Komori adds Lithrone GX40P perfector to press lineup

Komori Corporation has added the new Lithrone GX40 perfector GX40P to its portfolio of Lithrone 40-inch sheetfed presses suitable for double-sided, one-pass and straight multicolour printing.

Featuring a three double-sized cylinder perfecting mechanism, the GX40P’s impression cylinder, transfer cylinder and perfecting cylinder are each double-sized to avoid stress on the paper. Simplified and highly rigid, use of the new perfecting mechanism ensures high-speed, stable two-sided printing at speeds of 18,000 sheets per hour for both single- and double-sided printing, the press manufacturer explains. Additionally, the GX40P boasts environmentally- and workplace-friendly printing that saves energy and space and reduces exhaust heat.
 
Komori’s GX40P offers a variety of options designed to enhance productivity, such as Parallel Makeready to shorten makeready times and Autopilot for non-stop automation from test printing to production printing. The A-APC (Asynchronous Automatic Plate Changing System), PDC-SX (Spectral Print Density Control – SX model) and PQA-S (inline Print Quality Assessment System) can also be added to make additional quality and productivity improvements possible, the company notes.

The new Lithrone GX40P perfector is now available through Komcan Inc., the exclusive distributor of Komori presses in Canada.
