FUJIFILM announces new positive thermal CTP media for the Commercial Printing Market

Dusseldorf, Germany, January 26, 2004
Fuji Photo Film Co., Ltd.

Fuji Photo Film Co., Ltd. announces a new positive thermal CTP plate, Brillia LH-PJ, for the commercial printing market.

Brillia LH-PJ is a new generation of positive thermal plate with unique features which match the growing demand for more durability and printability in both plate making and on-press performance.

FUJIFILM initially introduced Brillia LH-PJ in Asian countries and is now set to expand the distribution of this product into other areas of the world in accordance with the startup of new CTP plate production facilities in China, USA and the Netherlands.

Features:

  • Excellent tone reproduction
    FM screening 10micron dot compatible
  • Higher durability
    Scratch resistance, UV ink printing, and chemical resistance without post baking
  • Higher printability
    Wider ink and water balance and better scum resistance

Brillia LH-PJ inherits excellent tone reproduction quality from the widely used Brillia LH-PI. Other unique features such as high durability and printability have been achieved thanks to new double coating and graining technologies.

The new double coating technology has made it possible to achieve much-improved durability on-press without sacrificing tone reproduction. At the same time FUJIFILM's new multi graining technology, which allows additional micro grains on the aluminum surface, can provide wider ink/water balance and reduced scumming problems with plate.

Specification:

  • Type: Positive working
  • Light source: 830nm infrared laser
  • Sensitivity: 120-140mj ⁄ ㎠
  • Resolution: 1 - 99% (on plate) at 200lpi
  • Run length: 200,000 impressions with normal ink
    50,000 - 100,000 impressions (UV ink unbaked)
    70,000 - 150,000 impressions (UV ink baked)
