Introducing the X-factor

Features & Benefits

The InterPlater HDX continues the tried and trusted Glunz & Jensen technology from the first generation, but at the same time introduces selected innovative features that strengthen the product by offering even higher quality and productivity for high-end production.

• Xtreme plate processing performance• Xcellent usability for the daily user• Xtra easy access for maintenance

– the features and benefits of the X-factor changes are shown in the following slides.

Features & Benefits

Pre-heat section • Powerful dual hot air circulation ovens with heat-sink guarantee

continuous cross plate accuracy of +/- 3°C or better, with resistance to mains power variations (quality) and energy depletion at high productivity. More >>

• The oven has two separate heating chambers each with closed loop air circulation to prevent heat from escaping to the pre-press room, thus reducing direct production cost and the indirect cost of maintaining an acceptable climate in the pre-press room.

• The two separate oven chambers are each equipped with 2 heating elements that are individually controllable and enable 2-step oven functionality: accelerate and stabilize.

• This preheat oven is superior to any other integrated oven on the market…

Development section • Simplified design using a dip tank with a dip-to-nip distance increase of

20%. New brush geometry provides an increase in soak time of 50%. See next slide >>

• Firmly controlled developer conditions using circulation, heating and cooling to allow stability and compensation of plates entering developer and pre-press room conditions in general.

• Plate specific configuration kits which together with the plate supplier have been tested and proven to provide optimal plate development.

• Stable processing performance up to 2.2* m/min or +300* pph*) Depending on plate size and plate type

• Minimum plate length down to 285 mm ~ 46” web presses.• Continuous co-operation with plate manufacturers assures optional

development of the plate of your choice - now and in the future.

Features & Benefits

Prewash and wash section: Water consumption• InterPlater HDX has an water-saving kit that circulates the water in the

prewash and wash tanks.• With this kit installed, the water consumption is determined by two

factors:– Water replenish rate: typically 1000 ml/m2 in both prewash and wash– Water replacement frequency: e.g. every day

• Calculation– Assumption: 550 plates/day of size (395 x 580) mm ~ 126 m2

– Water replenish: 1000 ml/m2 x 126 m2 = 126 l /day– Water replacement: wash = 14l

Total daily consumption:140 l/day for each unit @ 550 plates/day size (395 x 580) mm

and daily water replacement ~ 2000 l/day in tapwater configuration


Control panel• Graphical control panel with on-screen touch display• LED Alarm indicator on top of panel for remote visual indication of

status• Use of graphical symbols and 3-level colouring provides instant

recognition.• Menu structure change with access levels, i.e. simple/limited

functionality available to daily operator.• On-line help/explanations• User information and help text in native language (on roadmap)• All G&J products use this control panel, i.e. know one = know all

Glunz & Jensen offer plate processors with a Client application that makes it possible to monitor and control the processors remotely from a PC.

We call it Remote Enabling System…

Via the local network or internet the in-house technician, the operator, or an external service technician is able to monitor, change settings and diagnose the condition of the processor, e.g. chemistry level, replenish and waste/water level, temperatures, or plate jam.

With the Remote Enabling System you can also send alarms of your own choice via e-mail or SMS when your processor is working unattended.
