Creo Digital Platesetter
Accuracy and Consistency
In 1995, Cohber became the first sheetfed printer in the U.S. to install the Creo Digital Platesetter. Creo eliminates the use of film and conventional stripping, thus saving time, materials and dollars. Plates are made quickly and accurately with rush work and last minute changes handled without the delays of conventional stripping and platemaking. All plates are first generation. The digital file is ripped and exposed directly to the plate material giving us more control over dot gain and the ability to consistently print sharper, higher quality images. Once jobs have been successfully plated they are archived and cataloged for easy retrieval.
Part of the Creo workflow is managing digital assets. This is done with an automated, robotically-operated archival system that holds 5.2 terabytes of data and stores all jobs on bar-coded tapes. Having all this digital information at your fingertips makes re-purposing an easy task.
