Koenig & Bauer hosts exclusive ‘Post-press Solutions Experience’

Koenig & Bauer recently invited existing and prospective customers from all over the world to an exclusive event under the banner ‘Post-press Solutions Experience’ at Koenig & Bauer in Radebeul.

More than 150 guests from 12 countries were given the opportunity to learn more about the latest solutions for even greater profitability and efficiency at the post-press stages of folding carton production.

The objective of the event was to present innovations in the field of post-press technology and to share comprehensive insights into the future of folding carton production.

It addressed both potential customers and current users who wish to further optimise their production processes and are therefore interested in learning about the latest trends in the industry.

A highly varied agenda allowed the international post-press experts to gather a wealth of information on current and future developments in folding carton production.

In a panel of experts, users reported on their investment decisions and experiences with postpress technology from Koenig & Bauer. From left to right: Thomas Grübner, Elbe-Leasing, Otto Meyer, Thimm Verpackungen, Hagen Sczepanski, Vogtland-Kartonagen and Thomas Göcke, Koenig & Bauer Sheetfed

“At our recent event, we didn’t just talk about our technology; we showcased it live,” Rayne Simpson, sales manager, ANZ – Koenig & Bauer, told Sprinter.

“Customers had the chance to experience our cutting-edge die cutters and folder gluers first-hand. We demonstrated the CutPRO Q106 the SB die-cutter, and the CutPRO X 106 rotary die-cutter, alongside the OMEGA Allpro 110 folder gluer.

“During the demonstrations, we ran real-time production jobs, including make-readies, allowing everyone to see how these machines operate in real-time.

“This hands-on experience gave customers a clear understanding of our capabilities and the quality of our equipment. It was an exciting opportunity to engage with our experts, witness the machines, and see their efficiency in action.”
