Dimension Excel - Chemistry Free, CTP Imaging Solutions

True Chemistry-free CTP with Presstek Dimension Excel

The easy-to-use Dimension Excel Series using Presstek’s chemistry-free Anthem Pro plates provides the reliability, speed and quality that printers – especially mid-size and smaller shops – require. Dimension Excel platesetters can be configured as a standard (Dimension425) or as a high production (Dimension450) platemaker. Chemistry-free Anthem Pro plates are designed to support run lengths up to 100,000 impressions.

Dimension Excel systems employ daylight-safe, chemistry-free thermal imaging technology. Gone is the need for special lighting environments and plate processor maintenance. All chemical developer costs are completely eliminated including storage and disposal. There is no need to clean, monitor or maintain the processor. And there are no more remakes due to exposure or vacuum frame deficiencies or errors. All of which results in a significant reduction in platemaking cost.

The combination of Dimension Excel platesetters and Presstek's chemistry-free Anthem Pro plates provides an optimized system for higher productivity, cleaner operation and lower cost. It's a smart CTP investment strategy...and a smarter way to print.
