This machine has a characteristic of automatic platemaking with a speed of upto 40 plates per hour. This improves the quality of newsprint with accuracy, exposing more newsprint as compared to the manual process and saves time. A manually exposed plate has an ability to print one lakh copies, the plates exposed with an Agfa CTP (Plate Rite-2055vi-s) has the capability to expose three lakh copies.
