"Square" web printing press (on)

The printing industry defines a half-web press as a web-fed offset web press, but the web of a narrow web press is not limited to the open web, but has the flexibility to change the print web. In terms of printing format, many web presses are smaller than the actual half-web press format, but the real half-web press is a half-page (8-page) web press. The boundaries between half web presses and narrow web presses are always vague.
With the improvement of traditional full-web web presses and the development of sheet-fed presses, their original advantages and adaptability in the new situation are also constantly improving. At present, the economic advantages of sheet-fed presses have been improved. Extending to long-run print jobs, full-web presses are also better at handling the short runs than ever before, which poses a huge crisis of survival for half-web presses.
The industry experts in the "half web" printing market believe that straight webs and half webs can be adapted to different market requirements. In general, straight-web, half-width webs are more commonly used in the high-end commercial print market, such as yearbook reports, brochures, and catalog samples. While the short-web, half-width web partially meets the same market requirements, its largest market is the proliferation of direct-mail printing, particularly in the personalized printing market. Therefore, short-web, half-web presses are becoming a popular web press in the printing industry.
Currently, Mitsubishi (Mitsubishi) has produced a straight-web, half-width web press with a web size of 23 by 20 inches, which is known as a true web-fed offset web press. The advantage of using a straight-filament web is that an 11-inch double-hemorrhage print can be printed on a 23-inch drum in the direction of the paper web. When the printed sheet is folded, accurate folding position can be ensured between the next printed sheet and the printed sheet, so that a high-precision printed matter can be obtained.
Komori (Komori), another manufacturer of half-width web printing presses, aimed at sheetfed printers. Komori’s target markets are those who are seeking to retain long prints and print sales. $150 to $20 million in sheetfed printers.
Reasons for growth and recession In fact, the most important competitor for half web presses is the sheet-fed press. Half web presses have the advantage of requiring special functions such as variable web printing or on-line post-press processing. At the same time, all on-line post-press processing equipment manufacturing companies use half web as their basic design format, and can use a half-web press to directly print 8-inch-size fine prints.
At present, online post-press processing has a strong momentum of development. Because with the reduction of process conversion time, the production efficiency will be greatly improved. Therefore, on-line post-press processing can save time, money, and reduce the consumption of printing value-added effects. And with the development of the printing industry, companies with flexible printing systems will get better development.
Half-web presses reached the peak of development in the late 1970s and early 1980s, and subsequently they have gradually declined, although they still have a certain market. Originally, some small sheet-fed printers used half-web presses in an attempt to penetrate the web printing market. However, due to problems such as the need to meet the investment/income ratio and the need for a certain amount of printing and livelihood, as well as certain difficulties in the operation of machinery and equipment, many sheet-fed printers turned to full-web printing presses. Those printers who withdrew from the full-web press market thought that web printing still had a market, so they turned to a half-web press. There are also some printers who buy half web presses in order to strengthen the competitiveness of the regional market. Some large printers use this type of equipment to print small prints and covers.
However, due to the small profit margins for half-web printing that can achieve economical printing, this is one of the important reasons why this type of printing press is not widely used at present. For example, the half-width web press was originally quoted at a much lower price than the full-web web press. However, the current half web press capacity is only a full-web web press.
The vitality of the market for half-width web printing is twofold: printers already owning half a web, including those using full-web web, are considering expanding their production capacity; that is, ensuring high-quality prints Printing requirements, but also expect to expand the production capacity of sheet-fed printers.
Printers in the sheetfed printing market are always looking for better and more economical printing methods. If printers really want to move from sheetfed printing to the web printing market, they should first look at our company’s growth forecast for printing turnover. The use of web-fed offset web presses requires sales of approximately $6 million to $8 million per year. The use of full web presses, according to the press system configuration, annual revenue should be at least 1200 to 16 million US dollars. (To be continued)
