Plateroom Process Control – Video Series

Plateroom Process Control Video Series

We all know that pressroom process control is important, but plateroom process control is equally important and sometimes gets overlooked. Unfortunately, it doesn’t matter how good your pressroom controls are if you are sending out subpar or irregular plates. Nothing in these videos is groundbreaking, just a friendly reminder of some plateroom best practices and some tools the APR team finds helpful for implementing them. Of course, there are many ways to accomplish the same thing, so feel free to modify the recommendations to fit your production environment. These first six videos really concentrate on what we measure, why we measure, and how we measure. The next six will concentrate on curves with the Esko software. If after watching these, myself or the APR team can be of any assistance please do not hesitate to reach out.
