Silver Printing Co., Ltd., a leading Japanese producer of high-quality paper-based packaging, has significantly enhanced its production capabilities with the installation of a five-color Komori Lithrone G40 advanced press in January 2025. Equipped with advanced features including UV curing, double delivery, and a double-sided inspection system, the new press allows Silver Printing to efficiently manage small-lot, high-variety orders with tighter deadlines. The company, which holds ISO 9001 certification, serves clients across various industries, including pharmaceuticals, health food, cosmetics, and industrial products. It has now streamlined its operations to meet growing customer demands for speed, quality, and versatility.

The addition of double delivery and inline inspection has improved sorting accuracy and eliminated manual errors, allowing faster post-processing and reducing operator workload. Print quality has been further enhanced through innovations such as heavy roller cleaning, top-and-bottom sheet alignment in the feeder section, and faster color changeover, which is critical in a packaging environment with frequent ink changes. “This machine has transformed our workflow,” said Factory Manager Takeshi Matsui. “We’re now operating more efficiently with less downtime, while delivering even higher quality output to our customers.”

Looking ahead, President Kimio Toita expressed interest in digital press solutions, such as Komori’s Impremia NS40 and J-throne 29, as the company explores hybrid production strategies. He emphasized the value of Komori’s technology and support, noting that the most recent press investment was aided by an energy-saving subsidy. “We’re focused on sustainable growth, enhancing productivity, and delivering trusted quality values that align perfectly with our partnership with Komori,” Toita said.
