Recently, following installations at Hunan Tianwen, Zhejiang Xinhua, and Guizhou Xinhua, Shanghai Zhonghua Printing Co., Ltd. has officially launched the Newbridge fully automatic high-speed perfect binding line, the fourth generation of JMD, after intensive commissioning. The actual production speed has reached 12,000 copies per hour for the magazine “Reader.”
As a national designated enterprise for book and periodical printing, Shanghai Zhonghua Printing Co., Ltd. previously purchased two JMD Cambridge-12000 perfect binding lines in 2017 and 2020. After comprehensive evaluation, the new generation Newbridge integrates automation and digital technology. In the context of digital printing, the company has once again chosen JMD’s latest and most advanced Newbridge to establish a “Smart Binding Operation Demonstration Center.”
