Description
The FREEStyler is a direct to screen imaging system that offers customers a cost effective, economical option, while still providing all of the expected advantages of computer to screen imaging.
The FREEStyler uses up to four black cartridges that contain specially formulated UV light blocking ink. This water-soluble ink provides density readings over 3.5 UV, which means it will hold small halftone dots and fine details, much better than vellum or ink jet film. Since the ink is directly applied to the emulsion, no vacuum is required and there is no chance of undercutting during exposure.
Exposure times are typically reduced since there is no glass or film to diffuse UV light. With the screen lifted off the glass, pinholes are almost entirely eliminated, which means less touching up the screen after exposure.
One of the competitive advantages of the FREEStyler system is the registration capabilities. The FREEStyler digitally places the image with absolute accuracy. This eliminates human error with manual placement of film separations on multiple screens. With the integrated 3-point registration system, you are assured that multi-colored jobs will always be in the correct position from the minute they are put into the press. That translates into less press setup up time, and more jobs run per day, making your print shop more profitable.
