Customers Attest to Price-Performance Ratio of Heidelberg Large-Format Presses

Since the start of 2010, packaging and surface finishing specialist Karl Knauer KG in Biberach, Germany, has been using the world's first six-color Speedmaster XL 145 with dual coating, Prinect Inpress Control, and fully-integrated material logistics. This machine was part of the largest investment ever made in the company's history, amounting to EUR 10 million. Four meters high and over 40 meters long, this machine is the ultimate in cutting-edge packaging and surface finishing technology. The employees played a key role in the investment planning process. One crucial factor was the machine's ability to print short runs more cost-effectively, too.
