KBA at drupa: Creative meeting point for offset and digital printers

Unveils prototype of RotaJET digital web press developed with RR Donnelley.


KBA teamed up with ClimatePartner to demonstrate new options for climate-neutral printing and the potential of climate-neutral press manufacture – of which all the Rapida presses on the stand were examples. In the dedicated Technology Lounge KBA showcased the latest advances in UV LED and HR (high-resolution) UV curing systems, energy management and heat recovery in printing plants. As at previous trade fairs the CTP pre-press equipment – a Magnus 800 MCU platesetter – was provided by Kodak. The JDF/JMF workflow on the stand ran via LogoTronic Professional. KBA ProductivityPlus demonstrated process automation with MIS integration.
