The Fong Dynasty

Industry dynamics provide an advantage for Optronics. Many of the plates produced on platesetters are expensive, long-run plates. However, many commercial shops are managing shorter runs that don't require plates which can produce a half million impressions.

Optronics platesetters can be fitted with any of several wavelength choices of thermal and visible light. This allows the customer to select the best plate for his operation, and substitute imaging heads at a later date if circumstances warrant. For example, you can start with visible plates, and switch to thermal next year. You can't do that with other platesetters.
