Goss Introduces Three-around Option for Newspaper Printing

BOLINGBROOK, IL—December 16, 2008—Goss International has introduced a solution that overcomes barriers deterring many newspapers from converting to a more attractive and cost-effective compact format.

The new Goss Triliner technology converts two-pages-around newspaper presses to print three pages around, allowing publishers to save paper and increase productivity and color capacity while still maintaining broadsheet sectioning and the ability to accommodate standard-size advertising inserts. Plate cylinders are modified to accommodate a single plate containing three shorter newspaper pages imaged around the circumference. A Goss SuperBerliner folder allows off-center folds, and adjustments can be made to postpress inserting systems to accept the smaller, asymmetrically folded papers.
