Müller Martini will present three outstanding solutions for smart factories. These solutions combine the strengths of different partners, opening up new, undreamt-of possibilities that meet the requirements of the modern printing industry. An impressive range of applications will demonstrate the flexibility and efficiency of a smart factory.
At the Hunkeler Innovationdays 2025, which will take place in Lucerne from February 24-27, 2025, Müller Martini and Hunkeler will present exciting solutions that harness the full potential of digital printing. In this inspiring environment, trade visitors will learn about innovative approaches that will revolutionise their production processes.
Müller Martini will combine the strengths of different partners, presenting three unique solutions at its booth: first, from the white roller, second, from the white signature to the finished softcover book, and third, the highly automated saddle stitching production.
One highlight at the Müller Martini booth will be an inline solution for producing softcover books from white signatures in different formats and thicknesses. In cooperation with Heidelberg, the Jetfire 50 printing press will be presented, working in combination with the Starbook Sheetfolder from Hunkeler and the Vareo PRO perfect binder as well as the InfiniTrim trimming robot. This solution is characterised by minimal operating effort, efficient production processes and a wide variety of possible applications.
In addition, another inline application will be presented, highlighting the process from the white roll to the finished softcover book. The product travels from the unprinted roll through the HP Advantage 2200 digital web press and the Starbook Plowfolder from Hunkeler, and is then finished on the Vareo PRO perfect binder and the InfiniTrim trimming robot. Designed for minimal staffing, this powerful production line enables efficient production of softcover books right from the white roller.
The highly automated Prinova Digital saddle stitcher will also be presented as part of the Hunkeler Innovationdays. This hybrid solution is ideal for the efficient, low-cost production of magazines, brochures and catalogues in small print runs. The Prinova Digital enables ultra-short setup times, offering an intuitive operating concept for maximum user-friendliness.
Müller Martini will present its Connex workflow system as a key technology for the efficient, cost-effective production of customised and variable print products. The system controls all the solutions shown and ensures seamless integration of all production steps, from imposition of the print data to sorting of the finished products. Müller Martini will showcase the wide range of possibilities of the workflow system as well as the entire range of MMServices.
