Luxel V-8

Compatible with all common B1 and B2 press sizes with a maximum plate size of 1160mm x 960mm
Suitable for a wide range of web and sheetfed printing applications, the violet Luxel V-8 offers a highly flexible format size. With a maximum plate size of 1160mm x 960mm x 0.3mm, the Luxel V-8 is compatible with all B1 and B2 presses. In addition, the smallest size of 500mm x 400mm x 0.15mm further extends the systems flexibility. Optional integrated punching enables the production of press-ready plates for most commercial sheetfed presses. Custom punches are available, as is a range of offline transfer punches to meet all formats.

Plate production speeds of up to 32 x B1 plates per hour at 2400dpi allow unrivalled plate turnaround
With a two laser configuration, Fujifilm's Luxel V-8 delivers up to 32 B1 plates per hour at 2400dpi, 38 at 1800dpi and 43 at 1200dpi.

Easy to use, service and maintain
Advanced technology and its application to simplify machine operation is one of Fujifilm's strengths. An innovative menu-driven, touch screen interface features icons and graphics for quick and easy machine operation and maintenance. The maintenance and serviceability of the system has also been designed with the use of remote diagnostics in mind.

Designed and manufactured for exceptional reliability
Fujifilm's engineers designed the Luxel V-8 to be a highly reliable plate production system. Built using many proven elements from its predecessor, the Luxel V-9600CTP, it easily copes with long shifts. Having a high-speed platesetting solution is only an advantage if the system keeps working day in and day out. That's why Fujifilm have focused on driving OUT complexity and designing IN reliability from day one of the product's development.

Lower cost of ownership
A significant benefit enjoyed by Luxel V-8 users is the low cost of ownership. The use of single or dual, low cost violet laser diodes enables higher levels of plate production without incurring the expense of maintaining 32 or 64 independent thermal laser diodes. In addition, the use of Brillia LP-NV means that systems are kept in production for up to 8 weeks without down time for processor cleaning.

Integrated, cost-effective, high-quality plate output solution
The violet Luxel V-8 platesetter is complemented by Fujifilm's commercial violet plate, Brillia LP-NV. Manufactured with quality, speed and flexibility as its major benefits, the Luxel V-8 together with LP-NV will form a powerful combination for printers looking for cost-effective, high-quality plate production.

Unique Fujifilm Co-Res screening delivers quality and productivity gains
Customers needing to produce plates at 175lpi without the normal overheads of larger file sizes and lower productivity can benefit from Fujifilm's Co-Res screening. Through the use of intelligent screening algorithms and the system's ability to image significantly faster at lower resolutions, up to 43 B1 plates per hour can be produced. Designed to meet commercial print requirements using conventional 175lpi linescreens, quality benefits are particularly evident with rosettes and vignettes.

Low cost, entry level model with a range of upgrade options
The Luxel V-8 semi-auto can be upgraded to increase both productivity and automation. The addition of a second laser will boost the maximum productivity from 28 pph to 43 pph. Automation can be increased with the addition of single or multi-cassette autoloaders.

PRO-V Ready
The Luxel V-8 is fully compatible with Fujifilm's Brillia PRO-V chemistry free violet photopolymer plate.

HD Option:
The Luxel V-8 is available with a 'High Definition' option that gives improved tonal range and smoothness, especially when using fine AM or FM screening
