Star attraction for Heidelberg is Printmaster

Visitors to Heidelbergs Open House at its UK headquarters in Brentford had the chance to see its latest B3 press, the Printmaster 52, which paid a fleeting visit to the UK.

UK sales director Jim Todd said more than 100 visitors attended each of the open houses four days.

The Printmaster 52 on show last week, a two-colour machine, has since been shipped to Hamburg. Those not attending will now have to wait until Drupa to see the press, which will be ready to ship after the exhibition.

Also on show were a 10-colour Speedmaster 102-10P, five-colour CD 74-5LX-C, five-colour Speedmaster 52-5P, Digimaster 9150, NexPress 2100, Prinect workflow and new Probinder wire combbinder.

The next open house will be held in Tamworth from 5-8 November.
