Bobst Connect is ready to launch

The new package – Bobst Connect Essential – is available from 1 July, and offers a host of features and functionalities to help customers optimise their packaging production at every stage. By linking different steps of the process, Bobst Connect improves efficiency, control, and data knowledge, driving quality and productivity across the value chain.

Bobst Connect Essential includes an end-to-end digital solution, a powerful set of data and digital tools together in one fully connected platform and puts the power and knowledge of Bobst at the fingertips of its users. As a live platform, it will evolve to include new functionalities, new machines and more machine data. 

Bobst Connect can link directly to customers’ existing systems and platforms and integrates with third party cloud-based applications across the value chain, making the experience seamless. In terms of security, Bobst Connect is hosted in a fully secure, ISO 27001-certified environment, providing complete reassurance of data security and privacy.

“In today’s packaging environment, data has become king, and can provide a significant competitive advantage,” said Léonard Badet, chief technology officer. “Bobst Connect helps customers take advantage of the wealth of data produced by their machines, providing the insights and range of solutions that can unlock advances in efficiency, quality, and productivity.”

“At Bobst, we are helping connect our customers to a digitised and automated workflow, while at the same time providing best-in-class machines and a great service experience,” said Raphael Indermühle, head of business unit services and performance. “Bobst Connect achieves all this and puts our customers fully in control of their own production process.”
