The two Generation News Systems will replace two of the three Kodak Trendsetter News Platesetters currently used by the company to image Kodak Thermal News Gold Plates. The installation will enable PNP Druck to increase productivity, with each system capable of imaging 250 plates an hour at 1200dpi. Kodak will also supply online plate processors for the new systems, which are scheduled be put into production in Passau before the end of the year.
