SAATI LTS 6012 Direct Laser Image & Exposure Unit
Product Details:
SAATI LTS 6012
The SAATI LTS 6012 is a self-contained, high-efficiency direct laser imaging and exposure unit designed to enhance precision and streamline production. Its vertical, glassless design eliminates the need for vacuum or film positives, making it a reliable choice for screen printing operations.
Screen Capacity: Holds screens up to 41" x 63" or two screens up to 23" x 31" simultaneously.
Resolution: Features a 96-laser array with resolutions up to 2540 DPI, ideal for producing sharp, detailed images for standard designs and most screen printing applications.
Exposed Emulsion Height: Offers a maximum emulsion height of 23.6 inches, which is well-suited for smaller designs. Note: This leaves 2.2 inches of open mesh at both the top and bottom of a standard 23" x 31" frame, which may require taping for shops that rely on emulsion to block ink flow.
Ease of Use: Compatible with various RIP programs and supports 1-bit TIFF file formats through its intuitive software interface.
The SAATI LTS 6012 delivers reliable performance and detail for emulsions and stencil films, making it an excellent solution for shops focused on standard designs and efficient workflows. For shops requiring larger emulsion coverage or handling intricate designs, the SAATI 8012 may offer additional benefits.

SAATI LTS 6012 vs. 8012: Which is Right for Your Shop?
SAATI 6012 vs. 8012 LTS: Which One Fits Your Shop Best?
Choosing between the SAATI 6012 and 8012 LTS systems depends on your shop's specific needs, including design size, precision, and production volume. Here's a detailed comparison to help you decide:
Which Is Right for You?
Choose the 6012 if you primarily work with smaller designs and don’t mind taping screens as needed.
Choose the 8012 if you require a larger emulsion area or want to minimize taping and setup time for your screens.
Understanding your shop’s workflow and production requirements can help you make the best decision.
1. Higher Resolution for Enhanced Detail
8012 Advantage: Equipped with a 128-laser array and a resolution range of 847 to 5080 DPI, the 8012 delivers sharper and more precise images.
6012 Specs: Features a 96-laser array with a resolution range of 847 to 2540 DPI.
Best Fit: If your shop works with intricate designs, fine halftones, or needs extreme detail, the 8012 is the better option. The 6012 still offers excellent resolution for standard screen printing jobs.
2. Larger and Dual Screen Capability
Screen Size: Both units can expose screens up to 41" x 63".
Dual Exposure: The 8012 can expose two screens (25" x 36") simultaneously, boosting productivity for high-volume shops with smaller screens.
Best Fit: The dual capability of the 8012 is ideal for shops that require faster turnover on smaller screens.
3. Best for Precision and High-Volume
8012 Advantage: Its superior resolution and ability to expose multiple screens make it the better fit for shops handling complex designs or operating in high-demand production settings.
6012 Fit: Best suited for shops focused on standard designs or those with a lower emphasis on intricate details.
4. Exposed Emulsion Height
When considering the exposed emulsion height, think about how it fits your frame size and workflow:
SAATI 6012 LTS
Exposed Emulsion Height: 23.6 inches.
Fits Screen Size: Works with a 23" x 31" frame (inside frame height: 28 inches).
Open Mesh Area: Leaves 4.4 inches of open mesh (2.2 inches at the top and bottom).
Considerations:
Shops that use exposed emulsion to block ink flow may need to tape screens due to the larger open mesh area.Ideal for smaller designs that fit comfortably within the 23.6-inch emulsion height.
SAATI 8012 LTS
Exposed Emulsion Height: 31.5 inches.
Fits Screen Size: Works with a 25" x 36" frame (inside frame height: 33 inches).
Open Mesh Area: Leaves 1.5 inches of open mesh (.75 inches at the top and bottom).
Considerations:
Provides a larger exposed emulsion area, reducing the need for additional taping compared to the 6012.
A better option for shops requiring more emulsion coverage, even with smaller frames.
All in All:
The 6012 is a reliable choice for shops with standard screen printing needs and smaller designs.
The 8012 offers advanced resolution, larger emulsion coverage, and higher productivity, making it the best option for shops focused on precision and high-volume production.
