Introduction
Quality and Cost Performance Resonate
29" OFFSET PRINTING PRESS High quality in a compact design — the perfect
answer for today’s opportunities
The Enthrone embodies the high print quality and leading-edge technologies that have
become synonymous with Komori. And with its stepless operator-side design and small
footprint, the Enthrone fits easily in any installation space.
The highly specified Enthrone is configured with double-size impression and transfer
cylinders to ensure consistent performance on short runs of a diverse work mix.
Accommodating sheet thicknesses of 0.04 mm to 0.6 mm, the press dramatically shortens
the time required for changeover between light and heavy stocks because no transfer
cylinder gripper pad adjustment is necessary. The Enthrone, in short, enables working
efficiencies that result in higher margins and business growth.

Superior Dot Reproduction and Inking Performance 29-inch Two-color Sheetfed Offset Printing Press
for High Quality Print
Komori never relents in its pursuit of quality. Print quality is characterized by excellent reproduction, superior
inking performance and vivid color brilliance. In the printing unit, which is the core element in attaining
this objective, the ideal configuration of inking and dampening rollers as determined by computer analysis
maintains the optimum balance of ink and water and ensures high print quality.
In addition, the use of the double-size cylinder configuration, the new gripper shaft configuration, and
performance-stabilized tapered roller bearings on the plate, impression and transfer cylinders ensures
high quality image reproduction. This unrelenting insistence on quality with items such as the Komorimatic ENTHRONE 29 (E-429)
