Dan: Yes, if you upgraded to AX 7.0, you can still use that version of Preps. And, if you got our imposition module, you could use both. Sorry for quick response - I'm at the show. Regards,

Adam: Tomorrow at GraphExpo in Chicago, we are launching our latest version of ApogeeX - V. 7.0. The new imposition module was previewed at Ipex, and was a bit hit. Also - a change event such as yours is a great opportunity to take a fresh look at your goals. We're finding wide adoption of our...

Kevin - perhaps an edit is in order... <snip> - although SOME digital violet plates still use pre-heat <snip> Our LAP-V never has, and never will use pre-heat, although our violet photopolymer - conventional digital and chem-free - do employ pre-heat. Regards,

Armya: I would better characterize Energy Elite as having a relatively wide exposure latitude. Regards,

AR: Digital plate technology is still quite proprietary, and one size doesn't fit all. Get references for similar applications, and then run some tests to see if a different technology delivers benefit. Regards.

ar: Do you mean dual layer, rather than double coat? Our :Energy Elite positive no-bake plate is an example of a dual layer technology. AGFA.com - :Energy Elite The top layer is thermally-sensitive, and the bottom layer is more chemically robust to stand up to a broad range of press...

Mike: Say "Hi" to Daryle Lamonica! Regards, (Bullard '72)

Tony: I see that you are with a large organization. Last year, Agfa and Luescher announced a cooperative certification of our :Aluva plates and Luescher's Xpose! UV platesetter... a link is below. AGFA.com - Lüscher AG and Agfa Graphics N.V. announce Joint Marketing Agreement for New :Aluva...

Erick: I'm a bit confused... You currently sell these plates... are you a plate service bureau, or you are a distributor? In either case, work with your local contact for roll-out opportunities in your area. I believe John is your local contact. Regards,

Ummm... Kevin - You're sounding like me now! We first came out with our Sublima XM screening (Hybrid-ish) for newspaper applications. Regards,

Thanks Vic: Going chem-free is not just about driving out cost in processing, but also driving out labor and variables in the process. Good luck in your quest,

Vic: Have your local rep. give you local user contacts, as since this might be a new venture for you, you might want to have a cooperative relationship to help in labor load-balancing and tips and tricks. Regards,

Vic: Interesting question. I suspect you're in the pressroom, or, you've only been supplied press-ready plates. The biggest difference between the two plates is that LHPJ is a traditionally-processed positive plate, like our Energy Elite, and the Azura is a chemistry-free plate - where it...

Gordo: <snip>... so we end up stomping over to the kiosk... <snip> Stomping in Birkenstocks is not good for the sole. (So, how do we in the lower 48 enter a postal code whilst visitin' Canada?) Regards,

BillJ: Indeed we have the widest choice of violet technologies on the market. In this case, I believe Print Manic was asking about our new :Azura V chem free plates recently launched at Ipex... a violet photopolymer-based plate. This of course is not to be confused with our...

Thanks Gordo. Contrary to SIMON's experience, AM screens, and especially Sublima for pastel tones, tend to excel with flat tints. Simon - something doesn't sound right. Have you had Agfa in to double-check exposure, etc.? If you can hold a 2% dot at 175 AM, then Sublima at 240 shouldn't be...

RVNG: Assuming you are using the configuration manual feed, on-line processing, and with UPC the plate-turner: 17.72 x 11.5" (450 x 292 mm) If you are working manual feed, off line processing, then: 15.7 x 11.5" (400 x 292mm) If you are using the Automated Platemanager - then the smallest...

Dean: Ten months later, and available in :Apogee 7, perhaps this is the answer you were looking for: AGFA.com - Agfa's Apogee Impose Saves Time and Money in Prepress Regards,

Hessel: :N92-VCF is designed primarily for newspaper applications. Here's a profile of an early adopter: AGFA.com - Corelio (Newspaper Printer) :N92-VCF Our implementation of chem-free violet photopolymer plates for the commercial printing market is the :Azura V product, currently being...

Rhonda: As you have just read, Ecomaxx-V is not a develop on press application - it is an off-press clean-out system, very similar to Azura V, and if you remove the pre-heat section, similar too in process to Azura TS - our thermal chem-free plate. Regards,
