Hello everyone, this is Jacques from Inkish at the Hunkeler Innovation Days, and I’m here at the Ultimate stand and I have a German customer. I’m talking to Ingo, Ingo from myposter.de.
Hello Ingo. -Hello Jacques.
How are you? -I’m fine.
You okay? -Yes.

So, welcome to the UltimateTech stand. So tell me, of course, we have not yet met.

So who are you?

So myposter.de is already a big name in Germany, but please introduce yourself and tell us what you are doing at the Hunkeler Innovation Days.

Yes, I’m from Printhouse GmbH. We are the production unit of myposter.de and Kartenliebe.de.

We produce all the products that come in through our online shops.
And we are her find out about the latest technologies, the latest machines, the latest possibilities, what is available here.
Yes, well, that’s nice to.
I also hear from others here and I would like to hear that from you too.
So how do you do it all, since you print all the jobs online?
And how do you get it out then? Because of course you also need the software behind it. So how do you do it?
Exactly. So we collect all day, we have programmed our own system, where our entire order management is located.
We collect orders from our shops all day long, they are being held back at our end.

And at 12:30 a.m., our workflows begin. And then we have workflow systems that process all of that and process all our data and send it to all our units, so that every machine is stocked at 6 a.m., when the shift starts with all the day’s orders so that the operators can get started and start producing.

You told me that you work with HP Indigo machines, among other things. in the bindery and so on.

What is the procedure in your organization? You say it starts at six o’clock.
Yes.

And how do all the documents actually get How are they processed there, actually? and what do you need for it?

Yes, well, we have an Enfocus Switch Workflow, who processes all the data.

We basically get image data and job information from the shop. They are recorded in Switch, processed and then run through the workflow and are ejected with Ultimate, and transferred to the aggregates with Ultimate’s Binary, with all JDF information included.

The data is already fully sorted in the Queue on each machine.

Yes, and how did you actually come up with this solution?
Have you tried that? How did you even know?
We have looked into what is available on the market and at some point came across Enfocus or rather Impress, who distribute the whole thing, and then looked up Impressed to see what was available, what options are available and started from scratch, building the whole thing and putting it together with Enfocus and Ultimate built the entire workflow.

It’s nice to hear, but everyone thinks, ” Yes, the printer, but the pressure from the printer is no longer the word that complements everything, because there is so much more to software, the solutions you need to be able to handle all of this flexibly and dynamically. Exactly. Just one last question, maybe for you.

What do you think you will need in the next few months or so? for new technology? What do you see here or what appeals to you?

And what do you think you might need in addition? in your operation?
What will become our main focus in the future, is the automation between the units. This means that the job must run fully automatically through production.
The units, whether printing or processing, are now all very good, very high quality. We have to look at the in-between.
That is, how it gets from one to the next and how the data flow then, so to speak that everything works fully automatically when the company is in operation. That will be the focus.

Yes, well, Ingo, it’s great that we hear it like this.

Well, I’m sure that Ultimate and the other partners, you’ve come to the right place.

Best of luck and success with everything you are doing and thanks for the little chat here. -Thanks too. -Thanks, bye.
