Newspaper CTP of the future: breakthrough technology take advantage of the cost of the bottleneck - the press, CTP-printing industry

Printing, CTP (Computer to Plate) technology has been made in recent years in the field. Currently, the largest increase in pre-press plate-making, one of the most influential high technology. In particular, the print-area applications CTP technology has become a mature phase, Printing of newspapers in Germany have adopted the CTP
. North America and Asia, came to maturity in newspaper CTP. China, the implementation of newspaper CTP through a 10-year history. But now, the impression of some 500 newspapers in China, is only 50 CTP device, CTP plates will be fully used our content on a daily basis by 10%. Reporter, restrict the development of TCC of paper, the bottleneck is mainly upper plate of the CTP costs, is also due to the poor quality of CTP devices. Recently published by the China Daily News, "Journal of Chinese demand for CTP situation, the interview committee of China Association of Newspapers Printing Consultants June Xiatian

Background interview CTP CTP Topla computer, a Chinese translation of the computer disk is a computer design data for the production of printing plates directly from the process. CTP technology developed in the 20th century, 80 take the field of fashion prepress plate-making. June Xiatian told Yangcheng Evening News in 1998, the Press Center for the first time after the successful introduction of CTP equipment, application of China newspaper CTP technology has gone through 10 years. Over the past 10 years developing a certain threshold newspaper CTP Gully, but gently.

According to statistics, in 2008 the end of September, China's press room for CTP was 170 points. Xia Tianjun journalists statistics show that China has 2007 CTP printing machines of about 50 newspapers and nearly 500 newspapers print 1 / 10.2007 PTC in China is the version that the total amount of 7.5%. 2008, no amount of statistics in the June CTP Xiatian estimated that this number will increase by about 10%.

In recent years, the newspaper installed CTP greater capacity, and exploit the explosive growth in development. Beijing University Founder Electronics Co., Ltd Lu Lan manager product emissions since 2005, very gradually stop the camera, the team began to CTP exponential growth. Since the stability of CTP plate, high-performance, easy to use benefits, the current CTP has become the most appropriate production of plaque in the paper industry. Founder Electronics Co., vice-chairman and founder of guests confirmed: "Our team average SOC in 2008 showed the development of explosive growth. Since the end of September 2008, the companies Chinese newspaper CTP-170 units. Founder For example, in 2008, sales of equipment CTP doubled three times in the past." He said, because of rapid growth, explaining the market CTP, after almost 10 years the brewery has become a mature stage of development.

Use the high cost of development bottlenecks
Number of China's press has been more than 30 million meals a year. This CTP nearly 10% of $ 3,000,000. Why newspapers CTP technology applications for 10 years, while the CTP edition, only 10% of the amount? Xiatian June, said: "10 years, we have called the newspaper printing environment with CTP facilities, but more slowly. This is mainly due to CTP price is too high, is the second part of the reason for the poor quality of equipment. "

Xia Tianjun analysis: "print newspaper CTP spend 5000000000 purchase, where the investment has also been recognized, but the rest of the dish is very expensive. CTP has arrived in our country, price per square meter is 90 yuan to 100 yuan, a record current PS version only 30 yuan per square meter, CTP plate three times their price. In fact, the team spent 2 million yuan to complain a lot, but the version of the daily consumption. If the printer is one year 100 000 PS version, go to PTC, an increase of 200 million per year funding requirements. change is estimated 200 000 Pass 4 million yuan , spending a total of 300 000 6 million yuan. Now 300 000 per year the amount by weight of a slab, the price meals in a very difficult piece. Plate consumption has investment projects underway, so that everyone had to go, so the cost of production for the period. In this case, speed CTP newspaper also monitor the application below. "June Xiatian for example, newspaper printing machines bought after CTP CTP plate as you can to control costs, plant version of the traditional version of the conventional PS edition, taking into account the specific circumstances of Job CTP with Zhang has also accepted an administrator.

In addition, part of the quality of the material does not depend on CTP printing is a demand problem. According to press reports, the current CTP devices use more brand Agfa, Creo, Klaus others. CTP equipment just in time to the Chinese press had three Danish newspaper printed in PTC team bought the brand, spending huge sums of money to buy equipment is not satisfactory.

Xiatian June said that the printing of the newspaper spent $ 700 million purchase, the results are presented. Material for a long time, the aim should be Mengmeng Wu, and employees must use tape to cover the slot stuck. Later, one of them does not return. In addition, there is no printing plate CTP equipment does not correspond to equipment problems.

The possibility of lower prices CTP space
In recent years, we have a newspaper CTP applications was increasing. As the person the press, said: "The printing presses CTP will no longer consider there is no problem, but keep in mind that the system needs attention and how to use the system, a good question." Official CTP

the development prospects of June Xiatian also said that the press will continue to apply CTP technology, which is stationary. With the development, the price decrease gradually CTP plate. Newspaper CTP device, wait for five or six times in recent years, the growth plate CTP could be a considerable amount of growth.

Newspaper CTP plates that unit and there are two trends, the press will have more favorable CTP technology.

First, the equipment and the PTC. Environmentally friendly Violet CTP newspaper has become the main computer. According to statistics, China's share of newspaper CTP approximately 170 units, which corresponds to 80% UV. Cases with evidence, 2006-2008, Founder Electronics Co., Ltd-violet laser equipment sales accounted for 8 consecutive three years.
