To maintain the delivery reliability Posterlounge’s customers have come to expect, even during peak periods, swissQprint’s Kudu flatbed printer has provided the necessary performance headroom. With speeds of up to 341sqm/h, it processes all jobs efficiently and reliably within a single day shift.
‘This was a major relief, especially during the Christmas season,’ said Philipp Dietrich, Head of Printing and Cutting. ‘What convinced us was the overall package from swissQprint. With the Kudu, we have an extremely reliable and proven machine with very low operating costs. We also appreciate the exceptionally fair maintenance contract with an unusually long warranty period of 36 months,’ summarised Florian Teßmer, CEO and founder.
The printer operates reliably, standing out for its certified high energy efficiency, low ink costs and minimal maintenance requirements. The investment therefore also supports the company’s sustainability targets, which is why it was supported by funding from the EU’s European Regional Development Fund programme and the Free State of Saxony.
Precision is essential in fine art printing. The latest-generation swissQprint flatbed printer impresses with outstanding colour accuracy and smooth gradients (thanks to light colours), as well as embellishment capabilities using varnish. In addition, neon inks have unlocked creative possibilities for new design collections. This further sharpens Posterlounge’s profile as a supplier of high-quality, customised print products.
The Posterlounge team appreciates the system’s versatility: Kudu processes both rigid boards and roll media, ideal for a wide range of applications, from posters, wall decals and canvas prints to wallpapers. The combination of flatbed and roll-to-roll capability also provides a backup solution should another system be unavailable.
Dietrich is enthusiastic, ‘The Kudu runs absolutely reliably and consistently throughout the day. The variety of materials and applications perfectly matches our day-to-day requirements, there is hardly anything left to wish for.’
Falk Teßmer, CEO and founder, added, ‘During the evaluation phase, we heard nothing but positive feedback about swissQprint in the market, and it all proved true. We made the right decision.’ He is impressed by the product development and the renowned Swiss precision of the machines, and praises the competent support. Longevity, reliability and service quality complete the overall picture.
