Koenig & Bauer Hosts LED Light Curing at 19th Cortina User Workshop

Koenig & Bauer is set to showcase the next wave of innovation in waterless offset printing at the 19th Cortina User Workshop, held from September 23–24, 2025, at Freiburger Druck. With over 80 participants expected, the event will highlight the promising introduction of LED light curing—a more compact, energy-efficient, and sustainable alternative to traditional heatset dryers. Hosted by BZ Medien’s Freiburger Druck, a longtime Cortina user, the workshop will combine technical sessions, user discussions, and hands-on demonstrations to explore how LED technology can streamline production while cutting energy costs and emissions.

"We can significantly extend our value chain with this technology,” noted Patrick Zürcher, Managing Director at BZ Medien. “As a result, we are more economical and... significantly more environmentally friendly and resource efficient.” The upgrade offers key benefits: zero warm-up times, reduced ink and energy use, lower CO₂ emissions, and a smaller production footprint—all making it a compelling option for new and retrofit rotary press installations.
