ACCHSH and its Partners at Poligrafia 2009 Fair
Warsaw, 25.03.2009
Once again the Polish-based ACCHSH company will be among the exhibitors at Poligrafia, the most important printing fair in Poland, held in Poznan from 21 to 24 of April. The company’s booth will be divided into four zones, which will be focused on: solutions based on the PuzzleFlow workflow system, the ACCHSH’s flagship product; studio of digital photography organized in a co-operation with AC&C – the Polish distributor of Phase One, a world leader in professional digital photography; proofing solutions demonstrated in a co-operation with Ref-Graf – the Polish distributor of ORIS CGS, a world leader in contract proofing solutions; as well as a visualisation of a “live” digital production using engines from several vendors. All the above solutions will be presented at the booth of ACCHSH and its partners (No. 5, hall 5).
The first zone of the booth, realized together with AC&C company, will be arranged as a real studio of professional digital photography. Both companies will demonstrate the latest digital backs from Phase One, including the Phase One P65+ model, which has been recently introduced to the Polish market. This back is dedicated for professional digital cameras and is equipped with the world’s biggest CCD matrix of 60 Megapixel capacity.
The second zone of the booth will be devoted to the solutions based on the newest version of the PuzzleFlow system. One of them will be PuzzleFlow Factory, a complete solution for DTP, CtP and repro studios, enabling automation and optimizing of prepress production. The system offers the following features: common job repository, built-in job acquisition and verification system, multiple imposition stations and automated server side processing for repetitive tasks.
Another solution to be demonstrated in Poznan is PuzzleFlow PoD, an extensive application which supports and automates many tasks at printing houses. The program, which had its worldwide debut at the last year’s drupa fair, offers, for example, the following functions: acquiring, conversion, submission and verifying of jobs (supplied by the PuzzleFlow Express module) as well as automated prepress corrections, job management, approval and preview (as part of a MIS system).
Another new application in the ACCHSH’s offer is PuzzleFlow Publisher, enabling the management of graphic documents circulation and allowing for PDF file verification, optimizing and preparation for printing. It was shown for the first time at the last year’s IFRA Expo fair, being the first mature and market-ready solution created by the Amsterdam-headquartered PuzzleFlow Solutions Europe, a center of research & promotions created jointly by ACCHSH and the Dutch company Ready4Print. Recently PuzzleFlow Publisher has received the prestigious EDP Award from the European Digital Press Association as the best new workflow management system on the market.
The third zone of the ACCHSH’s booth will be arranged in a co-operation with Ref-Graf company, the Polish representative of ORIS CGS, the producer of highly advanced contract proofing software. Both vendors will present a common solution based on ACCHSH’s PuzzleFlow workflow system and the CGS’ ORIS Color Tuner/Web software which – according to its Polish distributor – offers completely new opportunities in preparing and certification of digital proofs.
In our opinion it’s a real breakthrough in a remote contract proofing market – says Andrzej Basinski, owner of Ref-Graf. – At the moment we can say it’s the No. 1 solution in this market area. The Internet-based platform, remote availability in a global and local scale, integration of certification tools, easy handling, intuitive user interface as well as flexibility, speed, color management capabilities, high effectiveness and cost savings are just a few benefits of the new ORIS CGS’s solution.
Besides that, other solutions from ORIS CGS company will be presented: ORIS Color Tuner hybrid proofing system, ORIS Press Matcher colors processing server, ORIS Ink Saver tool and ORIS PDF Tuner – the PDF files editor.
The fourth zone of the ACCHSH’s stand will be equipped with special monitors, which will present a “virtual” production using PuzzleFlow-based solutions and digital presses from several vendors. ACCHSH specialists will connect on-line with other exhibitors at Poligrafia trade fair, offering digital color presses, and conduct “live” demos presenting opportunities of PuzzleFlow Solutions dedicated for the digital printing market.
Andrzej Czyz, CEO of ACCHSH, says: Our presence at this year’s Poligrafia fair will be lead under the following motto: “No. 1 in the world: from a studio of professional digital photography, through contract proofing to digital and offset printing”. In Poznan we will present the top class solutions enabling effective and economical printing production, devoted both for DTP and CtP studios as well as for printing houses using digital and traditional presses in a daily production. We deeply hope that the demonstrated technologies, created by Phase One, ACCHSH and ORIS CGS companies as well as the vendors of the top quality digital presses, will attract attention from many people visiting our booth.
