At the Think Smart Factory event in Kyoto, we got the chance to talk to VP Marketing & Partnering, Hans Gut from Hunkeler. Hunkeler and Horizon have been working together for years, and of course, it makes sense for both companies to exhibit at each other’s events like Think Smart Factory and Hunkeler Innovationdays. Where Hunkeler has focused on reel-based finishing equipment, Horizon has focused on sheets – and of course, their equipment interfaces with both printers, and other finishing equipment.
In this interview, Hans Gut speaks about the automation opportunities, and that the need for even more automation is a huge demand from printers.
Enjoy this interview!
