Around the world, a growing number of customers are finding out just how easy it is to make the move to the digital printing portfolio based around the Linoprint CV/CP systems from Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AG. Since Heidelberg and Ricoh started working together in 2011, more than 600 users have acquired a Linoprint digital printing system for the cost-effective and flexible production of short runs including variable data print.
On request, Heidelberg now supplies all Linoprint CV/CP systems with the Prinect Digital Frontend, which delivers greater automation and improved reliability. The Prinect Digital Frontend newly developed by Heidelberg supports the seamless integration of the Linoprint CV/CP digital printing systems into the overall print shop workflow.
During Print China and Gulf Print & Pack in Dubai, where Heidelberg was exhibiting, the company’s digital printing portfolio attracted interest from visitors. At both events, Heidelberg exhibited the new Linoprint CV digital printing system to local companies for the first time. These two markets are delivering stronger growth for print products than any other region in the world. This trend is also due in part to the growing demand for shorter and variable runs from the commercial sector.
Stephan Plenz, member of the Management Board at Heidelberg, and Tadashi Furushima, , corporate VP Production Printing Business Division at Ricoh, recently confirmed that both companies would carry forward their strategic partnership on a long-term basis.
“We will continue to expand our portfolio of integrated digital printing systems and the associated services and consumables as quickly as possible, so that our customers and we ourselves can benefit from this growth segment. Partnerships with the best in the industry are the key to success, and that is why we are planning to continue our collaboration with Ricoh over the long term,” said Plenz.
“Heidelberg and Ricoh are a natural fit as innovation leaders in our respective technology fields. Our partnership continues to ensure that Heidelberg’s customers have direct access to the best of both offset and digital solutions available on the market today,” added Furushima.
