North American Graphics Adds to Digital Platemaking Capabilities

“We already had existing clients who needed wider plates than we could provide, so we’d go out of house for it,” said Thompson. “Now we’ve brought all that work into our facility. We were up and running with the FLEXCEL NX Wide System within the first week.”

KODAK plates and the new FLEXCEL NX System give NAG the capability to solve imaging issues for its customers, Thompson said. “I had a printer that fought whenever he had a four-color job,” he explained. “We did a characterization on his press, and his customer loved it, and he got four more jobs right after it. He’s got a lot more confidence in what he can do, and he knows we’re going to be consistent.”
