It is designed to process solvent-washable as well as water-washable, polyester-backed, analogue and digital plates up to a size of 90 x 120 cm (36x48 inch) and thickness up to 7 mm (0.276 inches).
The standard version is equipped with a stress-accumulation early-warning-system and may be equipped with optional tools that enable remote-monitoring and remote-diagnostics.
Exposure
- New cooling bed system to grant a uniform and constant temperature without any exposure time limit
- Vacuum system for analogic plates exposure
- Probe for temperature control
- High concentration of UVA lamps to ensure the highest UV output in its class
- Light integrator
- Lamps air flow cooling system with temperature control
- Optical fibers lamp control
Light-Finisher
- Auto combined UVA-UVC post exposure (simoultaneous/consecutive/delayed)
- Air flow cooling system
- Optical fibers lamp control
Dryer
- 4 sealed drawers to prevent any leak of fumes
- Drying temperature reached in a very reduced time thanks to the new hot air generation and circulation system.
- Automatic pre-heat system
- Automatic switch off option
- Optimal T° uniformity thanks to 2 separate T° controls interfaces
- New air suction sytem design to ensure a faster plate drying
Encumbrance
The minimum distance should be of 0.8 mt (31.49”) in front and at the rear and 1 mt (40”) to the sides.
The respect of the minimum distance from the walls is critical to allow sufficient space to the users and the engineers to be able to have access to the system in case of maintenance and repairs.
CE Certification
The equipment is designed and manufactured according to the EEC safety and health standards, as specified in the Type Examination Certificate No. MA19-0042548-01 (309) issued by IMQ spa – Via Quintiliano 43 – 20138 Milan ITALY, and on the basis of the verifications carried out according to the essential requirements of the Directive 2006/42/EC, the system respects and is in compliance with all the applicable points.
General Features
This PLC controlled, exposure, dryer and light-finisher combined unit is specifically designed for high quality digital and conventional photopolymer plates for tag & label and small flexible printing applications (e.g. narrow web).
Modular
One of the most important feature of the Easy to Plate™ is the modularity concept, in other words, each unit is an independent piece of equipment buyable separately with the possibility of being upgrated and attached to one other to compose an all-in-one automatic unit. This gives you two choices: buy the whole automatic line at once, or ammortize the investment and buy the different units over a longer time frame.

Grounding
Compressed Air Supply
To perform to the best of its possibilities, the system requires a continuous and stable supply of compressed air at a pressure of at least 7 bar (101.5 psi) and not more than 10 bar (145 psi), with pressure dew point 3°C and max. residual intake oil content of < 0.01 mg/m3. Consider also an average consumption of 70 l/hr. The system installation kit includes a 5-meter - Ø 6mm air connecting pipe for push-in fitting.
Exhaust
The unit is equipped with a well-designed exhaust system that collect and conveys vapours and fumes from the different sections the machine and discharge them as quickly and silently as possible. The blower in the systems has sufficient power to vent the entire equipment when the tube supplied is connected directly to a vent hoods in the external wall or on the roof.
Light Finisher
Duct connection (V19): Ø 140 mm (5.5”) Airflow: 400-600 m3/h
Duct connection (V20): Ø 140 mm (5.5”) Airflow: 400-600 m3/h
Dryer
Duct connection: Ø 60 mm (2.36”) Airflow: 50-80 m3/h
Working Environment
The system should be installed in a clean, constant-temperature and constant-humidity pre-printing environment with a temperature between 18 and 26°C (64.4 and 78.8°F) and a non-condensing relative humidity in the range of 40 to 60%.
To maintain such environmental standards an efficient heating/cooling and ventilating system may be required.
