ECRM TigerCat CTP systems present a new opportunity for commercial printers. Combining unprecedented value
with the highest level of image quality, complete automation and daylight operation, TigerCats easily outstrip
any competition.
TigerCats are available in two different models with an upgrade path from one to the other:
TigerCat 2: 2-page format up to 24.0" x 24.0" (610 x 610 mm). Field upgradeable to a full 4-page format.
TigerCat 4: 24.3" x 32.5" format (618 x 826 mm) for 4-page signatures and posters.
Quality - TigerCats help maintain and build your customer base by ensuring cleaner and crisper printing.
Direct imaging provides enhanced dot definition at all resolutions with finer control over highlights and
shadows.
Versatility - TigerCats are built to be flexible, imaging a wide range of silver and photo-polymer
metal plates for 2- and 4-page presses. Using interchangeable plate cassettes, each TigerCat can image
numerous plate sizes within its format range. With a selection of resolutions, an upgrade path from
2- to 4-page formats, and a choice of laser types, the TigerCat can be configured for many different
commercial applications.
Productivity - The combination of a curved imaging bed, which makes plate handling much easier than
conventional drum designs, high quality optics and simple plate loading/unloading optimizes quality and
consistently delivers high throughput.
Automation - TigerCats operate in daylight using a light-tight cassette or automated plate feeder
(red and green models only). Unmanned productivity is provided by direct integration into a digital
workflow and direct connection to any suitable processor. TigerCats allow you to optimize your press
productivity, keeping several different presses operating efficiently.
Workflow - ECRM offers a wide choice of workflow solutions for the TigerCats, ranging from a Tiff server
to MAXWorkFlow, a complete digital CTP production system. No matter what the choice, ECRM solutions ensure
commercial printers an open, productive and cost-effective workflow.
Value of ownership - TigerCats are the highest value 2- and 4-page platesetters for the commercial
printing market. They maximize the benefits of CTP by bringing you savings in time and materials, all
at a price you can afford. In addition to providing fast payback, they are built for reliability,
upgradeability and ease of service, keeping operating costs low. TigerCats are an excellent long-term
investment ... the natural selection for commercial printers.
