Presstek
52DI : THE ULTIMATE IN TECHNOLOGY
Optimum
performance
The incomparable efficiency and exceptional
quality of the Presstek 52DI is the result of the
blending of three unique Presstek technologies—
press design, laser imaging and thermal plate
media—to work together as an integrated system.
Press Design
The 52DI uses Presstek’s Zero Transfer Printing (ZTP)process.
With ZTP all four colors are laid down
onto the sheet without any sheet transfer between
colors. ZTP, combined with the 52 cm landscape
format of the Presstek 52DI provides:
- First
sheet register
- Precise registration,
sheet to sheet, job to job
- Sellable color within
20 sheets
- Excellent ink
coverage and reduced waste
A satellite
V-shaped 5-cylinder system consists oftwo sets of
double-diameter blanket cylinders and
plate cylinders which rotate around a triplediameter
impression cylinder. Each sheet is tightly
held by the impression cylinder grippers and
rotated twice without being transferred for precise
four-color printing. The large diameter of the
impression cylinder reduces paper curling as
well as damage to the substrate.
