Following a successful showing at drupa and launch of the Jetfire 50, Heidelberg hosted a Digital Customer Day on Wednesday 25 September, at their customer experience centre at Stockley Park, Uxbridge.
Demonstrating the new Digital Print Ecosystem, visitors were shown state-of-the-art digital printing technology, smart hybrid workflows and intuitive operations. A further presentation of the new Jetfire 50 was also made, alongside the fully integrated Versafire digital presses.
Phil Buttress, head of sales for Heidelberg UK commented, ‘On the back of a very successful drupa, Heidelberg invited customers to learn more about the company’s hybrid digital ecosystem. Demonstrations of the Prinect Digital Workflow complemented the latest generation of Versafires, with an insight into the Jetfire 50. Customers were able to discuss their requirements with our team of technical specialists, enabling them to find the most efficient solution to their production requirements.’
Head of software solutions, Paul Chamberlain, added, ‘The Prinect Digital Front End has been specifically developed for the Versafire LV and Versafire LP digital printing systems. It is optimised to meet the printing industry’s demanding requirements and provides uncompromising support throughout the printing process. It can be fully integrated into the Prinect Production Manager, along with the Heidelberg colour management system, to provide all the benefits of a single centralised workflow for both litho and digital. The Prinect Digital Print Manager and Prinect Digital Front End help automate and standardise the manufacturing process for digital print products – delivering excellent efficiency, greater transparency, and a noticeably faster job flow.’
