New Products And Glimpse Of Future From Goss
Goss International announced that it will have a major presence at Drupa 2004 in May and will present future concepts to drive print.
The press is also equipped with a Goss Contiweb CS splicer and Ecocool dryer with integrated chill rolls.
It has a pinless combination folder, as well as a sheeter to produce a full range of commercial and publication products.
Trade Secret Printing's chief executive officer, Dave Harb, said: "This system offers unique productivity and cost-saving advantages that we will transfer to print buyers to make them more competitive.
The print quality will allow us to shift work between web and sheetfed and the make-ready and waste reduction features will allow us to run jobs with 5,000 or even fewer copies on the web." Harb added that the expansion in to web production is a natural move for the company to meet growing demand and to provide customers with more comprehensive options.
He explained: "We did our homework and studied press options from several suppliers but the Goss International organisation and the widespread success of Sunday presses gave us confidence.
We also visited several other printers running Sunday 2000 presses.
The print quality and the make-readies we saw during demonstrations really convinced us.".
