Komori to Offer 12 Live Daily Press Demonstrations

"Our Komori 'kando' philosophy drives our exhibit at Graph Expo 08," says Stephan Carter, President and COO of Komori America Corp. "With the current economic turmoil and the highly competitive nature of the printing market, we feel it is our responsibility to provide as much printing press technology as possible in our booth. Time is money, and printers attending Graph Expo want to see as much as possible in one location, and also have the opportunity to compare features and benefits. We believe our variety of presses and our demonstrations will allow visitors to our booth the opportunity to get a good idea of how Komori can help them succeed."In booth #619 in McCormick Place South, Komori will demonstrate the soon to be released LSX40; stress the high performance and fast job cycle time of the LSX29 and highlight the versatility of the small footprint Spica 29P.
