Problem Solution

Our solution

High-performance CTP technology, fully integrated and supported by experts who understand the newspaper printing industry.

GMDE selects and implements CTP systems tailored to the actual production requirements of your printing facility, taking into account print volumes, plate formats, press configurations, automation levels, and business continuity needs.

Selezione tecnica su misura

Analisi del parco macchine esistente, dei volumi di produzione e del workflow per identificare la configurazione CTP più adatta senza sovradimensionare né sottodimensionare

Installazione e integrazione nel workflow

Il sistema viene integrato con il RIP, il sistema di imposition e il flusso di movimentazione lastre esistente, garantendo un flusso continuo dall'approvazione delle pagine all'incisione.

Qualità di incisione certificata

risoluzione, linearizzazione delle curve di stampa e controllo della densità vengono configurati e verificati prima del go-live, con test su tirature reali.

Presidio tecnico h24/365

Assistenza remota e on-site con tempi di intervento garantiti, da un team che conosce già l'impianto e non ha bisogno di essere introdotto ogni volta.

The challenge we know well

An outdated CTP system does more than slow down production it puts the entire printing operation under pressure.

Newspaper production leaves no room for delays: plates must be ready before the press starts running. When a CTP system cannot keep pace with production demands, bottlenecks quickly spread throughout the entire print workflow.

Cadenza di incisione insufficiente rispetto ai volumi di chiusura, con code che bloccano il flusso verso le rotative.

Qualità di incisione variabile: punti di retino fuori tolleranza, densità irregolariche generano scarti e rilavorazioni in stampa.

Integrazione difficoltosa con il workflow di prestampa esistente, con passaggi manuali che moltiplicano il rischio di errore.

Assistenza tecnica lenta o assente nei momenti critici: guasti durante la chiusura notturna senza nessuno a cui telefonare.

benefits

Engraving speed aligned with production deadlines

The CTP system never becomes a bottleneck before the press. Plates are ready when needed, even during peak production periods.

Consistent print quality across every run

Calibrated linearization and precise control of engraving parameters ensure consistent color reproduction and dot quality, regardless of shift or operator.

Seamless integration into existing workflows

No need to redesign the entire prepress environment. The system integrates smoothly into existing workflows without disrupting production during the transition.

Reduced waste and rework

Correctly imaged plates on the first attempt mean fewer press stoppages, less paper waste, and fewer last-minute corrections under tight deadlines.

Optimized total cost of ownership

GMDE recommends the solution best suited to your actual production volumes, not the most expensive one. Efficiency is measured over time, not just at the point of purchase.

A single partner for installation, integration, and support

No separate vendors for hardware, software, and maintenance. GMDE manages the entire lifecycle of the system from implementation to ongoing support.
