Komori characterizes Highcon’s digital finishing solutions as the “perfect complement” to its fleet of offset presses as well as its new Impremia IS29, 29-inch inkjet, sheetfed UV printing system. In addition to removing bottlenecks in the post-press process, the Highcon solutions also deliver increased design flexibility with their ability to produce intricate cutouts, etching, unique scoring and cut-over creasing – ideal for printers who want to offer a wide range of applications, from unique packaging solutions to customization with variable-data cutting, web-to-pack and even 3D modeling. “We’re very excited about this partnership because it underscores Komori’s commitment to helping our customers develop a successful path to becoming a print media enterprise with the ability to cover both analogue and digital workflows – from print to finishing,” said Jacki Hudmon, Senior VP of New Business Development for Komori America. “It will allow our customers greater flexibility for delivering innovative applications and a faster time to market,”
Ron Kukla, Highcon Sales Director for the Americas added, “The partnership with Komori America Corporation will help us reach a wide range of digital and conventional customers. The recognition of our revolutionary technology by Komori, with their 100 years of focus on reliability and quality, is a powerful endorsement. We look forward to the installation of the Highcon Euclid III at the Komori demo center towards the end of the year.”
