This Komori Spica 429 is a used 4-color press — sometimes referred to as a four-color offset press or sheet-fed press — a type of commercial printing machine used to apply multiple colors of ink to paper or board stock in a single pass, enabling full-color printed production. Komori is a well-established Japanese manufacturer of sheet-fed and web offset printing presses, widely recognised across the commercial, packaging, and publication printing industries.
Built in 2008 and currently located in Ukraine, this machine operates in the B2 format class, accepting a maximum sheet size of 530 × 740 mm and a minimum of 200 × 280 mm. It handles substrates ranging from 0.035 mm to 0.300 mm in thickness, making it suitable for everything from lightweight paper to light board stock. Rated at a maximum running speed of 13,000 sheets per hour, the press represents a productive mid-volume production platform. The machine's footprint is 6,192 × 2,985 × 1,966 mm and it weighs 12,750 kg, figures that are relevant for installation planning and transport logistics.
The press is equipped with a cascade self-loading system with lateral air inflation, a feeder table with wheels and vacuum tapes, and an ultrasonic double-sheet sensor to prevent feeding errors. Dampening is handled by a Komorimatic system, with circulation of the dampening solution managed by a Technotrans alpha.d unit. Ink supply and registration are controlled through the PQC remote control system, which provides remote management of ink keys as well as axial, circumferential, and diagonal register adjustments. The press also supports CIP3 prepress data integration for more streamlined makeready. Additional automation includes automatic washing of the impression cylinders and blankets, and a Graphopil plate identification or quality control system is noted as part of the configuration.
