Tensor Group selected by Central Web to supply four web press towers

Press release from the issuing company

Central Web, one of western Canada's leading independent providers of heatset and coldset web printing, will be installing four Tensor T-1400 single width towers this quarter in Calgary, Alberta.

The new towers will be combined with existing folder equipment, with final pressline configuration to be determined. The T-1400 units are rated at 35,000 iph, with a 35" web width and 22.75" cutoff. The towers will be shaft-driven and equipped with motorized sidelay and register adjustments and stainless steel clad cylinders. Tensor's unique "bearing-in-a-bearing" eccentric design on the blanket cylinder reduces cylinder bounce and side frame wear, providing long equipment service life and improved print quality.

The towers may be used within a coldset or heatset configuration.

Since 1967, Central Web has perfected the art of high speed production of high-impact glossy magazines, newspapers, directories, promotional flyers and catalogues. Central Web's facilities are located in Edmonton and Calgary.
