AZ Litho Purchases Six-color Komori Lithrone G40 advance with Coater and LED-UV for Enhanced Efficiencies

Komori’s GL640 advance, AZ Litho’s second Komori press, was chosen for the enhanced automation that makes it possible to run at maximum speeds on a wide range of stocks and offer special effects that produce products that stand out from the competition.

“A major portion of our business is in packaging, children's books and instruction sheets and manuals for various industries,” said Laura Davis, vice president at AZ Litho. “One of the many reasons we're excited about this press is that it gives us the ability to create special effects and embellishments with specialty UV coatings and reticulating varnishes for these types of projects. We have a children's book publisher that we can now offer some cool special effects. For example, if it's a book about snakes, we can provide a raised tactile experience that replicates the feel of snakeskin.”
