PCOM Cuts Chemistry with New CTP

The in-plant recently tackled this issue head-on by switching to chemistry-free Agfa :Azura plates. A new :Azura C85 processor has been installed, and the shop made an almost seamless transition to the new plates.

One of its first jobs was an alumni newsletter that required nearly 100 plates. Gray says his staff had no problem producing it. The fact that plate-burning time has increased from three to about six minutes has not proved to be a significant concern, he adds.
