Description

 
   The Kodak Magnus VLF Platesetter is one of the fastest fully automated VLF platesetters on the market, providing high-quality imaging with KODAK Thermal Imaging Technology. The Kodak Magnus VLF Quantum Platesetter uses Kodak Squarespot Imaging Technology for superior stability, reliability, and accuracy in imaging. Available with multiple speed, format, and automation options, the Kodak Magnus VLF Platesetter can maximize the productivity of any operation.
  • Choose from four different speeds and format sizes; X-speed configuration with dual-plate option enables imaging of up to 28.2 2070 mm (81.5 in.) plates per hour, or over 52.6 1030 mm (40.5 in.) plates per hour at 2400 dpi
  • Choose the automation option that best suits your needs: semi-automatic operation, ContinuousLoad option for two-plate queuing, Multi-Cassette Unit automation, or the KODAK Automatic Pallet Loader option
  • The KODAK Automatic Pallet Loader enables longer continuous operation with no manual handling of plates. Available in 1-, 2-, or 3-segments, it can handle up to 6 pallets of plates with as many as 600 plates on each pallet
  • Dual plate loading allows two plates to be loaded side-by-side for faster imaging
  • Side-Edge Registration enables plates imaged in portrait orientation to be registered to the long edge
  • Integrated inline punch option enhances automation and eliminates costly errors
  • Part of a complete thermal CTP solution from Kodak: available with Kodak Prinergy Workflow System and third-party workflow connectivity. Kodak Electra XD, Thermal Platinium, DITP GOLD, and Thermal Gold Digital Plates and a wide range of other thermal media have been qualified for use.
