CPI expands digital color cutting again

CPI expands digital color cutting again

Due to the continued high demand for digital color cutting, CPI invests in a third book edge printer.

< Ulm, October 2023 > To cope with the continuing high demand for digital color cutting, CPI has invested in another book edge printer. The printer enables filigree patterns and motifs to be printed on book edges with a high level of detail. This makes it possible to implement numerous new ideas in terms of design, which have a positive impact on sales.

Chris Malley, Group CEO: "The new press will be installed at a further site and will be fully operational from January. This means that our customers will not only benefit from additional capacity and more flexibility. Rather, we can offer them a significantly higher level of planning and production reliability across all sites."

Manga paperbacks

Manga paperbacks

We often produce manga paperbacks where a dust jacket needs to be folded over. Until now, this always had to be done manually, but now we can also do it mechanically. An extension to the fullflap system has now been made on the SU machine on the K1 bookline, which enables the automatic folding of SU around the TB covers. The machine is running perfectly and we can now produce the mangas for our customers even faster.
