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!

Transpromo revalues transactional. Individual advertising messages integrated into invoices address customers needs and increase customer loyalty. This value added is further enhanced by the variable design of vouchers and membership cards, which are geared to the recipients.

Carlos Carratalá Sanchis · EFI @ #SeikoOpen...
EFI and Seiko have been partners for years, and for industrial printing, EFI relied on the expertise of Seiko. At Seiko Open Week 2022, Carlos Carrtalá Sanchis and a few of his colleagues joined the Open Week 2022 event to learn, share, and find inspiration. Interesting always to see how collaboration is a given among large companies! GREAT!
