Komori America’s Impremia IS29 Sheetfed Inkjet PressReceives Printing Industries of America’s 2017 InterTech™ Technology Award

Rolling Meadows, IL - July 24, 2017 -

Komori America Corporation announced that Komori’s Impremia IS29, a 29-inch inkjet, sheetfed UV printing system, received  the Printing Industries of America’s  2017 InterTech™ Technology Award.  The Impremia IS29 is an innovative press  that delivers on Komori’s three core competencies—product reliability, high quality and substrate freedom.  This year  is the fourth time  Komori  has been honored with  an InterTech™ Technology Award. Previous  accolades were  for its proprietary H-UV Curing System, the Komori  Lithrone S40  press  and the Komori Fully Automatic Plate
Changing System (APC).


The Impremia IS29 is an  inkjet printing system  designed to successfully meet customer demands for complex variable print requirements where size is a factor. The system has the capability to economically produce variable short-run, high-quality color printing not feasible on a traditional press,  while making it possible to get to market quickly with reduced set-up costs and color output that rivals offset.  Equipped with UV technology, the IS29  can handle a 23x29” sheet which is ideal for a six up print format.    In addition, it  does not require pre-coated paper, and enables  printing  on a wide range of stocks, including ordinary offset paper.  By taking advantage of  its  UV inkjet characteristics, IS29  is ideal for not only commercial print applications, but also package printing.
“We are  honored  to receive the prestigious  InterTech™ Technology Award  for this  first-of-its-kind
technology,”  said Meishi Tsuya, president and COO  of Komori America.  “The Impremia IS29 is part of Komori’s  line of inkjet output  products, underscoring  Komori’s continued  commitment to offer  the industry  solutions that expand  the  potential  of print  and improve margins with the ability to produce diverse print communications.”
