German screenprinter Bachmann has bought the Inca Digital Onset X3 currently situated in Fujifilm’s wide-format zone at Drupa. The printer - the first X3 sold in Germany - will be shipped directly to Bachmann’s Schloss Holte-Stukenbrock print production facility.
Bachmann currently operates two four-colour screen machines, one five-colour screen machine, and an Onset S40i bought at Drupa 2012. The company’s CEO, Heinz-Peter Bachmann, 
said of the latest purchase: “The Onset X3 is going to open up a range of new opportunities to us with its strong combination of substrate versatility, speed and quality. We feel that our future lies increasingly in high quality, on-demand, lower-volume work, and the Onset X3 is going to help us to build that future.”
Bachmann has ordered its Onset X3 with Hostert automation that loads sheets one at a time from an automatic feeder, prints, then unloads the finished print to a second stack.
