Durst Tech Days 2018 Becomes the Center of New Solutions

Durst, an inkjet pioneer and manufacturer of advanced digital printing and production technologies, unveiled the latest technology developments in large format print, service and software at the successful Durst Tech Days (May 18-19).

Over two days at the Durst headquarters in Brixen, South Tyrol, Italy, and its other manufacturing site in Lienz, East Tyrol, Austria, guests were told that sales of its new award-winning technology, the P5 platform, are building so fast that delivery times are now up to 10 weeks. Hot on the heels of winning the European Digital Press Association (EDP) Award for P5, which was presented to Durst CEO Christoph Gamper during FESPA, Durst reported first results from the successful P5 field-test at Panorama in Spain. Panorama printed around 24,000 sqm in the first month alone and everything is progressing well.

Christoph Gamper, Durst CEO, said; “The Durst Tech Days were created to give our customers an exclusive preview to our latest technologies and thinking. Designed to address every day production needs and meet ever-changing market demands, the innovations promote efficient, cost effective and optimum operation.”

Barbara Schulz, Executive Vice President Global Sales, added; “We need to put the new developments in context for them to be effective. Customers want to understand how they will work in their own production environment to maximize their investment. We creared Durst Tech Days to allow them successfully to do just that.”

For the Durst Tech Days at Brixen the focus was on roll-to-roll printing systems, software and preventive maintenance concepts; at Lienz there were demonstrations of Durst P5 and Durst Water Technology for flatbed printing on the agenda. Tailored presentations took place over the two days.

The Rho roll-to-roll wide-format portfolio of 3 and 5 meter printing systems; with UV LED curing technology and with the newly issued UV LED ink.  The new model will be the Durst Rho 512R LED. Industrial soft signage took a close look at the successful Rhotex 325 fabrics and dye-sub printer with higher productivity and greater paper selection. Visitors monitored how performance has increased by 40% in standard production hence heard that there have been around 50 installations since the launch in October 2016.

Latest Durst Analytics software offers preventive service and maintenance via remote monitoring of the most important machine parameters. Important updates in Durst Water Technology; – first announced two years ago – with the award-winning Durst WT 250 now achieving industrial production in flatbed printing. A roadmap and strategy for Durst’s Professional Services Division and workflow updates and new ink announcements. Confirmation that Durst will be unveiling new family members of the P5 and other developments at the SGIA show.

First plans unveiled in another step forward. Print service providers can benefit from Durst’s world-class technology without making a large initial capital outlay. The idea involves Durst investing in print businesses a rent-first concept for up to four years. Scheme qualifiers will have the chance to get an offer: a top-maintained pre-owned machine through a “full service contract”.
