How the Helioklischograph works

The direct electronic engraving is a fully digitalized process. The 'engraving originals' are download from a directory (released) shared in line with the digital page-up department, where sigle images (digital files) are processed to obtain, with Step & Repeat, the final page-up with all the register marks(cross, autotron,slitting line,buttons,etc) following the customer's specifications. This is to obtain a complete digital printing(cromalin) for final control before engraving. In this part of the process a set of Job Tickets( files containing all the engraving parameters necessaryfor the Helioklischograph) will be coupled with the job single colours.
After the acquisition of the file, the machine will execute automatically a set of Test Cut, then (when the requested engraving parameters are obtained) will proceed directly with the definitive engraving of bthe images.
