All six machines will gradually commence production activities, starting in mid-2024.
Koenig & Bauer Corrugated director Hannah Potrawa said: “Even if the four ChromaCUT X Pro Machines for our partner Saica have partially different configurations, short set-up times through quick job changeover and automation, as well as a simple and intuitive use, were the common, main focus for all the projects.

According to Koenig & Bauer, the ChromaCUT X Pro-machinery to be supplied to Saica will be partly delivered with a new presettable rotary die cutter and will have the capacity to process a maximum of 2.8 metre (m) wide sheets.
The two Chroma HighTech lines are said to have the capacity to process up to 2.1m-wide sheets.
Both machines will include a series of advanced features such as Zero-Defects technology.
Saica’s latest investment in these six machines builds on its existing partnership with Koenig & Bauer.
The Spanish paper and packaging company is already using Koenig & Bauer’s various machines across its European facilities.
Koenig & Bauer Sales head Luca Celotti said: “It is really a great advantage that we have, at Koenig & Bauer Celmacch, such a wide machinery portfolio with different automation and performance levels. Our customers get in touch with us and they can freely decide which machine model perfectly fits their order structure.”
