SUPERIA Newspaper Plates - Overview

Printing newspapers puts heavy demands on plates: they need to be quick to make and must deliver consistent quality right through long print runs. Fujifilm’s research and development team has created a range of plates that more than fulfill these criteria. Whatever plate-making system you use, there is a Fujifilm plate that is perfect for your needs.

Unlike other manufacturers that simply supply commercial printing plates to newspapers, Fujifilm has designed its plates to produce the best possible performance on newspaper presses – without compromise. All plates (LH-NN2, LP-NNV, Ecomaxx-VN, and Ecomaxx-TN) are dedicated newspaper plates.

Fujifilm plates use high sensitive coatings for increased productivity and imaging latitude.

Fujifilm plates have a wide processing latitude and can typically be developed in processors already installed on site, which saves money and increases flexibility.

Fujifilm’s coating technology offers wide exposure latitude and stable dot on press.

Not only do Fujifilm developers work longer, but processors are easier to clean, which means fewer man-hours cleaning processors and disposing of spent chemicals.

The range of dedicated newspaper plates has advanced handling performance.

Fujifilm photopolymer newspaper plates are superior in dot reproduction. Less dot gain makes adjustment of the calibration curve easy, allowing for consistent printing quality throughout the entire run.
