DIGITAL PLATES & PLATESETTERS -- Two Steps Forward

The latest upgrade from basysPrint may help to answer that concern, since its new ">>f generation" of imaging technology uses a stronger (850-watt) UV lamp. The "f" stand for fast, since imaging speed reportedly has been nearly doubled in part because of the lamp. These models also feature an imaging unit with an increased number of individual mirrors (nearly 1.3 million) on a Digital Micromirror Device (DMD) that directs the light to the plate. The technology is available across the manufacturer's platesetter line.
