First 4x4 Double-Circumference Press For Mexico

A Goss International product story
Edited by the Printingtalk editorial team Oct 25, 2007

Imprenta Ajusco in Mexico City will be the first to install the new 4x4 M-800 double-circumference commercial web press from Goss next year.

Imprenta Ajusco will install a four-unit M-800 press to print a range of commercial products, as well as books and heatset tabloid newspapers.

Goss will equip the system with a Contiweb CS splicer, Ecocool dryer and Omnicon controls.

Imprenta Ajusco installed Goss M-600 presses in 2001 and 2003.

The Goss M-800 press, which complements its gapless Sunday 4000 press models, is claimed to print at up to 2,200 feet per minute (11 metres per second) and is equipped with a JF-70 Collect folder.

The new model utilises what Goss described as proven design elements from other models of the company's range, including Sunday presses.

The M-800 press uses conventional, flat blankets and incorporates several features from gapless Goss Sunday presses.

They include inking and dampening systems, multi-drive, an in-line cylinder stack and bearer-less cylinders.

The JF-70 Collect folder allows the press to provide up to 35,000 32-page signatures in collect production or 70,000 16-page signatures in straight production, added Goss.

Goss International's chief executive officer, Bob Brown, said: "The new M-800 press provides another option, in addition to our advanced gapless presses and introduces a unique combination of value and performance advantages to the double-circumference commercial press sector." He added that the 32-page M-800 press can complement 16-page Goss M-600 and M-500 systems.

Brown explained: "Commercial printing facilities that operate both 4x4 and 2x4 presses can gain efficiency and product versatility, whilst still maintaining a single web width and paper supply.".
