Leveraging BOBST’s proven flexo experience and innovative inkjet technology, the DIGITAL MASTER series of presses provide a fully digitalized and automated production line, from printing to embellishment and die-cutting. The modular architecture enables customers to configure each press to fit their exact requirements and upgrade later to respond to the changing needs of their customers.
The agreement came into effect during the month of July 2023.
