SMGI & SMGII PRE-PRESS: ECRM violet plate setters/Nela vision bender
- Screen Ruling: 110 line screen
- Our plate-setters use violet lasers to meticulously etch images onto printing plates, which gives us the ability to virtually match the colors you expected to the finished product. We also use gray bars to calibrate each page and aid in accurately setting ink. Lastly, we provide color settings that are a fingerprint of our press and are always available to work directly with you to output the highest quality product imaginable.
