Thermal DigiPlate (TDP) System
Also on exhibit at GRAPH EXPO, is the Thermal DigiPlate (TDP) system, a processless and chemical-free CTP system for single and spot color printing. This paper based plate-making system produces plates without any processing consumables, such as chemistry, toner, liquid ink or carbon ribbons. The thermal printing head can image up to 75 plates per hour at 1200dpi. The Mitsubishi Imaging TDP system received the Technology Award from the Society of Printing Science and Technology in Japan in 2009.
