Manufactured to be a Pressman’s Plate
Both sheetfed and web pressrooms are under tremendous pressure to maximize efficiency and reduce waste. One plate can’t satisfy all conditions, but for the commercial, publication, or offset packaging printer of today, Kodak TRILLIAN SP Plates come pretty close. For the pressroom manager, the Kodak TRILLIAN SP Thermal Plate offers the flexibility to cover the range of applications, conditions, and print run lengths demanded by today’s marketplace.
Keep the presses rolling…Kodak TRILLIAN SP Plates can help improve press uptime. The plate was designed to cover virtually all commercial, publication, and offset packaging pressroom applications. For instance, the plate’s unique technology makes it durable even in the most challenging press conditions, such as UV, EB, and metallic inks, alcohol substitutes, and aggressive washes. It can also be used with a variety of challenging substrates. Using the same plate for many different applications makes the pressman’s job easier, saves time on press, and simplifies the prepress operation to improve total efficiency.
Keep the jobs in house…Although average print runs are generally declining, printers need a single plate that can handle the large runs while still being profitable on the short ones. The Kodak TRILLIAN SP Plate’s long run lengths contribute to uptime by reducing the need to re-plate to finish a job, while reducing cost and complexity by eliminating the need to bake. The TRILLIAN SP Plate can deliver unbaked run lengths of over 500,000 impressions, even in harsh chemical environments. With optional postbaking, run lengths can reach over 1 million impressions.
On-press performance is key…Consistent print quality is important to printers. The profitability of a job can decrease dramatically if constant adjustments need to be made on press or makereadies take too long. The TRILLIAN SP Plate offers excellent on-press robustness and improved stability throughout the run. Robust handling, including excellent scratch resistance, helps ensure that the plates make it to press in top quality.
Reducing waste means higher profits…
Reducing waste is a key factor both for reducing costs and also environmental impact, while improving overall efficiency. The TRILLIAN SP Plate offers excellent roll up, restarts, and ink and water balance, which help printers reduce waste during makeready. The long run lengths and chemical durability reduce the cost, time, and waste associated with re-plating a job mid-run.
