KPG also plans to launch its first "no process" plate, called Thermal Direct. Targeted for small- to medium-sized printers, the thermal (800-850nm) plate is said to generate no debris during imaging or on-press and is rated for 75,000 impressions. In addition, the company will introduce an entry-level CTP system based on the Screen PT-4100 platesetter and a ROOM workflow.
