A new Koenig & Bauer Rapida 76 is scheduled to go into production at August Faller in Łódź, Poland, in the spring of next year. This high-end half-format press with seven printing units and twin coaters is expected to boost annual carton packaging production by around 20% to over one billion units, while at the same time raising efficiency and print quality and accelerating customer service.
The press will be the first in a double-coater configuration in the Polish market and it will be the first sheetfed offset press from Koenig & Bauer to be installed at the facility.
“We worked closely with Koenig & Bauer to determine an ideal feature list and these decisions were based on a series of expectations to be fulfilled by the new press,” explains Krzysztof Krupa, Director, August Faller Łódź.
