German printer orders Colora

German printing and publishing house Miller ordered a doublewide Colora press from Koenig & Bauer AG. The press will go on-edition next spring, KBA said.
The 75,000-copy-per-hour Berliner press will have a maximum web width of 49.5 inches, and include two KBA Pastomat C reelstands with KBA Patras M reel handling, two towers of H-type units for 4-over-4, a superstructure with two formers and a KF 3 jaw folder. The two turner bars will be engineered to accommodate 7/8 and 3/8 web leads for the production of half-covers and flying pages. The press will also boast a raft of automation modules, including ink pumping, two EAE control desks and color register control, to enhance productivity and print quality, KBA said.
