InterPlater HDX Polymer – a new level of processing

Thursday 15. May 2008 - InterPlater HDX is the new high-end generation of the highly recognized InterPlater HD plate processor platform. With the new range of high-end InterPlater HDX plate processors Glunz & Jensen have managed to improve both productivity, serviceability and usability. Extensive research and development is the successful X-factor behind the new products.

At a first glance users will notice several design changes like the new control panel and the hidden cabinet with the electrical components. But beneath the surface of the InterPlater HDX there have been numerous and more drastic changes like increase of speed and upgrading of both the pre-heat oven and developer section.

Improvements to enhance performance
The electrical layout and the sections for developing, filter and tubing have all been modified to make servicing easier and less time-consuming. Among the benefits are easy access to the processor, removal and replacement of brush, rollers, spray bars and guides without use of tools, automatic gum cleaning and remote diagnostics.

Redesign of the development section has improved the performance of the processor as well as the development quality. With a productivity of +300 pph and a linear speed of 2,2 m/min the processor matches the performance of the fastest setters. The hot-air circulation ovens are powerful and the touch-screen enhances daily usability.

Targeted specifically at high-end users
InterPlater HDX meets the requirements of modern CtP plates and plate setters from all major plate manufacturers to support high-end newspaper and high-end commercial applications. Now heavy-duty users find an even better and more efficient tool to support their business.

The InterPlater HDX platform is available for the traditional Violet and Thermal applications, but will also support future chemistry-free applications. The platform support plates up to 85, 125 and 150 mm in width.
