ABB works together with ProImage to provide you with Newsway, a unique production management system for the entire plate production process — from page input to physical plate position in the press.

- Integration of existing resources, such as RIPs or proofing systems
- Optional integrated Harlequin RIP, soft proofing and hard proofing functions
- Comprehensive data processing (stitch, merge, text burn, etc.)
