Following contracts from India and Turkey early this year for a total of
twelve newspaper presses, Würzburg-based German press manufacturer Koenig &
Bauer AG (KBA) recently received another major order, this time from the
New York Daily News, which has reaffirmed its commitment to print with a
contract for a fifteen-tower, triple-wide version of KBA’s ultra-compact
Commander CT. Scheduled to go live in autumn 2009, the triple-wide
Commander CT press line for the Daily News will have three sections, each
with five Pastomat reelstands, five towers and one KF 7 jaw folder. Founded
in 1919 as the first US daily printed in tabloid form, the Daily News is
the largest and most widely read newspaper in the New York metropolitan
market and the fifth largest newspaper in the country. Along with its newly
redesigned web site – NYDailyNews.com – the Daily News reaches 4.6 million
readers per week.
