HIFLEX to have substantial presence at IPEX 2006 Pressmehr Info
At this year's most important printing industry trade show, IPEX in Birmingham (04.-11.04.2006), MIS vendor HIFLEX will present the status quo of JDF technology on their stand 20-B100. One of the features to be demonstrated is the new and unique functionality within the HIFLEX MIS (Management Information System): the modification of PPF ink-key profiles to make them consistent with CIP4-data. This will completely remove the need for the manual assignment of CIP3-files (normally required in a conventional prepress-press workflow), and machine presetting is completely automated due to the synchronisation with the CIP4-datastream.
HIFLEX will present live JDF demonstrations several times per day on their stand. These demonstrations will show the JDF-link between HIFLEX MIS and the systems from ADOBE, AGFA, KBA, KODAK, KOMORI, MAN Roland, MBO und MULLER MARTINI. "We're building on our experience from previous exhibitions, and sticking with this proven concept at IPEX: In our three-screen theatre, we will demonstrate live JDF-interaction between HIFLEX and other systems. In addition, we will have the facility to give several, simultaneous individual presentations that allow to go into more details for interested visitors", explains Stefan Reichhart, CEO of HIFLEX.

PPF data as displayed in HIFLEX  

At IPEX 2006, new functionality in the HIFLEX MIS will be demonstrated: CIP3 Files (PPF format) are sent from the prepress workflow system to the HIFLEX MIS, where they are automatically assigned to the order's printing processes and modified to be consistent with the JDF standard. The presses thus receive all pre-setting data from a single source.

The HIFLEX stand, 20-B100, is located in the new MIS zone: a dedicated area for MIS vendors, which is the first time such a resource has been made available at a graphic arts exhibition. The MIS zone has been introduced to centralise Management Information Systems and related products. The area begins directly at the atrium entrance to hall 20. Near to the HIFLEX stand, is the CIP4 organisation's "Process Automation and JDF Pavilion". CIP4 are responsible for the specification of the Job Definition Format (JDF) standard. HIFLEX will also present case-studies of real-life installations at CIPPI Award winning companies in the JDF Pavilion. In the 2005 CIP4 Printing Innovation Award, two HIFLEX customers won the first prize in two out of the three categories. Another HIFLEX customer was given an exclusive honourable mention in the third category.
HIFLEX will not only demonstrate proven JDF connectivity on their own stand and in the CIP4 Pavilion; they will also be present on several partners' stands, with whom several real-life installation have already been realized. These live demonstrations will take place on the following vendors' stands: AGFA, ESKO, FUJI, KBA, KOMORI, MAN Roland, MBO, RYOBI. In total, about 20 HIFLEX licenses will be installed on partner stands. The widespread acceptance of the HIFLEX System among leading vendors of prepress-, press-, and postpress-systems underlines HIFLEX's technological leadership in the area of MIS Systems and JDF.
