Automatic inline punch
Screen’s automatic inline punching system is the industry leader for enabling perfect register on press. It does this by performing two types of punching (for press and platesetter registration) at the same time, immediately before mounting the plate on the drum. This method gives much greater registration accuracy compared with either manual or off-line punching, eliminates human error and achieves faster press makeready.

Punch blocks from Heidelberg, Komori, Bacher, Protocol, Stoesser, Grapho Metronic and Screen are available, covering the full range of sizes for all major press types. Up to four punch blocks can be mounted and selected according to plate size and press type.

Autoloader options

Both the PlateRite 4300S and PlateRite 4300E can be paired with the SA-L4300II single-cassette autoloader. This high-quality unit can hold up to 100 plates and automatically removes interleaf paper before loading each plate.

It is also possible to upgrade from the SA-L 4300II to the MA-L 4300II multi-cassette autoloader, which comes standard with three cassettes and enables up to 300 plates of three different sizes to be loaded and imaged in the PlateRite 4300S without operator intervention.

The PlateRite 4300S and PlateRite 4300E can also be paired with the more economical SA-L 4100* single-cassette autoloader. Both the PlateRite 4300S and PlateRite 4300E are supported by an automatic processor bridge, which extends process automation all the way through to the plate processor.
