Highcon continued its collaboration with Xeikon when presenting the results of a completely digital workflow, from prepress through printing to digital finishing, on the Highcon Euclid at the Xeikon Café in May.
Highcon was digitally cutting and creasing folding carton packages printed on the Xeikon 3500 digital press. Visitors to the show were able to see the printing of folding carton boxes on the Xeikon booth. These printed samples were finished on the Highcon booth by the Highcon Euclid.
According to Eitan Varon, Executive VP, Highcon, ‘Xeikon and Highcon solutions focus on the importance of digital technology throughout the production process. We firmly believe that this collaboration benefited printers who want to enter the packaging market and enable converters to cope with shorter runs. We welcomed visitors to the show to see the fruits of our collaboration with Xeikon.’
Filip Weymans, Director of Marketing and Business Development, Labels and Packaging at Xeikon said, ‘Our Folding Carton Suite includes different components that are built around a Xeikon 3000 Series press to form turn-key solutions for producing short run folding carton jobs. Highcon is an important partner for our Folding Carton Suite as their equipment is unique in its ability to create digital creases. Visitors at Graph Expo were impressed to see a full-fledged digital production solution for folding carton packages.’
