The Drystar 3000 is a totally dry, large-format
hardcopy system for cost-effective,
decentralized applications.
Imaging right where you need it
The Drystar 3000’s extremely small footprint
and low power consumption combined with
low investment cost make it possible to print
your films right where you have always
wanted: next to you! There will always be room
for it in even the most space-restricted
environment to stand next to the application it
serves.
Cutting-edge thermal printing
With the Drystar 3000, you benefit from the
latest developments in thermal printing
technology.
The 14” wide print-head, combined with
sophisticated image processing software and
an on-line densitometer for consistency of
image quality, delivers diagnostic image quality
from first to last pixel.
The new TL direct thermal imaging films used
by the system are composed of a 175 micron
thick PET base, coated with silver salts and a
protective top layer. The PET base with rounded
corners ensures that the films can be handled
in the same way as regular X-ray films. The
silver-based imaging layer, which is not
sensitive to light, but only to very high
temperatures, guarantees low fog and high
contrast, combined with excellent image
stability. Finally, the protective top layer makes
the film resistant to scratches and moisture. In
short, precisely the combination of imaging
fidelity and physical robustness that is needed
in the hospital environment.
Designed for your ease of use
The Drystar 3000 printer, which is operated via
an integrated controller module, excels in
simplicity. There is no need for special film
supply magazines or light-protective
packaging. Films may be loaded into the printer
in daylight – it is easy as loading paper into an
office copier, and easy access makes film jam
clearance straightforward.
Connectivity
The Drystar 3000 may be used to serve just one
application if so desired, but it also features
functional modularity. Just like for the Scopix
LR 3300 laser imaging product line, multiple
inputs and network connectivity are integral
characteristics. The three direct inputs take any
combination of high-bandwidth video or
digital connection, and DICOM PMS is directly
supported via optional software. For
networking purposes an Ethernet interface is
included. The Drystar 3000 is fully compatible
with the Scopix LR 3300 and MG 3000 laser
imaging network and the Drystar 2000 dry
hardcopy system. And of course, the growth
path to other applications like Agfa’s Impax
archiving and communication systems is built in.
Printing options
With its capability to print on 14 x 17” or 11 x
14” films and the option to route images
automatically to the Drystar 2000, which is
Agfa’s state-of-the-art 8 x 10” printer for
colour and black and white, Agfa provides the
optimal solution for all your hardcopy needs.
The environmentally friendly system
The Drystar 3000 is also the answer to growing
ecological concerns. Since it is a dry system,
chemical supply and draining systems become
a thing of the past. Also, the packaging of the
Drystar films, consisting simply of a cardboard
box and a PE bag, can be fully recycled. These
features together with its low power
consumption mean that the Drystar 3000 is
friendly to the environment and to your budget.
