Itasca, Ill. – Xeikon today announced plans to exhibit at Hunkeler Innovationdays in 2022. This will be the fourteenth edition of this prestigious and popular event. Focused on high-performance digital printing and finishing, this international print industry event is scheduled to be held in Switzerland at the Lucerne Exhibition Centre from February 21-24. 2022, and it will be the ninth consecutive Innovationdays in which Xeikon has participated.

“During these past months, Xeikon has completed an important milestone by introducing its SIRIUS technology, the cornerstone of Xeikon’s new roll-fed duplex presses,” said Dimitri Van Gaever, Market Segment Director for Graphic Arts. “With the successful commercialization of its next generation dry toner technology stack, Xeikon is demonstrating its commitment to the graphic arts market. The company’s journey of full color, digital print production started more than 30 years ago and Xeikon continues to innovate and bring to market advanced, added value technologies and systems.”

The Xeikon SX30000 is the most productive full color duplex press of the SIRIUS family, delivering as many as 2,545 B2 sheets per hour (404ppm A4). Because of its full rotary concept without fixed sheets or frame size, it is more versatile than sheet-fed options. The Xeikon SX20000 is the entry level press in the new line-up which also offers leading EP performance but at a lower price point, while still benefiting from all the technological developments of the flagship press.

“The Graphic Arts market has gone through a difficult time,” said Van Gaever. “However, we are now seeing a ‘bounce back’ and growing volumes. We are noticing that printers in these sectors are becoming more aware and open to increasing and optimizing their manufacturing processes. This is where digital printing and Xeikon’s SIRIUS technology can be their dependable cornerstone to facilitate their strategies. We know that seeing is believing, and with the return of Hunkeler Innovationdays it will be a perfect opportunity for visitors to dive into our new production lines and understand the value they can offer to the challenges they face.”

We are excited that, after an abnormal period brought about by the global pandemic, we will be able to physically bring the industry together in February 2022. Print is tangible and this is a unique meeting place where the digital world becomes physical and visitors gain an insight into the versatile scenarios with a high practical relevance. Industry owners, managing directors, management and experts in high performance digital printing will sit around a physical table, evaluate printed output and assess the latest developments in digital printing and finishing.
