Visitors to the Heidelberg’s Info Days “Profitable and Efficient Production of Short Runs” at the OEM’s Wiesloch-Walldorf site in Germany saw two world premieres! Held at the beginning of this month, the event showcased an eight-colour Speedmaster XL 75 Anicolor perfector and a five-colour Speedmaster XL 75 Anicolor with coating unit and UV technology. In doing so, the press manufacturer demonstrated two further configurations of its Anicolor technology for cost-effective production of short runs. The Speedmaster SX 52 Anicolor has been available as a perfecting press since 2008 and as a UV press since 2010.
The Speedmaster XL 75 Anicolor celebrated its premiere at drupa 2012, and since then, has proved its versatility and popularity, particularly with packaging printers. In small and medium formats, the zoneless Anicolor technology features rapid inking-up that produces saleable sheets from the 20th print onward. “Users have consistently said that it reduces waste by up to 90% and supports very short make-ready times,” Heidelberg added.
