HEIDELBERG Boosts Print Shop Efficiency with Hybrid Automation

HEIDELBERG is revolutionizing print shop operations with its Prinect Touch Free software and hybrid production solutions. As a comprehensive partner, HEIDELBERG supports various printing needs—whether digital or offset—by providing a unified workflow that minimizes costs and optimizes flexibility across the production chain.

Hybrid printing, blending digital for short runs and offset for longer ones, allows print shops to produce a wide range of print jobs efficiently. HEIDELBERG’s Prinect Touch Free, driven by AI, automates job processing, selecting the most cost-effective production method while reducing human intervention. This addresses labor shortages and tight deadlines, enhancing profitability by minimizing waste and maximizing workflow automation.

At drupa 2024, HEIDELBERG introduced the Jetfire digital printing system in partnership with Canon, showcasing its commitment to providing versatile and integrated printing solutions. Additionally, the company’s revamped Print Media Center at Wiesloch-Walldorf, branded as the “Home of Print,” will feature live demos and tailored solutions, reinforcing HEIDELBERG’s leadership in advancing print technology.
