Lotem 800V at E&D Web, there will be no need for personnel at E&D Web to handle the plates, until they come through the processor. Whether using conventional or PRISMA plates, E&D prepress personnel can use the same processor and chemistry, helping E&D make a smooth transition to a full-digital workflow.
