Koenig & Bauer updates Southeast Asia on opportunities

The objective of the event, held in Kuala Lumpur last month, was to inform the market on the latest trends and technical options that could help printers in the region become more competitive and profitable. In addition, the audience was brought up-to-date on current sheet-fed, digital and flexo printing technologies.

Beyond the core printing process, the participants were also provided with information on the group’s portfolio of flatbed and rotary die-cutters, as well as the latest range of folder-gluers.

Sascha Fischer, head of product management at Koenig & Bauer Sheetfed, spoke about the technical highlights, automation features and tailored configurations of Rapida sheet-fed offset presses. Perfecta product manager Clemens Berndt introduced his company’s latest cutting technologies and explained how the current range of high-speed cutters can contribute to automation and optimization of the process chain. For general manager Billy Yap, the seminar was an ideal occasion to introduce the local service team of Koenig & Bauer (SEA) to the audience. At the same time, he provided information on the individually configured service packages, proactive and predictive services, remote support, performance reports and consulting services offered by Koenig & Bauer.
