NELA Announces Large Newspaper Installation and Upgrades in its Field Service Force

The complete newspaper installation consists of five CTP systems with 1,200 plates/hour plate capacity. NELA is providing five Vision Punch/Benders (VCP) which are capable of processing four different plate sizes (48" & 54" web/singles and doubles). A sophisticated plate transportation and plate handling software system will automatically deliver plates into the press room. Plates will be sorted by seven barcode readers according to costumer specifications. The NELA NPS Software (NELA Periphery Service) will sort plates by press, product, edition, and press tower. Five NELA plate lifts will automatically deliver plates to the upper press deck.
