Screens Inkjet Technology strengthens the \u2018mediaprint smart factory\u2019<\/em><\/p>\n

Paderborn, Germany \/ Amstelveen, Netherlands \u2013 German print company Mediaprint solutions has purchased the Screen Truepress Jet 520HD+ to drive its growth plans in digital printing. Screen\u2019s digital printer will play a central role in the company\u2019s so-called \u2018smart factory\u2019 set-up to process large numbers of relatively small print runs \u2013 fast and effectively. An innovative print services provider, Mediaprint solutions specializes in catalogues, calendars, tech manuals and books, offering print runs from one copy upward.<\/p>\n

“We see significant transformation in the digital print market, and seek rapid growth in digital printing,\u201d says Tobias Kaase, Managing Director of Mediaprint solutions. \u201cWe\u2019re confident that with Screen as our partner, we\u2019ll achieve our growth targets.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kaase adds: \u201cIn our mediaprint smart factory, we aim to be able to produce around one million print jobs per year in two years from now.\u201d<\/p>\n

The printer produces for publishing houses in German-speaking countries, and for large and medium-sized international industrial companies.<\/p>\n

Quality position<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThe Screen Truepress Jet 520HD+ solves a major challenge for us,\u201d says Kaase. The company was unable to produce economically in offset printing, especially in the book sector, for small print runs of between one and 500 copies. \u201cThis is why we chose inkjet technology,\u201d he explains. Mediaprint solutions already used digital printing machines with toner, but this option was too expensive for books. \u201cInkjet is significantly more cost-efficient. The Screen Truepress Jet 520HD+ press is about eight times more productive than a sheetfed toner press,\u201d says Kaase.<\/p>\n

The 520HD+ can print on standard paper that does not require primer. This is the same paper Mediaprint solutions uses in offset. \u201cIt means we can use paper customers are familiar with and at the same time provide a print result similar to offset printing. This gives the 520HD+ a unique position in terms of quality.\u201d<\/p>\n

Digitalisation as success factor<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mediaprint solutions says its future business success depends on innovation and digitalisation. \u201cWe have a strong culture of innovation, are able to quickly change our processes, and we design new solutions and production technologies for our customers,\u201d says Kaase.<\/p>\n

For one of its customers, for example, the company built a virtual Amazon warehouse where it keeps more than 300,000 products available for delivery, even though these do not yet physically exist. \u201cWhen an end-customer orders one of these products from Amazon, we print and deliver it to the end-customer within 24 hours. This means our business model doesn\u2019t just include printing but also logistics and IT solutions,\u201d says Kaase.<\/p>\n

Mediaprint solutions\u2019 choice of the Screen Truepress Jet 520HD+ highlights the rapid growth of Screen\u2019s inkjet technology in the DACH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland), where the company\u2019s print-on-demand (PoD) business has quadrupled in the past three years. \u201cMediaprint\u2019s Smart Factory is based on our Industry 4.0 strategy,\u201d says Patrick Jud, Area Director Screen Europe for the DACH countries. \u201cAs an innovation driver in the industry, we\u2019re proud to be able to realise this flagship project.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
