Durst will use the Fespa Madrid trade show to show off its P5 350 hybrid printing system with extended features including an extensive software solution and textile applications using pigment inks for a variety of applications for roll media and boards.
Durst says the printing system is supplied with workflow software for print preparation and analytics software for processing real production parameters and enables the immediate start of production for customers. The installation of the press is also accompanied with extensive software training and services.
Since the official launch of the new P5 production platform with the P5 350 and P5 210 printing systems at Fespa 2019 in Munich, more than 50 installations have been implemented worldwide, which documents the attractiveness of the overall package, Durst says.
Durst Group CEO and co-owner Christoph Gamper says the company is very much looking forward to attending Fespa in Madrid and showing off the merits of the P5 production platform.
“We are looking forward to Fespa in Madrid and have the state-of-the-art P5 production platform with us,” Gamper said.
“The high demand for our P5 printing systems is unbroken, the workflow and analytics software is continuously being developed, but we also see the increased need for information and training among customers, which we also address with expanded services. It is exciting for us to see the level of integration in which our solutions are used.
“While some are satisfied with the pure RIP function and the print quality, we implement complex web-to-print production infrastructures with others. For us, the focus is always on the Durst printing system, which can be integrated into the production processes with the respective Durst software and can be modularly scaled depending on the scope.”
The company also says Durst Professional Services (DPS) with modular software modules for pre-press or the networking of several printing systems present what further business opportunities and optimisation potential the pixel-to-output strategy offers.
For the web-based product presentation and customer communication, DPS offers with Smart Shop a web shop solution that can be fully integrated from the online catalogue or configurator to the printing system.
LiftERP, an enterprise resource planning software especially for print service providers, will also be presented. Durst says this software tool has already been implemented with over 20 customers in the USA and will be localised for the European market this year. The Durst booth will be flanked by textile application presentations, with a focus on pigment inks, which is increasingly becoming a universal solution in industrial textile printing.
At Fespa in Madrid you can find Durst at stand A20 Hall 7.
