Komori Corporation (Sumida-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director, President and CEO: Satoshi Mochida) announces the addition of the System 38D (LR-438/1250II), a 625mm cut-off thirty-two page web offset press, to its lineup.

System 38D (LR-438/1250II): An Offset Web Press Combining Energy-saving Performance and High Productivity

In response to growing demand for environmentally conscious business strategies, Komori has developed a next-generation web offset press, the System 38D (LR-438/1250II), which delivers not only high productivity and high quality but also outstanding energy-saving performance.

This 32-page press inherits the superior print quality and control systems of the highly acclaimed System series of offset web presses while delivering enhanced energy-saving performance.
Komori’s proprietary technologies reduce makeready times while achieving a printing speed of 40,000 iph. Delivering high quality, short makeready, and the flexibility to handle everything from short to long runs, this highly efficient web offset press opens new market opportunities.
In addition, by connecting prepress, press, and postpress processes through KP-Connect Pro, the system optimizes the entire production workflow and contributes to the realization of smart factories.

The System 38D reduces time, labor, and printing materials while lowering environmental impact and also supports stable operation with an industry-leading support network.

Technologies that Reduce Environmental Impact

Komori has long pursued the development of printing presses that are friendly to both people and the environment. In recent years, reducing energy consumption has become one of the industry’s most important challenges.

The new System 38D is equipped with the next-generation KHS-AI integrated control system, AI-link and various automation systems, significantly reducing paper waste, ink consumption, and solvent usage. Komori’s proprietary Komorimatic dampening system forms a uniform and thin water film using only the minimum amount of water, making it well suited for alcohol-free printing. In addition, the adoption of a newly developed motor contributes to lower power consumption.
Combining reduced energy costs with high productivity, the System 38D is a machine designed to be friendly to both people and the environment.

Features

• Designed around the concepts of high quality, short makeready times, and the flexibility to handle everything from short to long runs, it delivers high overall efficiency in offset web press production.
• Equipped with a highly efficient new sectional motor and an infeed regenerative power supply system, significantly improving energy-saving performance.
• A wide range of distinctive, value-added systems can be installed, including the Full-APC (Fully Automatic Plate Changer), KHS-AI, and AI-link.

Launch Date: June 1, 2026
