Heidelberg Press Conference - Heidelberg's New CTP Solution

The DingSheng plate making machine unveiled at the Beijing International Printing Exhibition. Currently, the increase in the number of jobs and the shortening of the cycle are the trends in the printing market. The presses of large and medium-sized companies have two or three shifts per day. As a result, the supply of printing plates is increasing. The more problematic. The market demand is calling for a set of efficient, reliable, and high-quality prepress solutions. At the Beijing International Printing Exhibition, Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AG (Heidelberg) made its powerful top winning series of computer-to-plate (CTP) machines available to the public. Both automatic and semi-automatic models can help printing companies make full use of all potential and ensure the reliability of their production. Dingsheng 74 - Simplicity and Efficiency Dingsheng 74 Designed to meet the needs of four-up printing, it brings the key benefits of CTP technology to commercial printing companies: faster production, more maneuverability, lower raw material consumption and labor costs . The Dingsheng 74 is designed for use on four-up (28-inch) format jobs. The combination of mature drum technology and a 32-channel laser diode system enables top wins to operate at extremely high speeds. The compact, semi-automatic standard model is highly productive, with 17 plates per hour (resolution 2400 dpi). If the customer has a higher demand, an automatic plate feeder can be installed to achieve full automatic production. With the upper version, there is no need to manually interfere with the sustainable production of 100 plates. When the printing plate is taken out, the system automatically removes the backing paper and sucks and fixes it with vacuum suction so as not to scratch the printing plate. To enhance ease of operation and increase productivity, two sets of optional components are provided for semi-automatic and fully-automatic models: coordinated online punching machines and different types of register punching systems (for Heidelberg and user-defined Plate format). The format of the printing plate can be flexibly selected in order to adapt to different format printing machines. Dingsheng 74 is available in photo sizes of 467 x 394 mm and 324 x 492 mm up to 830 x 645 mm plates with four resolutions from 1200 dpi to 4000 dpi. This CTP platemaking machine is based on the mature thermal photo-taking technology, which features accurate halftone dots and long plate life. Dingsheng 102 brings you top-notch, fully-automated models. For those high-volume printing companies who are looking for high-energy, high-volume external drum platesetters for offset printing, Dingsheng 102 is their best choice. This fully automatic model is equipped with a multi-cartridge versioner and can produce 500 plates on its own, each with equally good quality. In addition to a single-casing automatic upper and lower version device with a capacity of 100 plates, a standard model with multiple-box automatic plate-up devices can also be selected, including five version boxes, each of which can store 100 printing plates. Like the Type 74 in the same series, Dingsheng 102 can also automatically remove the inter-sheet liner. The online punching machine and built-in register punching device are equipped for fully automatic and semi-automatic models at the same time, which can be applied to Heidelberg and various customer-defined web formats. Dingsheng 102 is designed for split printing on 70 x 100 cm format presses. Plate format sizes range from 650 x 550 mm to 1160 x 940 mm, with a choice of multiple press formats. Thanks to its advanced thermal technology and ability to support six different resolutions from 1200 dpi to 4000 dpi, the quality of the Topstar 102 plates can meet the needs of the most discerning customers. Once high production efficiency is required, the top-of-the-line family will have four advantages and will have an advantage over the startup model. The Dingsheng 74 and 102 CTP systems, whether fully automatic or semi-automatic, are specially made for large and medium-sized printing plants that wish to develop their full production capabilities. The Heidelberg brand ensures that the top choice is to choose high quality. Dingsheng 102 will have a wonderful performance at the Beijing International Printing Exhibition. Since the third quarter of 2000, it has begun to supply in Europe. For more information, please contact: Mr. Zhu Zhongyu, Heidelberg China Ltd.
