Press-ready aluminium plates - no chemical processing
The PlateWriter™2000 is the industry’s first inkjet Computer-to-Plate system capable of producing press-ready aluminum plates without the use of chemical processing. The PlateWriter™2000 inkjet Computer-to-Plate system is an innovative technology that sets new standards in the cost, flexibility and speed of offset printing for small to medium format printing.

Affordability – Significantly lower investment than the cost of current, laser-based plate imaging systems

Environmentally friendly – No disposal of processing chemicals into the waste stream eliminating disposal costs

High quality output – FM or stochastic screening capable of emulating 175 conventional line screening

The PlateWriter™ 2400 is an addition to Glunz & Jensen’s acclaimed iCtP range of Computer-to-Plate systems, which produces press-ready aluminum plates without the use of chemical processing.

The PlateWriter™ 2400’s inkjet Computer-to-Plate system uses an innovative technology that sets new standards in the cost, flexibility and speed of offset printing for small to medium format printers. The PlateWriter™ jets a patented Liquid Dot™ chemical solution on to nonphotosensitive aluminum printing plates.

The imaged plates are manually fed through a plate-finishing unit that dries the plates and bonds the liquid dots to the plate surface. The platefinishing unit has a built-in gumming station to finish the plates and protect them from damage before going to press.
