Lüscher Technologies AG is launching the world's first ultra-compact computer-to-screen system JetScreen! CS for the high-end production of screen printing stencils combined with the in-house X!Tend software for optimal image results. The new system can be presented live in the modern demo and training centre in Oftringen, Switzerland
With this worldwide unique system for the high-end production of screen printing stencils, Lüscher once again presents a completely new generation of CtS systems: Swiss precision engineering and state-of-the-art laser technology compactly combined for the high-precision digital imaging of screen printing stencils with a format of up to 1300 x 1450 mm. The stencils can be inserted from the front or the side. Optionally, the JetScreen! CS can be equipped with an automatic stencil feeding system to be integrated into an inline system.
Compact, highly accurate and optimised
The JetScreen! CS system is transported and installed as a compact, ready-to-use unit. This way, the installation time can be shortened considerably and the costs incurred for the installation are significantly lower.
Depending on the quality required, the desired resolution can be freely selected at the touch of a button. Whether 635, 1270 or 2540 dpi - the resolution is in direct proportion to the output performance. This means that the JetScreen! CS always operates in the optimum quality and speed range. For more demanding applications, such as membrane keyboards or printed electronics, the 5080 dpi resolution is used. It allows the flawless reproduction of the finest details such as lines up to a thickness of 30 microns.
For all conventional emulsions
The laser diodes have high power reserves and the energy can be adapted to the requirements of the emulsion. No special high-speed layers are required, because all conventional types of emulsions and thick layers can be exposed and through-cured on the JetScreen! CS. Consumables such as metal halide lamps, LEDs or DMD chips are thus no longer required. The 2 kW power consumption of the JetScreen! CS is considerably low and also guarantees the lowest operating costs.
X!Tend - the groundbreaking software solution for optimal image results in the processing of TIFF data
X!Tend can be used to significantly improve the image results of screen emulsions, capillary films and photoresists (positive or negative). The software adjusts the size of all graphic elements to compensate for light diffusion, diffraction and other physical phenomena and brings them into line with the TIFF input.
