The Burke Group Automates its Prepress Processes to Better Serve Customers

Respecting the environment

As part of its sustainability objectives, the Burke Group uses Apogee from Agfa (Booth C8130) as a driving force for production, and Agfa’s Energy Elite Pro no-bake, thermal plates for consistent print quality.

“XML fed by our home grown MIS drives our Apogee workflow,” explains Brad Clark, prepress manager at the Burke Group. “A large percentage of our work is processed automatically, maintaining control of all prepress processes with minimal operator touch. Because of these automations, Burke Group is able to centralize all prepress functions using a unified Apogee workflow feeding satellite plants from one location.”

Apogee offers compatibility with the latest formats, software programs, and print engines. It efficiently handles print jobs to optimize press sheets and press time.
