The core business of Heidelberg USA is developing and selling sheetfed printing presses. Heidelberg played a key role in making offset printing the prevailing technology today, and leads the print media industry in this segment.
Today the company offers two different lines of sheetfed
presses: Printmaster and Speedmaster. The Printmaster series is
specially geared to the need of small and medium-sized print shops
that are just getting started with multicolor offset printing or
want to grow into this market. The Speedmaster models offer a high
level of automation and productivity, primarily targeting
industrialized printing operations. These presses can also be
flexibly equipped for a wide range of special applications.

Nowadays, the structure of orders in the print sector has become totally different. There is a trend towards more color while the circulation numbers drop. These high demands on the printing process also are an enormous challenge for the prepress departments. Automation is the keyword. In this context, computer-to-plate has a vast number of benefits in stock for the graphical industry.
