Bobst announces enhancements for Drupa

Finishing equipment manufacturer Bobst has announced a series of enhancements to its existing machines, all of which will be debuted at Drupa this week.

According to the company, the changes have been designed to bring customers "closer to a world of zero-faults, low waste and high productivity".

Its sheetfed folders will feature makeready times reduced by over 10%, as well as improvements to reduce production costs and cut-setting times.

Its web-fed side will display printing machines and laminating equipment, with improved operator control.

Additional launches will include quality control devices that check 100% of customers’ production, whether it is the print on a carton or the density of a metalised film.

The company will also present the first results of its new "group strategy", launched two years ago.
