Our country conquers the bottleneck of printing and realizes localization of plates

With the support of the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Science and Technology, and the Chinese Academy of Sciences, after more than ten years of hard work, Chinese scientists and technicians not only succeeded in overcoming the “bottleneck” of computer-to-platemaking technology, but also achieved the localization of plates, and provided for many newspapers and newspapers. A large-scale successful trial of commercial printing units.

This is the computer to plate (CTP) technology. Compared with the traditional platemaking technology, computer-to-platemaking eliminates the intermediate step of “laser photocopying”, which shortens the plate making time from about 50 minutes to 2 minutes, and achieves high speed, high quality, low cost, and low pollution. Information transmission and prepress digitalization. (Into the beginning)
