The modular Prinect workflow is being used to demonstrate scalable systems for all sizes of business and highlight the customer benefits in each step of the process.
The demonstrations cover all areas of a print shop - from pre-press to press and post-press.
Heidelberg added that the demonstrations also show how digital printing and online print shop customers can be integrated efficiently in one workflow.
All process steps are fully integrated by Prinect, enabling the workflow to be demonstrated live from the initial job inquiry right through to printing and delivery.
Bernhard Schreier, chief executive officer of Heidelberg, commented: "Heidelberg is the only supplier in the industry today that is able to present its complete workflow in such a way - tailored to meet the needs of its customers and demonstrated under practical conditions.
Existing customers and potential customers can see the benefits of integrated workflow management for themselves under live conditions and are handed a finished brochure at the end of the presentation." The auditorium at the Print Media Centre holds up to 50 people and the equipment in the Prinect Live Demo Centre includes systems for job management, Prinect Prinance, Direct Access and the Prinect Integration System.
In addition, pre-press equipment and systems includes Prinect Printready, the Remote Access Server, Prinect Signa Station, Prinect Meta Dimension, Prinect Meta Shooter, Prinect Profile Toolbox and Prinect Calibration Toolbox as well as Heidelberg's Suprasetter H74.
The press area in the centre features Prinect Axis Control, Prinect Image Control, Prinect Pressroom Manager, Prinect CP2000 Centre and a Heidelberg Speedmaster SM 52 4H press.
Postpress facilities include the Prinect Data Terminal, the Polar 78 XT and Heidelberg's Stahlfolder TH5.
