capabilities with a DX-50 folding and thread sewing system from Smyth. <\/b>Because Konzett had recently invested in a digital printing press, adding the DX-50 meant that they were able to expand their product portfolio significantly. <b>They can now offer the complete production of all types of books in-house, especially high quality, short and very short runs. <\/b>Customers can order thread-sewn books from their online store.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">By investing in a DX-50, Konzett also added value in other areas: as a bookbindery, they can now handle thread stitching and book production for printers in neighboring regions and add to their list of possible services, the binding of academic theses.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>One of the main reasons that Konzett decided to buy the DX-50 was because of its integrated folding unit, which eliminates the need for an external folding operation. <\/b>They were also drawn by the DX-50&#8217;s short makeready time and ability to change jobs quickly\u2014a decisive factor in the cost-effective production of short runs.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div
