YM Group adds additional Sunday 5000

Print Solutions

The YM Group has installed a Goss Sunday 5000 64 page short grain web offset press. The press is installed at the group’s Chantry site which mainly produces magazines, newspaper supplements, catalogues and brochures for the publication and retail markets.

The press has been running since early this year and utilises the proven advantages of Goss’ gapless blanket technology to deliver high output and superior quality for a range of run lengths and formats.

‘The Sunday 5000 adds 64 page short grain capability to our existing facilities for printing high quality commercial and periodical products, and has increased the capacity at YM Chantry by around 40%,’ commented Peter Greaves, managing director, YM Chantry. ‘Short grain is more cost effective for printing as it delivers higher output, especially for sub A4 formats where paper savings are made against the standard long grain formats; this is a key benefit to many of our customers. The Sunday 5000 produces high print quality which is of utmost importance to our customers. We are very satisfied with Goss’s support on this project. The Goss and YM project teams worked together to deliver a successful installation.’
