Hunkeler Innovationdays 2015 in Lucerne, Switzerland to Showcase Digital Printing/Finishing

LUCERNE, SWITZERLAND—December 5, 2014—Hunkeler Innovationdays is recognized internationally as the number one industry event for digital printing, paper processing, and mailing technologies. Hunkeler will once again present the newest feeding and finishing solutions this February as production print professionals gather for the eleventh Innovationdays to be held at the Messe Lucerne exhibition facility. This year’s show theme, "Reaching the Summit Together," aptly signifies the convergence of important customers, cutting-edge technology, and worldwide experts in the heart of Switzerland, who will influence and set the pace for the next stage of industry innovation.

Growing interest among suppliers and visitors alike has prompted some 80 exhibitors, including leading digital printing system manufacturers and well-known suppliers from the finishing, consumables, and IT sectors, to present their latest products in two new exhibition halls. Over 40 innovative production solutions will be brought to life with real-world applications, and will be rounded off and enhanced by prestigious forums presented by DOXNET (The Document X-perts Network), Interquest, and EBDA (European Business Document Association) where you can participate in an exciting series of seminars and discussions on a range of specialized topics.

Drawing over 5,000 visitors in 2013, Hunkeler Innovationdays is hailed as the most focused trade fair in the industry. Leading edge technologies in digital print and finishing will be represented, as well as practical solutions that integrate with every print production workflow. Attendees will witness it all—from data input to final end-product, inline, nearline, and offline.

2013 was an overwhelming success. Confidence and enthusiasm were high among all attendees and nearly every international market was represented. According to Stefan Hunkeler, president, Hunkeler AG, "Innovationdays provides a unique opportunity every two years for company owners and managers, worldwide, to gather together, discuss, and see firsthand the entire picture when it comes to the state of development in modern digital finishing." He added "At Hunkeler, we’re confident that the 2015 event will prove to be yet another essential information and communication platform."

The upcoming event will feature many exciting premieres to demonstrate greater automation and substrate flexibility, including a new generation of unwinding and rewinding modules with faster roll changes and production speeds up to 1,000 feet/minute. Hunkeler will also showcase a book production line with automated format length changeover, as well as a dynamic finishing solution for perforating, punching, gathering, chip-out, cutting and stacking. Plans are well underway to present the finest automated pre- and post-press paper handling solutions available under one roof for what will surely be another impressive event.
