Esko’s Post-Rip Tools Increase Plate Room Efficiency
Gent, Belgium-based Esko’s Digital Flexo Suite for Labels includes a number of post-rip tools to increase efficiency in the plate room, particularly for label printers. For example, PlatePrep automatically crops, sorts and arranges labels on a large flexo plate for an efficient and cost-effective plate output, with as little waste as possible. As soon as a plate is filled with label separations, it is sent to an Esko CDI flexo plate imager. At the same time, information about the plate is sent to a Kongsberg cutting table, where the individual label separations are cut automatically. With increasing design variations and ever-shrinking print run lengths, this automated solution saves time and money for trade shops and label converters.
