Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AG (HEIDELBERG) is adding the Cartonmaster CX 145 in format class 6 to its portfolio for packaging customers. The press can be integrated into both the Prinect workflow and the workflow solutions of third-party suppliers. What's more, customers can access performance data for their press in the HEIDELBERG Customer Portal.

Besides the actual press in the HEIDELBERG design, the package on offer also covers sales, installation, training, and support, including service and consumables. Customers benefit from global service network: Maximum press availability, minimal complexity, and a professional, well-established service from the supplier are key investment criteria, especially for packaging producers in the high-volume folding carton segment. The global HEIDELBERG service organization offers added value for customers, who now have a more comprehensive portfolio in this market segment.

The new press is available to order from HEIDELBERG with immediate effect. Full-range provider for all requirements in folding carton production: HEIDELBERG supplies a full range of products for folding carton printing and can provide the right solution for every need. For example, the company offers packaging customers Speedmaster presses in all kinds of configurations in the 50 cm x 70 cm (19.69 x 27.56 in) and 70 cm x 100 cm (27.56 x 39.37 in) formats, all the way through to the new Peak Performance generation of the Speedmaster XL 106.

Together with its partner MK, HEIDELBERG also provides ideal solutions for postpress applications, including robotics. The Boardmaster flexographic web printing system in the HEIDLEBERG portfolio covers the top end of the productivity range in folding carton production. By launching the new Cartonmaster CX 145, HEIDELBERG is now plugging the gap between its Speedmaster portfolio and the Boardmaster.

With its strong international presence in approximately 170 countries, the creative power and expertise of its roughly 9,500 employees, its own production facilities in Europe, China, and the USA, and one of the larger global sales and service networks, the company is ideally positioned for future growth. The new Cartonmaster adds a VLF sheetfed offset press to the HEIDELBERG portfolio. Customers will benefit from the press being integrated into the company's digital ecosystem and global service operations.
