i know i should post this thread on the job thing, but if i cant find anyone i will need some help from the experts in here that work on komoris.

thanks for the reply, this is the list of inks ive been using, hostmann rapida, hostmann resista, Midwest inks, superior inks, F100, and they didn't deliver, it is a must for me to do the front side and let it dry since im doing about 350K sheets with different arts on both sides, so it is super...

Erik, with all respect, i found very childish your attitude towards my reply, i just wanted to post my results, and my concerns to a wider audience, it has nothing to do with the ITB, the reply was about my doubts about how the process really works, thanks to alois, for posting all that info it...

i wanted to test Erik´s ITB on a komori 40" but before that, i needed to prove to my boss that i was right and that Erik was right so i started on small presses, and started studying the way ink is transfered and i noticed that the problem we have is that we cant really control the volume of...

im changing the preventive maintenance in both of the komori presses, one is a L428 age 92 and the other a L640 age 90, the preventive plan i have in my hands is completely useless, i want to start from scratch, but i have no time to analyze each single component on the press to estimate times...

Thanks for the reply, ive done everything and i even let the sheet sit over for over 48 hours, and this gave me worst results, actually we found out that the best cure for this is making the front and back the same day in that case we have no problem because the ink still fresh, i believe that...

im using a one step product from allied, its called all star, and like a every other offset product there is no label telling me what amount of alcohol substitute is on it, but i mix 3% on my water, that means i have 4.8PH and 1200Us

i understand that sicpa is now part of flint group, at least the commercial inks, is this right? how did you determined which ink was the one giving you trouble, im planning on doing some solids of each color and using the roller for the quick pick test ill try to determine which one picks up...

thanks for the reply, yes i was using hostmann resista and hostmann rapida, both of them did the same problem, i also tried inks from superior and from midwest ink, all of them produced the same defect, midwest ink was my best bet because of the soy base body of the ink but didnt deliver...

Good day fellow printers, a couple of months back i posted a problem in which the ink i was using on bond paper was picking up on the impression cylinder, the ink that was being remove from the paper was the ink on the front side, while we were printing the back side, i tried different types of...

why you cut the packing to the size of the sheet, ive never done that ever, does this procedure gives any advantages?

i did have the same issues that you are experiencing, has it been raining near you? im assuming that you usually get a straight line from which the binder takes the folded sheet the scuffing it happens when the paper that is in contact with the stainless steel table is drag by the grippers, this...

no they have no scales, this is the idea i have, i want to make 6 plates, with only register axises on them, and from there try to achieve register, from there i will go to one of the cylinders and try to set it to zero, well not zero but 0 degree slope, and that clamp should be my zero, and...

we have a old komori L640 and it takes from 60 to 200 min to achieve register on all 6 units, that time is when we are lucky enough, there are no "zero" set on the units, i want to put all the unit in the mechanical zero and then mark it, so every time we have a new job we put them set no zero...

yes i do, if you want more info please contact me at [email protected]

why are you interested in those places? haven't you thought about Guatemala or El salvador cheaper and with ISO or Gracol Cert.

Actually Vlad Canada is right in everything, i believe the problem comes from the distributor, there was this one time in which they did had the size of plate that we needed, so their solution was to open a box of new plates with bigger size and then cut it to the size we needed they did that...

do you know were can i find a demo? i couldnt find any on afga's site

i was told yesterday that there is a software that makes your color proof more real, its the first time ive heard this, this software gives "dots" to the colorproof match, so it will be really close to the real thing. do you know the name of the software, is it compatible with AGFA sherpa 24...

im having so many problems with the lithostar ultra plates for the Galileo V5 CTP, there is always something new, and they are not reliable at all, we've been searching for the real problem and the conclusion was the plates, they came to the shop already blinded, so its pretty frustrating and we...
