Dez.. 2000 Zeichen: VM/ER Sperrvermerk: Bilder: 2 Blatt (insgesamt): 2 Italians investing in double-circumference presses KBA Compacta 618 for Coptip Industrie Grafiche s.c.ar.l. in Modena, Italy A healthy and dynamic global economy is always a sound basis for strong demand for commercial web offset presses. One of the most sought-after double-circumference presses is currently the KBA Compacta 618. In August next year just one such 48-page Compacta press is to be delivered to the firm of Coptip Industrie Grafiche in Modena on the southern side of the plain of the river Po, one of the rivers which forms the southern part of the great lagoon of Venice. The printing house was founded in 1920 when several local printers in the vicinity of Modena joined forces to form a co-operative. Although initially concentrating on sheet-fed production, the company has since focussed increasingly on web-fed operations and is today a well-equipped partner of choice providing a complete service spectrum from pre-press through to bookbinding. The new press has a cylinder circumference of 1,197mm (47.13in) – quite typical of presses in Italy – and will be supplied with reels via the Patras A automatic reel logistics system and the Pastomat RC automatic reelstand. The C618 features four printing units, KBA Drivetronic shaftless drives throughout, reduced lock-up slot – 2– on blanket and plate cylinders, a high performance hot-air dryer with afterburner, an efficient chill-roller stand and a turner-bar superstructure for up to 3 ribbons. The press is configured with the automatically adjustable P5 pin folder featuring an optional folding-jaw cylinder to furnish the second parallel cross fold. Together with a comprehensive turner-bar arrangement, quarterfold and quarterfold transfer, this provides Coptip with production flexibility to accommodate even the most demanding customer requirements. One-stop printing house Coptip's compelling business strategy is focussed on deploying state-of-the-art technology to achieve top quality products at market-beating prices. The modern C618 commercial web press fits this corporate strategy like a glove and boosts production capacity and flexibility to boot. Coptip boasts a gamut of equipment to provide customers with an efficient one-stop printing service.
