ROLLING MEADOWS, IL—  Komori announced its latest web offset press, the System G38, as a high-productivity solution for the magazine, catalog, publication and book markets. The System G38 boasts a speed of 30,000 sheets per hour and Komori’s proprietary H-UV curing system. The press also includes an inline combination folder, removing the traditional offline folder step in the bindery seen in traditional sheetfed production processes. Updated automation reduces makeready and non-productive time, allowing the G38 to tackle relatively short runs. With its high speed, fast makeready and integrated folding, the G38 can out-produce traditional sheetfed production of signatures nearly 3:1. The press is shorter than conventional presses, produces far less waste than conventional presses and consumes less power, cutting C02 emissions by 75% and allowing for an ozone-less curing process.
