The first Rapida 105 PRO in Poland was commissioned at the end of last year. The five-colour press with coater and double-length extended delivery went into service at Kart Trefl in Kraków, a Polish playing card specialist whose links with Koenig & Bauer stretch back to the 1980s.
The Rapida 105 PRO is engineered for a maximum production speed of 17,000sph and prints not only the full portfolio of playing cards, but also other game elements and the corresponding packaging. It incorporates accessories for the handling of substrates up to 1.2mm (48pt), FAPC fully automatic plate changers, CleanTronic washing systems and energy-saving VariDryBlue dryers, as well as ErgoTronic ColorDrive (densitometric and Lab measurements), QualiTronic PSO Match (inline colour control to PSO specifications), ErgoTronic Quality Pass (quality reports) and the production management system LogoTronic Professional.
