Plates - Newspaper - Overview

The SUPERIA Ecomaxx-TN is a true no-process plate and allows environmentally conscious printers the ability to use high quality thermal plates without processing chemicals. Sustainability is not only a key issue for printers today, but it’s also one for Fujifilm who has dedicated years of R&D efforts to removing the processing stage from the print production workflow – the result is a true no-process plate with extremely high quality print characteristics.

No processing means the elimination of processing chemicals and the associated costs, saving the customer significant time and money – all without compromise in quality. Compatible with most thermal platesetters, Fujifilm’s Superia Ecomaxx-TN is a non-ablative plate that carries a latent image with distinct contrast, allowing for simple inspection after imaging.

MultiGrain technology provides unsurpassed ink and water balance and savings on press. Supporting run lengths of up to 100,000 impressions, the SUPERIA Ecomaxx-TN will comfortably meet the demands of most commercial printers while minimizing impact on our environment.

• True processless technology allows the plate to be imaged and mounted directly on press for immediate use
• Higher polymer sensitivity results in faster imaging
• MultiGrain surface structure for optimum ink/water balance
• 1-99% at 200 lpi conventional and 300 lpi FM and hybrid screening technologies
• No ablation debri

LH-NN2 Dedicated high speed photopolymer plate for thermal laser platesetters

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.

• Negative working
• Sensitivity designed for high throughput PPH thermal applications
• Long, clean developer cycles
• Durable image layer for extra run length

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.

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.vering thorough clean-out for efficient on press performance.

Fujifilm’s coating technology offers wide exposure latitude and stable dot on press.
Better chemistry saves time.
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. Both LP-NNV and FNE can be handled under yellow safelight

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.

• Top-coated matte surface allows quick film drawdown that speeds up production, and virtually eliminates halation
• Diazo polymer delivers fast exposure speed for high throughput and true reproduction characteristics
• Aqueous developer provides a clean operating environment and wide operating latitude while delivering thorough clean-out for efficient on press performance
• Fast roll-up, clean restarts, wide ink/water balance performance and good scum resistance

Fujiflm LP-NNV has a new emulsion providing wide imaging and processing latitudes giving repeatable, dependable printed results.

First launched at Ipex 2002, Fujifilm’s violet photopolymer technology offers benchmark quality and cost of ownership performance, and is now being successfully used by many print companies all around the world. LP-NNV represents the very latest evolution of this technology, building on years of R&D and manufacturing expertise in violet photopolymer plate production.

The new violet LP-NNV plate has been designed to stand up to the rigorous demands of tomorrows' press hall. With most CTP plates, the image will sharpen or reduce in size during the print run because of the aggressive press conditions. LP-NNV has enhanced properties to resist image sharpening enabling the printed copy to remain consistent during the print run.

The new LP-NNV plate works with the existing family of plate developers providing a clean, low maintenance processing environment. Added to this is the low chemical replenishment requirement giving a winning combination.

• Negative working photopolymer
• High sensitivity supports very high PPH during peak production
• Superior on-press performance
• Long, clean developer cycles

• Lo-chem system reduces pH level of processing system
• No water rinse option for less system effluent
• Simple, clean maintenance for less operator burden
• Wide exposure latitude provides imaging stability and repeatability
• Fast roll-up, clean restarts, wide ink/water balance performance, and good scum resistance
