eighty screens in eighty minutes (DTS cons and pros)
Donnie:
pffft... I once did eighty push ups in eight days.

It seems in Tony's circumstances CTS would only be viable if they changed their procedures so that all screens are printed at least one day before they need to be exposed.
We try to have all screens done and ready atleast one day in advance but even for a shop our size it never always works out that way.

Most of my screens are hardly even dry from being washed out when they go on press.

There is nothing 'fast' about DTS or Auto coating machines.
There is however gobs of quality and precision that spill over into easier production settings.
alan802:
The vast majority of their work is already done with all the film already printed out and ready to shoot, so switching to DTS now would be a step in the wrong direction for a fairly long period of time. We do so many repeats that it has me wondering if we'll benefit as much as a newer shop without 5K jobs catalogued via film hanging on the wall. It would take an average of 2 minutes to print that screen via DTS or 10 seconds to tape the film on the screen.
