From 27 to 30 May, Koenig & Bauer showcased its comprehensive expertise in packaging production at the Print4All trade fair in Milan. At two locations, a well-attended exhibition stand in Hall 11 and the Corrugated Experience Hub in Hall 9, trade visitors experienced the company's broad portfolio, from folding carton and label production to commercial and corrugated cardboard applications. The company thus appeared as one of the market leaders in Italy.
Live production and end-to-end expertise
At the stand, Koenig & Bauer highlighted its role as an end-to-end solution provider for packaging production. Trade visitors gained insight into Koenig & Bauer's extended expertise along the entire value chain of folding carton production: with technology, equipment, and services from prepress, printing, and die-cutting to folding carton gluing. This process also includes continuous workflows from job preparation to post-calculation with systems such as LogoTronic, JobOptimiser, Optimus Dash, and PrintFusion, the Koenig & Bauer Ecosystem myKyana, as well as extensive features for fully automatic quality management – from register measurement and colour control to quality regulation and inline sheet inspection. The centerpiece was on an Omega Allpro 55 folder gluer, which produced universally applicable longitudinal seam cartons live at a high speed of 400 m/min.
Corrugated cardboard expertise at the Corrugated Experience Hub
In parallel, Koenig & Bauer bundled its entire range of services for corrugated cardboard production at the Corrugated Experience Hub at Print4All. Experts from Koenig & Bauer Celmacch guided trade fair guests through the Chroma series for printing and die-cutting corrugated cardboard. This technology covers the entire spectrum, from standard applications to the highest levels of automation with the fastest job changes, exceptional print quality, and maximum productivity.
CI flexo and webfed digital printing: versatile solutions for modern packaging printing
The experts from Koenig & Bauer also provided insights into the extensive portfolio of CI flexo machines and their application on films, paper, and board – for example, for the production of shopping bags, gift packaging, or, of course, folding cartons. With high flexibility, environmental friendliness, quality, and efficiency, the technology meets the requirements of modern packaging printing.
Koenig & Bauer as well provided information about the RotaJET, a powerful solution for the high-quality, economical production of folding cartons, especially for customised motifs and variable print runs, in the webfed digital printing sector.
