The system – Germany’s first 96-page web press – is nearing completion at the site in Pforzheim.

Components for the Sunday 5000 press began arriving from Goss International facilities in France, the Netherlands and the USA in November.

The press with a web width of 2860 mm includes DigiRail digital inking and Autoplate fully automatic plate changing technology. It will be equipped with a Contiweb FD paster, Ecocool dryer and PCF-3 pinless combination folder.

The new 96-page Goss press will operate alongside two 48-page Goss Sunday 4000 short-grain presses installed at Stark Druck in 2006 and 2008.
