SHERIDAN, WYOMING – May 8, 2025 – swissQprint showcased a compelling suite of innovations at the Fespa Global Print Expo 2025, with its Generation 5 flatbed printers commanding attention among industry leaders and buyers alike. The Swiss manufacturer demonstrated its continued commitment to productivity, customization, and high-margin application potential across global markets.
Next-Generation Flatbed Solutions Redefine Quality and Speed
At the heart of swissQprint’s presentation was the new Generation 5 flatbed printer line, which has been shipping to customers on all five continents since January. Engineered with a modular architecture, the trio of models—Kudu, Nyala, and Impala—offers enhanced flexibility and application diversity, built on a completely redesigned foundation.
A standout improvement is the 23% speed increase, with no compromise on output quality, achieving up to 341 m²/h. The addition of 10 color channels expands creative capabilities while streamlining complex jobs.
"Having our own swissQprint I did not think you could really improve it. It really is a step forward,” remarked John Langfield from Muraspec, underscoring customer recognition of the generational leap.
Diverse Applications Inspire and Drive Profitability
swissQprint’s booth featured themed “application worlds,” drawing attention to specialty effects such as neon prints and tactile finishes. These displays highlighted the versatility of the company’s solutions—both flatbed and roll to roll—for high-impact commercial, decorative, and industrial applications.
Live demonstrations of the Kudu and Nyala models illustrated real-time production capabilities, helping attendees visualize return on investment through creativity and efficiency.
Karibu 2 Roll to Roll Printer Adds Operational Edge
Also spotlighted was the Karibu 2, a 3.4-meter-wide UV roll to roll printer designed for both speed and precision. Unique productivity features such as a cassette system for fast roll handling, an integrated Mesh Kit for clean full bleed and mesh output, and a dual roll option for handling narrow substrates position Karibu 2 as a strong performer in high-throughput environments.
These capabilities reflect swissQprint’s strategic push to provide scalable solutions across varying production needs.
Proven ROI and Long-Term Value
Efficiency and reliability were central talking points throughout the exhibition. Katharina Vogt of declaro Beschriftungs GmbH in Germany stated, “With swissQprint, we save over 20,000 euros a year,” citing reduced maintenance costs and energy-efficient operation.
Key cost-saving and value-adding features include:
- 36-month factory warranty on all models
- Average power consumption of just 2.2 kWh—equivalent to a household kettle
- High throughput with consistent output quality
- Flexible configuration tailored to user needs
Such operational strengths position swissQprint systems as long-term assets for print service providers seeking to maximize uptime and profitability.
