Scodix has developed a new productivity workflow package, Studio Station, designed to boost press utilisation and production flexibility for users of its digital enhancement technology.
Scodix Studio Station is an enhancement digital front end (EDFE), with Scodix software running on dedicated Scodix hardware. The system has an external RIP server, making RIPs faster and automatic, with an easy-to-use interface, and incorporates two new registration methods. Specifically, Scodix Studio Station can process jobs up to 60 percent faster on Ultra digital enhancement presses.
Scodix CMO Amit Shvartz said, ‘This new solution allows printers to prepare more jobs, faster, handle large volume variable data jobs and process jobs from various sources more efficiently.
‘As every digital printer knows, uptime is imperative to profitability, and Scodix Studio Station will help printers maximise the efficiency and productivity of their digital enhancement operations.’
Focusing in on the two new registration methods, Mr Shvartz commented, ‘Scodix has always provided best-in-class registration. Until now that has been achieved by detecting four OPA dots. With the Scodix automatic registration process (ARP), Scodix Studio Station can achieve registration down to 100µm, using corner detection or CMYK objects detection.
‘For trade printers and PSPs receiving jobs from lots of different sources, this will simplify the process and allow them to access the full power of Scodix digital enhancements.’
