'Profitability,Customer-first policies and Digital networks'. how to execute these three 'musts' is the strategic issue facing the printing industry. Recognizing this, komori has developed the world's most advanced high-technology machine to address this issue and lead the industry forward. Now the pinnacle model in the Lithrone series, the world-class strategic machine is the Lithrone S40. The crown of the Lithrone series, the Lithrone S40 was developed expressly for today profit-focussed, customer-driven, network-oriented printing industry. The sleek form of the Lithrone S40 embodies the world's ultimate strategic machine. The Komori view of the printing industry's future is not limited to just pursuing the essentials of productivity, operating ease, and advanced technologies. komori is intent on pushing the envelope of printing by laying open the enormous potentials that lie ahead. The Lithrone S40 expresses Komori's utter confidence in the promise of printing's future.

The Lithrone S40 is the press that addresses many needs. Printers who want to print on both thin and thick stock, do many colored and two sided printing, or raise their rate of in-house work now have the ultimate solution. The Lithrone S40P is a reversible perfector with the flexibility and versatility to deliver critical productivity, short turnaround, and high value added performance.

1. Komori's unique 'double circumference, three-cylinder perfecting configration' developed for the sheet reversal mechanism enables two-sided printing at 15,000sph thanks to the smooth,effortless sheet transfer and air control.
2. A special ceramic jacket is used on the impression cylinders in units following the sheet reversal mechanism. This dramaticaly reduces marking and 'white-thru' caused by ink laid down before sheet reversal being set off by the impression cylinders of subsequent units.
3. Sheets are transferred reliably to the gripper pads by the delivery cylinder and are received on the transfer belt for discharge, ensuring a consistent sheet flow.

The Lithrone S40P employs the classic double width cylinder design, ensuring fewer sheet transfers compared to a press relying on a single-width cylinder layout and far lower stress on the sheets. The 'double circumference, three-cylinder perfecting configuration' achieves stable sheet transfer, sharply reduced scratch and scuff marks, and high sheet-thickness characteristics.
