SEP. / 09 Xeikon 8000 . Digital Printing Device
Punch Graphix develops, manufactures and distributes high-end digital printing systems under the Xeikon brand name. In addition, the company also supplies related prepress and operating software and durable consumer goods such as toners. Xeikon thus offers integrated solutions for professional applications in the field of commercial print and for the industrial sector (for example, packaging and labels).
Punch Graphix asked Achilles Associates to design the housing of the Xeikon 8000. The housing has to link this machine visually to the rest of the Xeikon family, but still has to be unique. The designers of Achilles relied on the proven design language of the previously designed Xeikon 5000, and added some radical design elements.
The result is a similar, organically flowing design, with more pronounced and bold details. The material used is steel. www.xeikon.com |
