- Abstract
Lenzburg, Switzerland-based offset printing company Kromer Print AG has upgraded from a Luscher XPose! 75 to an XPose! 130 thermal platesetter. XPose! 130 includes a built-in register punch that punches the leading edge of the plate after imaging. With the new platesetter, the company could make thermal plates for the Solna web press, as well as the sheetfed machines. The platesetter was installed prior to the arrival of the new presses and it changed how work is done in the CTP department. Also wiith the investment in Plate Handling System, Kromer not only avoided adding a second platesetter operator but also eliminated the equivalent of half an existing position, saving 1.5 fulltime equivalents in all.
