Four-Unit Gapless Web Press For Magazine Printer

A new Goss Sunday 2000 press system has been order by Journal Graphics for its Portland, Oregon (USA) plant.

The company will install the four-unit web press, its first with gapless blanket technology, beginning in June.

Goss International will supply a Contiweb CS splicer, Ecocool dryer with integrated chill rolls, PFF 3.2 pinless folder and Omnicon controls.

The installation will include a provision for a potential second five-unit Sunday 2000 press to be added in the future and duplexed with the first press.

Journal Graphics operates several Goss presses including M-500 and Community SSC systems.

The company specialises in publication and magazine printing and was the first company in America west of the Mississippi River to install a heatset web press.

Journal Graphics' president, Phil Bridge, said: "Beyond the advantages of the gapless Sunday platform, we feel Goss International is a top-notch organisation.

The company makes it a priority to understand our business and it has continuously delivered technology and support to make us more competitive.".
