PRINT 05 Sheetfed/Web Offset presses -- Perfecting Personified

During Heidelberg's press conference, Heidelberg Chairman Bernhard Schreier also revealed the company's intention to eventually offer a large-format press in the A0 format, capable of outputting poster-size sheets of one square meter—perhaps with a Drupa 2008 introduction.

Benefitting from increased industry demand for large-format packaging and commercial printing capabilities, KBA North America officials used PRINT 05 to proclaim a 42 percent increase in sales during the past year and to report that the KBA group has risen to second place in global sheetfed press sales. This has been achieved largely through its best-selling position in the large-format press market.
