The company has recently installed Cron CtP, supplied and installed by Nippon Color. “We are committed to delivering excellent quality, fast turnaround times, and outstanding service to the printing industry.

The company has been encountering a rising demand for more and more digital printing plates, mainly because CTP systems have higher accuracy and productivity over conventional systems. “Looking at Nippon’s installation base and Cron’s brand image, it was a relatively easy decision to choose Cron CTCP Model: UVP4664G+I+,” shares Aakash.
On asking about the challenges in the digital printing plates business in present time, Aakash replies, “The major challenges in the digital printing plates business include maintaining quality control, achieving cost efficiency, and keeping up with technological advancements. Well, Plate Labs is the solution!”
PlateLabs has also installed additional equipment alongside the Cron CTCP system, including an online processor TPD-860 from Shangzun and a baking machine. “This addition ensures a seamless and convenient experience for our clients, providing them with a comprehensive solution for their pre-press needs,” he adds.
“We have a favorable ROI as we are purchasing CTCP plates from Nippon as well at competitive rates. So far, the Cron CTCP installation has been very satisfactory, and we are optimistic about maintaining the same level of efficiency and customer satisfaction in the future,” concludes Aakash.
