Offset Bigger than Ever at Drupa
Offset presses were popular at Drupa, with large-format and short-run presses grabbing the spotlight.
These themes were very apparent from Heidelberg, which filled two entire halls, networked with its JDF-based Prinect workflow management system. Among Heidelberg’s several press debuts and upgrades, the centerpiece was a six-color, 64˝ Speedmaster XL 162 very-large-format (VLF) press with coater. The 15,000 sheet-per-hour (sph), “Peak Performance Class” press was geared toward the packaging and industrial printing segments.
