Patented Virtual Drum Technology

The SpeedSetter series utilizes a reliable 5mW red laser diode that produces a small spot size (10 microns at 2400 dpi) for clean consistent screens and sharp lines across the entire width of the page. The patented virtual drum design delivers internal drum quality and accuracy (.0005" repeatability over 4 plates) at a fraction of the cost of traditional internal drum designs.

Compact, Efficient, Modular Systems

Requiring no special electrical service or plumbing, SpeedSetter CTP systems take up less than two square yards of floor space. The hinged plate processor quickly rolls out of the way for easy media changes and maintenance.

Maximum Platemaking Versatility

SpeedSetter CTP systems, including an in-line processor, give you the freedom to image a variety of visible red-sensitive polyester plates and films. The plate templating feature allows you to specify plate characteristics such as header, gripper, image size, and tail length to suit a variety of presses. This ensures that your plates are imaged, processed and cut to the desired lengths. Need the option to image film? Simply switch out the plate media, adjust the density setting and you are ready to go. Use the available take-up cassette to take your imaged film to your film processor.
