ProFire Excel ™ Laser Imaging Technology
ProFire Excel is Presstek's latest generation laser imaging technology. ProFire Excel delivers exceptional image quality while dramatically reducing the possibility of moire patterns in standard screen rulings. Fine details, color fidelity, minimum screen values, and large solids are produced with results that meet the most demanding offset printing needs.
ProFire Escel easily supports screen rulings at 2400 dpi up to 300 lpi, combining the imaging componenets of infared laser diodes, laser drivers, data electronics, and motion control into one compact system. The foundation of ProFire Excel is a single image data board that contols the laser diodes. Each diode contains four uniquely addressable, 16-micron beams for high reliability, unmatched accuracy, and high resolution imaging.
ProFire ™ Digital Media
Presstek's ProFire Digital Media is a waterless imaging plate that provides the key benfits of on press imaging and waterless printing; more consistent color, large color gamut, better color satuaration, lower dot gain, and incredibly precise detail.
Without fountain solutions, printing is cleaner, both operationally and on the printed sheet, with fewer variables, and there is no ink/water balance to manage, making for fast setups and less prerun waste. Combined with additional make ready features of the 34DI process, this makes for a much more ecologically friendly solution to your printing needs.
The interaction of laser plate technologies is key to the effectiveness of digital systems for offset printing. Because Presstek manufactures both the imaging componenets and the digital plate media for the 34DI, the result is an effective, optimized system.
