During the last years, the Freie Presse in Chemnitz has completely modernised its production installations. At the heart of the operation are the three highly-automated Colorman XXL autoprint presses. But the printing centre is also among the most modern of its kind in Europe in the area of paper and plate logistics.

At the Freie Presse in Chemnitz plate production is done on Kodak New Generation thermal CTP imaging systems. After punching and bending on a Nela VCP system, the plates are taken (with PlateFlow control) via conveyor belts and a lift directly to the printing towers, where they are fed into sorting stackers. An operator arranges the plates in racks in the printing unit, ready for the APL robot that removes them from the rack and mounts them on the plate cylinder.

Bei der Freien Presse in Chemnitz werden die Platten über Kodak New Generation Thermo-CTP-Belichter produziert. Nach dem Stanzen und Abkanten über eine Nela VCP-Anlage werden sie via Nela-Logistik (mit PlateFlow-Steuerung) über Förderbänder und Plattenlifte direkt an die Drucktürme befördert und in Sortierstaplern abgelegt. Ein Bediener ordnet die Platten in Racks in der Druckeinheit, bereit für den APL-Roboter, der sie aus dem Rack entnimmt und auf den Plattenzylinder auflegt.
