  • Ink Saver Technology - Less Ink Same Quality. With Ink Saver Module - the total amount of ink can be reduced by up to 30 percent without a visible loss of quality, which also means a reduction of the total printing costs.

  • In combination with a Value Pack additional products can be purchased with a discount

FILM

RIP Software

Filmgate

 

Filmgate is the worldwide leading RIP Software for chemical-free film production using inkjet printers for flexo-, offset- and screen printing in high-end quality. Filmgate is available for Productionserver as the Film and Plate Module (FPM). Productionserver in combination with FPM, Computer to Screen Module (CTSM), In-RIP-Trapping Module (TRAPM) and Proof Standard Digital Module (PSDM) covers CTSApplications or digital proofing in terms of the creation of color or screen binding.

  • ​​​Full support of an unlimited amount of spot colors; individual sets and screening settings can also be defined for spot colors

  • Highly efficient ICC color management for color-accurate In-RIP separation

  • Adequate film material: CG Reprofilm HD and CG Screenfilm Waterbased are the ideal daylight media for high-end screen printing production.

  • For Productionserver, Filmgate is available as optional Film and Plate Module (FPM)

​

Add one or more Output Management Sets (OMS). Starting with version 10.10 Adobe PDF Print Engine (APPE) is included in Filmgate basic products and therefore separated from OMS sets. The OMS are differentiated by the different printer drivers categories (S,M,L,P).
