If you are looking in the US Pitman sells them.

I think they are around $60,000 last time I looked but I also am not sure what that all includes.

EMH, for what it's worth, my current book shows the list price of the Mako2x at $55k US. That's for the imager and TIF catcher only.
The basic Workmates 3 package lists at $12,5k

That said, these machines don't actually sell for list. also, you'll need a couple of things that ECRM does not sell, namely, plates (violet photopolymer) and a processor.
ECRM has dealers and reps all over the world, contact your local dealer.
One of the biggest advantages of buying NEW is full manufacturer support, and buying thru a local authorized dealer is how you get that support.

BTW -

It looks like ECRM is the first in the US to demontrate live Agfa N92-VCF violet "chem-free" plates...

EHM, I did rcv your PM, however... the info posted above should be enough to ensure your dealer is doing you right. I cannot sell a new ECRM machine out of the country and maintain full factory support and warrantee of that machine.

As for a plate processor, Agfa's N92 no process plates may indeed be a good choice.
CA Systems makes a good processor as well.

violet vs thermal

violet vs thermal

We recently started looking at CTPs and were considering a couple of violet systems. Now one vendor has proposed the Kodak Trendsetter 800 III at basically the same price of a Kodak violet system.
Could anyone share their experience with the Trendsetter or views?
Could anyone also comment on the violet system vs thermal, the benefits, etc?
Finally, same questions for the ECRM Mako ctp.

Thks.

Violet is more common in the 2 and 4 page format from what I have seen. Esko has a system but I don't think it's sold anymore, ECRM has one, and Heidelberg, I'm sure there are others. I just don't see it that often in the larger format commercial market.

We have trendsetters in many vintages some with Creo on the front, some with Heidelberg Creo, and some with Kodak. They are dependable and consistent they also don't require yellow lighting like with violet.

 

[KMGI Sales]

Violet however, the intitial cost of purchasing the device, and the costs generated in maintenance are far cheaper.

It used to be quite different many years ago when Violet was only produced in the silver versions, now that it has gone Photopolymer, the cost is about the same as you would find when purchasing thermal.

Both have their Pros and Cons, and Violets overall speed will far surpass Thermal, and the cost will continue to fall.

I believe come this time next year or the year after, Violet will have surpassed Thermal in devices sold and quantity on the floor at the consumers.
