To date, however, flexographic and gravure printing presses have tended to contain a range of systems from different providers for web monitoring, inspection, printing impression, register setting and more. Inevitably, this has led to added complexity and interface problems. At drupa 2016, W&H brought an integrated assistance system to market for the first time. The VISION package combines these systems with a single operator interface. "The deep integration of the modules into the press means less data entry when starting a job, faster machine changeovers, and reliable, faultless print production – essentially, greater quality and efficiency," declared Ulrich Harte, Head of Marketing Printing and Finishing. The numbers speak for themselves: The specialist in machines for manufacturing flexible packaging is giving the market what it wants. "The VISION package has already become a standard in W&H machines; we've sold more than 100 systems since drupa," declared Harte. The VISION product range, developed under the slogan PACKAGING 4.0 – Integrated, Intuitive, Intelligent, significantly boosts the efficiency of W&H WINDMÖLLER & HÖLSCHER KG Münsterstr. 50 | 49525 Lengerich Postfach 1660 | 49516 Lengerich Telefon: +49 5481 14-0 | Fax: +49 5481 14-2649 [email protected] | www.wuh-group.com Sitz der Gesellschaft: Lengerich | Deutschland Registergericht: Amtsgericht Steinfurt, HRA 4550 Umsatzsteuer-Ident-Nr.: DE 125494361 Umsatzsteuer-Nr.: 327/599
