Officials and press technicians from RYOBI MHI in Japan and GSNA will be on hand throughout the show. In addition, CRON’s new, flexible and cost-efficient CTP system also will be shown, as will RYOBI MHI’s all-digital CIP4-JDF workflow and other key technologies.

“Package printers and other specialty printers will learn about next-generation offset print technology,” said Erin Layton, Asst. Show Director for CPP. “They’ll see a fully automated offset press in production. This demo coupled with our live presentations will update commercial printers on the huge opportunities in the package, specialty and industrial print marketplace.”

The RYOBI 925 LED-UV press excels on all paper, film, plastic and other synthetics, ranging from ultra thin substrates to 24-point board. The Ryobi-Panasonic LED-UV curing system, built into the press, dries print instantly and delivers important environmental advances.

Also at the show, GSNA will spotlight the advantages of the 6-up RYOBI 750 series Packaging Edition press, including six-minute makereadies, heavy-duty feeders, specialized transfer drums, inking systems, fully automatic plate changing and highly stable delivery piling. This specially equipped press runs up to 31-point board for folding cartons and other applications.

“Our exhibit will enable printers to see and learn how modern 8-up and 6-up offset technology can be a strategic fit for their businesses,” said Don Barbour, owner of Paper Handling Solutions, Marietta, GA, and co-founder of GSNA. “We offer printers the newest proven technology at the lowest total cost of ownership—all backed by North America’s strongest technical support team.”

“We are fortunate that RYOBI MHI and GSNA choose CPP EXPO for the official Chicagoland and Graph Expo debut of the flagship 8-up LED-UV press,” said David Berns, Show Director – CPP EXPO. “Time and again, our attendees insist that seeing, touching and feeling the equipment in live demos is necessary to making educated decisions.”
