basysPrint UV-setter 850 - Stand E117

basysPrint will be showing its manual UV-Setter 850 series solution for conventional plate exposure.  The success of the basysPrint UV-Setter family, of which over 200 units were sold in 2010, confirms advantages of combining the latest in CtP technology and the wide choice of proven conventional printing plates for cost efficiency, quality, modularity, and sustainability.

With ever stronger diodes, proven but continuously improving DMD-based exposure technology, and superb Autofocus quality, the UV-Setter engines lead the way as high precision solutions for professional platemaking.

The quality approach is sustained by the characteristics of UV-plates, which include: stability and maintenance of overall process offering quality; wide processingtoleranceswith constant reliable output; high chemistry latitude in the processor (3 x longer than digital plates); high run length stability, even without baking; and compatibility with UV-inks.

The basysPrint approach allows users freechoice of plate types and plate suppliers, and UV plates still have a good price advantage over other CTP plates.  With the basysPrint UV-Setter 400 and 800 series, an existing manual installation can be upgraded to become a fully automatic system at a later stage, with either a single- or multi-cassette plate loading system.  Light modules containing the latest generation violet diodes can be multiplied to enhance exposure speed: the more light modules, the faster the plate exposure.

Ecology friendly processing chemistry is used.  It is a low alkali, soap like solution that can be poured down the drain. There is no contamination with heavy metals, silicones or other hazardous components. The chemistry consumption is very low (20-50 ml per m²).  In addition, the UV-Setter system consumes little energy, typically 2KWH versus 8,3 KWH with thermo plates.
