Me & my: Kodak NexPress SX3300

Sometimes the relationship between the sales and production sides of a business can be fraught due to conflicting priorities and many a mutual misunderstanding about exactly what the other does, how and why.

Sakurai OL472ED

Sakurai's first footsteps into the four-colour B2 market came in 1989 in the shape of its OL472ED press. At the time of its introduction, it was one of the very first B2 presses to have double diameter impression and transfer cylinders in the seven o'clock configuration. Sakurai UK operations director Mark Jennings says: "This layout has subsequently been adopted by all manufacturers. This meant that when we first launched the machine, it had a considerable advantage."

When it arrived on Valentine’s Day it could almost have been love at first sight. Like all love interests, however, Swallowmax’s new Komori Lithrone G29 H-UV came with expectations and pressures, moments of torrid drama and the occasional foible to try even the most attentive of press minders.

  • Thursday, September 23, 2010
Unveiled at Drupa 2008, the Rapida was the first B2 press that used performance features and innovations found on the manufacturer's larger presses.

Me & my: Heidelberg Speedmaster XL 106 LE-UV

When Superior Creative Services installed a Muller Martini Concepta 8 web offset press to handle its growing document business, this led it to also replace its 10-year-old sheetfed Komori press with the latest technology in the form of a B1-format Heidelberg Speedmaster XL 106.

MAN Roland 500

In the early '90s, when MAN Roland launched its 700 press, many of its customers were a little apprehensive. The new layout was not what Roland customers were used to and it took a number of years for them to build their trust in the model.

MAN Roland 700 DirectDrive

MAN Rolands latest contender in the short-run market was given the kind of launch usually reserved for a Formula One car a darkened room with strobe lights and the machine hidden under covers. Once the wraps came off, the 700 DirectDrive press was revealed and MAN Roland started to shout about it.

Komori Lithrone 526

Since its establishment 84 years ago, Komori has been producing offset printing products. Its original flagship presses were the 40in and 29in Lithrone S Series, and the Sprint Series sheetfed offset machines.

Ryobi 754WD

When Nigel Hunt at Dorset-based Blackmore was choosing a new B2 press, the size of its carbon footprint and of its plates were equally important

MAN Roland Ultima 700

Luxury packaging is a buoyant market. Largely untouched by the ravages of commoditisation that have such a stranglehold in the commercial sector, packaging printers have protected their margins effectively against falling run lengths and shorter turnaround times by adding more and more value to the average carton or pack. And now MAN Roland is giving the packaging printer even more firepower with the Roland Ultima 700, a new press aimed at completing all the various coating, printing and foiling jobs on a standard carton in a single, and therefore even more profitable, pass.
