For Koenig & Bauer, a special focus is to be placed on the packaging market and digital solutions at drupa in Hall 16/A31.
The three pillars of the Exceeding Print strategy – sustainability, digitalisation and modularity – define a common theme for all presentations and will offer visitors interesting insights into the diverse possibilities for raising print production to new levels of efficiency.
Dr Andreas Pleßke, CEO, Koenig & Bauer, has spoken to numerous industry experts over the past months, not least within the framework of drupa’s Print Promotion Industry Summit. “As chairman of the drupa committee, I am looking forward to a spectacular trade fair with many highlights. As CEO of Koenig & Bauer, I look forward to presenting our latest innovations on the topics of digitalisation and sustainability to visitors.”
“From pre-press to post-press, Koenig & Bauer products represent precision, performance and high-end solutions from a single supplier. Visitors to our stand will experience digital and analogue production lines that achieve breathtaking results with our workflow and digitalisation solutions,” says Ralf Sammeck, CDO, Koenig & Bauer and CEO, Koenig & Bauer Sheetfed.
The company is bringing a display of technical innovations to Düsseldorf – demonstrating an end-to-end packaging workflow from pre-press, via printing and die-cutting to gluing of the folding cartons. All presses and machines presented at drupa – a Rapida 106 X, a VariJET 106, a CutPRO X 106 rotary die-cutter, a CutPRO Q 106 SB flat-bed die-cutter and an Omega Alius 90 folder-gluer – incorporate the latest features. These features boost performance by at least 20% compared to the predecessor generations and once again set new benchmarks for folding carton production.
