ZBE Chromira
Chromira Series PROFESSIONAL PHOTOGRAPHIC The first Chromira printer by ZBE Corporation, the Chromira 30, was created in 1998 to provide labs with an affordable path into digital imaging and are now the fastest selling digital LED printers in the world and from that success ZBE have produced a range of labs to enable a path to a greater digital path. At 300 PPI, the images produced with Chromira are of the highest photographic quality in the industry. Chromira is designed on a foundation of bottleneck-free technology, which means that the usual “front end” workstation is removed from the production process.

Chromira will print completely unattended until it is time to re-load the material.

INTRODUCING
ATECH HANDI MANUAL LAMINATING TOOLS The Atech Handi Manual Laminating line of tools are a great addition to any sign or print shop, even with a powered laminator. They are not intended to replace a laminator, but they do make it easier to laminate small graphics and can reduce waste by not having to change the roll on a laminator just to do an odd job.
All of our tools will laminate and mount pressure sensitive vinyl. The different sizes and types of tools make it possible to choose the right tool for the job. Sign makers and graphic houses will benefit by having a variety of tools to work with. The fabric on all of the tools are easy to replace when they get soiled, cut or worn out. There are five styles and many sizes to fit the needs of most sign shops.
The HANDI Rivet Tool
The HANDI Small Sign Tool
The HANDI Laminator Tool
The HANDI Cut Vinyl Tool
These tools are for use on small signs that don’t require the graphic to be rolled up to make them easy to handle.The Atech Rivet Tool has a padded edge with felt for going over obstacles such as rivets. Their lightweight and slim design make them easy to work with on small signs. The slim felt edge will apply application tape and vinyls.
The laminator tool has a roll holder for holding rolled up materials to make them easier to handle. This tool is used for graphics that are otherwise to long to handle unless they are rolled up. The Laminator Tool comes in sizes from 26” to 64”. It is primarily used for working with prints. It will mount cut vinyl but is lacking in the application of masking tape, It can be done but the other tools are better designed for applying transfer tape.
The HANDI Cradle Tool
The Cradle tool is the latest addition to the Atech Handi range of laminating tools. It is lightweight and is pushed without the need to pick it up. It does very well with application tape and is available in all the sizes of the other tools.

These tools are for use on small signs that don’t require the graphic to be rolled up to make them easy to handle. The Atech Small Sign Tool has a cotton covered edge for laminating. Their light weight and slim design make them easy to work with on small signs. The slim felt edge will apply application tape and vinyls.
The Cut Vinyl Tool looks very much like the laminator tool with the addition of black felt covering on both edges. Designed to work primarily with cut vinyl, it will apply transfer tape both by pushing the roll ahead of the tool or by placing the roll in the roll holder and applied off the back of the tool. This is the “jack of all trades” tool because it does it all. It comes in two sizes and is limited to 30” width of application.

The ISO system is based on three series:A sizes
for general printing and stationery. A4 is usually used for business stationery, brochures, booklets etc. A5 is commonly used for smaller items such as leaflets/ flyers etc. A6 is the international postcard size. A7 for labels etc. A8 for business cards
B sizes for posters and some larger envelopes C sizes for general envelopes or folders to contain A sizes. The full sheet in each series is designated by the number 0. The longer length is then halved to give 1, and halved again to give 2 and halved again to give 3 etc. So, A4 is half of A3, A5 is half of A4 etc. The A series is based on A0. The size, 841 x 1189, is one square metre in area. The weight of the paper is also based on the weight of one square metre in grammes, i.e. ‘gsm’. RA sizes SRA sizes
are slightly larger than A sizes, allowing the printer extra space on a sheet for grip and trim. are slightly larger than RA sizes, and allow for printed work which includes a ‘bleed’.
When expressing the measurements, care should be taken as traditionally the upright measure was given first and the horizontal measurement second. The British Standards Institute recommends giving the shorter measurement first and following the measurement with the letter L on a landscape format. A4 landscape would then be: 210 x 297 L mm.
