The Avalon C4-30 NP thermal computer-to-plate system combines a compact footprint with outstanding imaging capabilities. It handles plates up to 925 x 675 mm. A press punch, autoloader and bridge to a processor or clean-out unit can be added to automate the entire plate-making process. Up to 64 plates per hour can be imaged.
ECO3 can offer the engine as part of a full system solution, including offset plates, Arkitex workflow software and support contracts.
Benefits
Multi-channel fiber-coupled thermal laser-diode technology
The Avalon C4-30 NP utilizes multi-channel fiber-coupled thermal laser-diode technology, providing precise dot reproduction on the plate. The XXT version can output up to 64 plates per hour thanks to its 96 laser diodes.
Process automation options
An autoloader significantly improves plate loading efficiency. Activate the inline press punch before loading the plate onto the external drum. After imaging, plates are seamlessly guided into an online processor or clean-out unit.
Manual plate loading with standard pre-staging
Empower your operators with flexibility. Load a plate while imaging another, leaving the unit unattended. As the first plate exits the external drum, the second plate automatically enters the system – all without requiring operator intervention.
