Benefits
Combination
- No manual puzzling anymore, no loss of time.
- Immediately the best combinations technologically feasible
- Savings up to 10-15% on total production cost compared with the best manual result
- 10% extra savings on material costs for uniform cases
- Optimisation of the overall cost: material cost, printing cost, cutting cost, ...
- Automatic splitting into multiple impositions, based on cost
- Optimisation as a function of the packaging size
Printing
- No material waste anymore: generates good filled impositions. Exploits the allowed (invoice able) surplus.
- Automatic computation of the best printing workstyle, the lowest number of sheet passes, the lowest number of printing plates, selection of the best press. Detailed production description as result.
- Production-machines, together with parameters and usage preferences have to be defined only once.
Cutting, die cutting and punching
- Easily cuttable impositions
- Minimises of the number of cutting movements
- Optimises for coupled production lines: guillotine-cutting/stroke-cutting/punching (e.g.: Blumer, Polar)
- Up to 10% extra saving on material costs for given die cut forms.
Interfaces
- Fast computation of the best quotes via the portal.
- Detailed description for the prepress, the pressroom and the cutting process as output in XML-format. Simple interface for the prepress and the production.
- Impositions may be modified easily in the prepress into equivalent variants, in order to take account of printing colour restrictions
- Link with Multipress
