The press, which had its debut at Ipex, will spend three days at Brentford, from 7-9 November, forming the main attraction at Heidelberg's open house.
Heidelberg small format marketing manager, Richard Bradley, said: "No one competing in a tight and cost-competitive environment can afford to ignore this technology because it changes the whole cost per sheet position of litho."
Heidelberg developed the Anicolor inking unit, which uses an anilox system, to improve the cost-effectiveness of litho printing. On its launch, Heidelberg stated that the Anicolor unit would virtually eliminate start-up waste and cut makeready times by 40%.
Heidelberg believes its anilox presses can now compete on runs as low as 100.
Also on show will be the A52 and A74 Suprasetters and the ST450 saddlestitcher. and a raft of presses.
