We are proud to introduce the new PlateWriter 2500. It can image plates up to maximum plate size of 550 x 650 mm (21.7 x 25.6"), allowing for a larger range of image sizes and plate formats than the PlateWriter 2000.
The new PlateWriter 2500 carries forward our environmentally friendly approach to plate making, by also delivering press ready aluminum plates without any use of chemical processing.
“We do high volumes – nine million impressions a year with an average run length of 100,000,” reveals SPS Managing Director Tim Cullingworth of SPS Print and Mail Solutions in Knaresborough, North Yorkshire. “We do 40,000 per day on each of our three Heidelberg Printmasters and the PlateWriter fits in very well.”
SPS installed its PlateWriter in 2009 and says that it is “tremendously reliable”. The company purchased it from Intec Printing Solutions in Poole, Dorset and Mr Cullingworth was pleased with “the high standard of very useful training” provided by Intec.
Several independent small newspaper producers in New Zealand have decided to ditch their manual plate making methods in favour of new Glunz & Jensen NewsWriters.
Six months ago Phoenix Print in Bodmin installed a Glunz & Jensen PlateWriter 2000 to fulfil its pre-press needs. "Our monthly water bill has since plummeted from £100 to just £25," reveals surprised MD John Fenton.
Meanwhile, Printout in Truro, which employs three staff, also invested in a Glunz & Jensen PlateWriter 2000. This has resulted in some good news from the printer’s electricity supplier. Owner Martyn Kimmins reports: "I have received a refund on my electricity bill as my consumption has dropped by 30%."
