swissQprint Unveils Flexible Automation Solution at drupa 2024

At drupa 2024, swissQprint introduced a groundbreaking automation module aimed at enhancing productivity in flatbed printing by automating the unloading process. This new feature is designed to alleviate the workload on operators, enabling them to focus on more critical tasks.

“More and more customers are looking to automate their printing processes while preserving flexibility,” stated Carmen Eicher, Chief of Sales and Marketing Officer at swissQprint. In response, swissQprint has developed an innovative unloading module that removes processed media up to 3.2×2 meters from the printer's table, ensuring efficient handling of large print runs. Notably, the loading process remains manual.

The development of this automation solution was guided by initial customer feedback. “drupa is the perfect opportunity to showcase this conceptual study and gather extensive feedback for the final development phase,” Eicher added. The fully refined product is expected to be available in 2025, tailored to market demands.
