The PremiumLine has a range of high-speed cutting machines, including the new 92 and 115, as well as the 132, all three running live at the show. “The EcoLine is a standard cutting machine aimed at critical markets with lower budgets while the PremiumLine offers options, like lifting of material as well as a jogger for alignment of sheets to the cutting pile that would automate the cutting process,” said Ronny Neugartner, sales manager for Perfecta.

Speaking about the big deal numbers, Neugartner said this is twice the number of confirmation it received during the last Drupa. “We attribute this success to the growing demand in the book, and book finishing segment, which was not visible during the last Drupa.”

Perfect is expecting to close the show with 40 confirmations. “There are enough prospects to perhaps cross that number too,” said Neugartner.
