UV WEB OFFSET PRESSES -- Finding the Cure

An additional benefit of the UV web press that many printers may not consider is the lack of space that a press takes up, points out John Sillies, executive vice president of GSS. UV allows for reduced floor-space requirements resulting from the compact size of UV equipment versus the large post-dryers and chill stands. Muller Martini's Fetherman agrees, noting that big heatset presses take up a lot of costly real estate on a printer's pressroom floor.
