3TControl - Axel Springer Collaboration

Press release from the issuing company

3TControl and the printing facility Spandau of Axel Springer AG agreed on a collaboration regarding the 3TControl’s Print Automation platform. The site in Berlin will become a reference site as well as an ongoing research location. Axel Springer already operates twenty-four, four-high MAN Colorman towers across eight folders in Spandau.

The success comes hot on the heals of another landmark print automation project together with press manufacturer WIFAG at the BT Trykk print facility in Bergen, Norway, which is the first full print automation project worldwide on a WIFAG press.

3TControl's IPA system made its debut in Germany in Sindelfingen where the bundled functionality has come on stream on the KBA Colora press operated by Z-Druck.

3TControl's IPA offers closed loop automation of colour register, plate register, fan out control, and ink density control from just one camera. IPA is complimented by a precision cutoff and sidelay control system also showcased last year at the Erritsø print facility in Denmark.

Sergio Muñoz, Head of Business Development at 3TControl commented, "We are really looking forward to working with Axel Springer on this project. It is clear from the tremendous interest that print automation is an important part of the future of our industry all over the world and that 3TControl's unique technology represents a cost effective process control solution based on tried and tested printing knowhow."
