HID 2025: Heidelberg Jetfire 50 with Hunkeler Starbook Sheetfolder
The Jetfire 50 is Heidelberg’s latest sheet-fed inkjet printer, designed for new, future-proof production methods in commercial printing. Delivering exceptional image quality at 1200Å~1200 dpi, it handles sheets up to B3 size and prints at speeds of up to 4560 SRA3 sheets per hour (duplex) on paper weights ranging from 60 to 350 gsm. This makes it an ideal solution for future-proof, high-performance production.
For the first time, at the Heidelberg / Müller Martini booth, the Starbook Sheetfolder is showcased inline with a sheet-fed printer—the Jetfire 50—creating a highly automated, fully integrated book production line. Paired with the Müller Martini Vareo Pro and InfiniTrim, this setup demonstrates the state-of-the-art in sheet-fed book production, transforming a blank sheet into high-quality finished books with unmatched efficiency.
With this system, connectivity is more than just a concept—it’s a reality. Seamlessly interconnected processes maximize cost-effectiveness, giving companies a competitive edge in modern print production.
Sheet-fed book production offers unparalleled flexibility, allowing quick response times, efficient shortrun printing, and even books of one. At Hunkeler Innovationdays, this will be demonstrated with shortrun production of books featuring various formats and page counts, showcasing the ultimate in adaptive and efficient book manufacturing.
