PBM Graphics — True to Their Heritage

The organization’s true curiosity is its 10-color Komori Super Perfector with double coater, the only model of its kind issued by the manufacturer. PBM has acted as a testing site, notes Wendell Robinson, sheetfed press manager.

“The requirement for one of our larger customers is to perfect with an exact back-to-front fit, from one side of the sheet to the other,” Robinson remarks. “We were looking for a machine that would perfect while guaranteeing that both sides of the sheet were dot-on-dot registration 100 percent of the time. Since the Super Perfector does not flip the sheet in the production process, the sheet keeps a constant gripper all the way through the press. It’s also a benefit to be able to coat both sides at the same time and have the same look on the coatings.”
