    If that's evolution it looks more like inbreeding and this will eventually lead to the species demise. The (printing) habitat continues shrinking as we all see...

    Excessive vibration on a screen 4100

    I put my money on the servo pack. Hook a dual channel scope on the motor connector, the waveform and phase may tell if it's an inverter problem or mechanical. You replaced the belt, did you check the AC Servo pack offset and gain ?

    Topsetter issue

    I assume the lines are horizontal, as you said "across the plate". In the past I've only seen series of 1 pixel dots across the plate, not solid lines, it turned out to be a damaged RB31. Your problem looks like an electrical failure has nothing to do with optics cleanliness IMHO as lines are...

    Excessive vibration on a screen 4100

    The glued blocks are set in factory for dynamic balance do not mess with them. Ask a qualified tech to capture live serial data from the machine (diag) while running the balancer test he should understand what's going on, it seems the balancer weights slip away from position while drum is...

    Help with Setting up Xitron Navigator V10 Tiff Settings

    A bit confusing you're not sure if you need tiff output or not. You say you got the dongle so you must have the attached document containing purchased activation codes. Guess Xitron is right this is an old unsupported version they cannot generate codes for it any more.

    CTP Plates ECO3 problem

    Antura and Alunet are good quality I used them both you don't risk removing or softening the image. Try Antura first it's the Eco3 product anyway. This plate cleaner thing is a temporary workaround you must solve the plate storage problem ... ideally run AC in the ctp room longer times to keep...

    CTP Plates ECO3 problem

    Is it newspaper printing ? If so, a bit of plate cleaner should be ok(ish) but beware of coating residue recontaminating the plate in non-printing areas, I would only use cleaners as a last resort. Instead of Imaf use a softer cleaner like Alunet, specially formulated for ctp plates.

    CTP Plates ECO3 problem

    The Eclipse plates are negative working, their standard sensitivity of 120-130 mJ/sqcm will decrease if stored in cold environment or stored for more than 12-16 months. Check the expiry date on the label. Allow plates to acclimatize in the ctp room properly for at least one full day prior to...

    CTP Plates ECO3 problem

    Craveiro, toning on large areas on DOP plates points to either underexposure on incorrect cleaning sequence on press. Your Eco3 supplier should have instructed your pressmen regarding coating removal. First thing clean you ctp optics, recalibrate and retest. If result is better but not perfect...

    Plate consistency

    Gianni, in addition to what gordo said before : - bear in mind these are almost certainly all negative working plates. As lasers write the image you would expect to read in the range 50 to 54 percent if energy is properly set because these negative plates have a bit of dot gain. Check the...

    MAKO46 Imaging issue

    Garbage in video also coming up in test patterns points to the main controller board or laser driver PCB. Check coax cables. Is this ambient temperature related or permanent. PM me for more details, I can help further. Can't rule out the spinner though, as it appears it shifted the image just...
