The Plate Rotator with Lift-Up Entry Conveyor (shown) modules control plate orientation for proper transport and entry into the in-line punch/bender, sort-stacker, or elevator modules. They can pick up the plates and physically rotate them from overhead or from below. Generally rotation is 90 or 180 degrees.

Lift-Up Entry Conveyors are attachable to any side. Lift-Up Entry Conveyors receive the imaged plate from the CTP Plate Processor or post-bake oven. They can be adjusted to any height and “Lift-Up” out of the way for operators to easily pass through and around the CTP Processor or Plate Management System (an industry exclusive feature).
