CTP--What's New In Blue?

In fact, Citiplate's family of high-speed UV plates includes types perfectly suited to imaging by any UV means—analog or digital. That includes all present digital-UV platesetters, as well as emerging violet laser diode platesetters that loom large in printing's future.

At present, Citiplate is now the only U.S. manufacturer offering a broad choice of silverless high-performance plates having speed characteristics that match UV CTP and violet laser diode CTP platesetter energy levels, as well as all film-based platemaking methods. Citiplate's family of AQUA LHP System high-performance UV plates actually number four plate groups having unique degrees of UV-exposure-sensitivity. These groups, respectively, require: 40 percent; 20 percent; 4 percent; or 2 percent of the UV energy needed to expose an ordinary UV-sensitive plate.
