Dutch Printer Extends KBA Production Capacity
Dutch printing house Janssen Pers Rotatiedruk, a longstanding KBA customer based in Gennep, has ordered an extension to the single-width Continent web press it installed in 1999.
Over the past 10 years, KBA believes it has been a driver of innovation in waterless printing processes with the aim of standardising sheetfed and web offset production to deliver a repeatable, high level of excellence.
To that end the company said it has launched a succession of small-format and half-format sheetfed presses - the new Genius 52, 74 Karat DI offset and Rapida 74 Gravuflow - and a compact newspaper press with the Cortina.
The technological challenges involved in developing the individual products, which include temperature control, inking, plate life, environmental issues and cost-efficiency, and how they were overcome are also detailed in the issue, along with user reports and and examination of future prospects.
