Screen FTR Katana 5055 imagesetter

Superior registration accuracy The Katana 5040R and Katana 5055R's improved film transport system assures consistent media placement. Thanks to this new system' the Katana 5000R series imagesetters offer a remarkable registration accuracy of ±25 microns (±1 mil) for four continuous separations. This makes it easy to get high quality four color printed output every time. Even higher speed output Fast transmission and reception capabilities' enhanced by advanced dedicated buffering technology' support continuous imaging by assuring that data is transmitted to the imagesetter with a minimum of delay. Superior imaging system The Katanas' imaging system employs a five-facet polygon mirror that reflects a precision laser diode beam through a specially designed f q lens to narrow the beam and project it onto an exact point. This precise imaging system' paired with the Katanas' superior transport system helps these units image at a quality rivaling that of internal drum imagesetters' even at high resolutions and line rulings. Best of all' with the Katana 5000R series' the resulting high repeatability and accuracy is available on a variety of media at high speed. A variety of punch formats The Katana 5000R series feature a wide variety of punch formats' including optional tail punch support. Punch formats include Screen Stoesser Protocol Bacher and Western Lithotech. Custom punch formats can also be supported. Onsite punch system installation is available so users can choose to change punch formats even after the unit has been installed. Internal punch systems take the effort out of registration punching' reducing the strain on operators and increasing productivity even further. A choice of output media The Katana 5000R series support media from 10 to 24 inches wide and can output to a variety of media including film RC paper and flexible plates. Flexible plates make it easy to get fast high quality four color plate output right from the Katana 5000R series imagesetters. The superior repeatability and registration accuracy of the Katana 5000R series imagesetters assure high quality no matter what the media and flexible plate support makes it easy to create a fully digital prepress production workflow by turning the Katana 5000R series imagesetters into entry level CTP output devices. Optional LD-M1060 processor The LD-M1060 processor is specially designed for inline use with the Katana 5000 series imagesetters. A compact unit it keeps the imagesetter/processor's combined footprint down even further thanks to its bridgeless design. The processor's internal tank is 20% deeper than those of similar models' making a longer transport stroke possible. The extra length helps the processor keep up with the Katana series imagesetters' extremely high imaging speeds. Furthermore the LD-M1060's advanced processor tank design reduces chemical evaporation to provide more stable processing quality. High-speed RIPs for better productivity The Katana 5000R series are compatible with all of Dainippon Screen's advanced RIPs. The imagesetters' Fast-PIF data interface assures great productivity no matter what RIP is used. With the combination of Screen's high-quality RIPs and the Katana 5000R series imagesetters' it's easy to get high-quality full color A4 2 up or 4 up output. The Harlequin ScriptWorks-based HQ-510 RIPs feature PostScript 3 compatibility and drive the Katana series efficiently. Trueflow Rite is an advanced workflow system based on the latest core technology from Adobe. Both the HQ- 510 RIPs and Trueflow support PDF 1.5 input.
