An extensive prepress package and major functions such as nesting, tiling and paneling, together with cut line management, are combined with a flexible workflow management system, enabling wide format printers to achieve substantial time and cost efficiencies in their production process. The workflow solution will significantly gain efficiency in the prepress, with the potential to make substantial cost savings in respect of substrate and ink consumption, combined with improved machine utilization are the major advantages offered by the new Wide Format Automation Suite for wide and super-wide format printers.
Over last 20 years, the German software publisher has developed Automation Suite that incorporates a flexible workflow management system, a comprehensive prepress package, innovative technologies such as nesting and tiling & paneling, as well as a direct interface between the software and the print press. The company’s workflows and assembly lines can be created digitally using an easy-to-use drag and drop editor – with changes possible at any time. Now, it’s not just the workflow that runs automatically based on job tickets or metadata; instead, the individual production steps are also automated by introducing major new functionalities to the workflow management system.
