The event included a live demo on the Highcon Euclid IIIC machine
Following the recent launch of the Highcon Euclid IIIC digital cutting and creasing machine for corrugated board, Highcon and LxBxH in Switzerland hosted a VIP event on 16 April.
The Highcon Engage event introduced the potential of digital finishing to a wide variety of visitors from eight countries who came to learn about the real-life experience of LxBxH using the machine.
Over 70 people attended the event which included a live demo on the Highcon Euclid IIIC machine, an introduction by Aviv Ratzman, Highcon CEO and co-founder, and a presentation by Silvano Gauch, president of LxBxH, describing his daily work with the technology.
Mr Gauch told the guests, ‘We took a close look at where the market is going and one important point was that our batch size was actually declining over the years. Also, in our factory, more than a third of our orders are Just-in-Time delivery, which means we produce, keep in stock and wait for the customer to need something. The third trend is towards more complex packaging – more die-cutting, less inline boxes.
‘In order to solve these issues, I wanted to move to Just-in-time production and that was our objective in looking at the machine. The Highcon Euclid solved our problems and met our objectives.’
