The middle of the 80’s were the hay days of Scitex foray into the Engineering Graphics Market. The company designed and sold the Response 280 system for civil engineering applications. That business unit was later sold to Toyo Ink.
This picture was taken at the Scitex booth at the Isratech show in Tel-Aviv, Israel, in 1984.
This was one of the first demonstrations of the Response 280 system for engineering solutions in the Cartography and Printed Circuit Boards applications.
In the picture, the ExScite Shmuel Dekel, then an application engineer at the Engineering Graphics group, is shaking hands with Israel’s President Haim Hertzog while visiting the show.
If any of you guys have a nice picture of the Response 280– please Email it to me.
