Equipped with the latest technology, and tried and tested with over 40,000 units sold, the Speedmaster SX 52 provides an alternative way for print shops to compete with web-to-print and digital printing.
Open up new markets: the Speedmaster SX 52 sets standards, whether with UV technology for high-quality finishings or as an eight-color or perfecting press.
Both smaller and large print shops can benefit from the Speedmaster SX 52. It is designed for high productivity with printing speeds of up to 15,000 sheets per hour. Thanks to the Prinect Press Center 3 control station, it is easy to operate and can be integrated into the Prinect workflow.
"In 2017, in a move designed to increase our flexibility and efficiency even further, we opted to invest in a five-color Speedmaster SX 52 press with coating unit. The press can be operated either with full-UV or LED UV inks, making us much more flexible when it comes to printing plastics. This means we can now also produce special applications such as mouse pads, mats and high-end gift boxes."
