Another leading packaging company has turned to Koenig & Bauer to invest in one of the world’s most productive single-pass digital presses for packaging printing. The RotaJET will be delivered during the coming year and is scheduled to commence production in 2023.
With this press, Koenig & Bauer has achieved its breakthrough into the packaging segment. This follows in the wake of the company’s sales successes in the decor segment, where several RotaJET installations have been commissioned successfully. In total, more than 20 industrial single-pass digital presses from Koenig & Bauer, including HP PageWide T1190 and T1100 models, with web widths from 1.38 m to 2.8 m are currently already in use, or have been sold and are awaiting installation.
“This means we have now arrived in almost all important market segments for digital print. Our RotaJET is one of a kind, and one of the most productive digital presses on the market anywhere in the world. A glance across supermarket shelves suffices to grasp the sheer range of different types of packaging. Sustainability, time-to-market and increasingly small runs, paired with a growing numbers of variants, are the customer demands that we are addressing with the RotaJET,” says Christoph Müller, member of the executive board of Koenig & Bauer AG.
