Aura Brand Solutions to launch new tech at Commercial Vehicle Show
Aura Brand Solutions will return to the Commercial Vehicle Show tomorrow, demonstrating solutions including a new AI-powered vehicle auditing software
Durst has announced the launch of Kyveris, an autonomous production system designed optimise performance and reduce waste, as part of its 90th anniversary
Print technology manufacturer, Durst Group, is celebrating its 90th anniversary this year, marking its evolution from a small photography workshop to a global provider of industrial and wide-format digital printing.
Durst began in 1936 with two brothers opening a small workshop in Brixen, Italy, evolving over the decades from a small precision workshop into a key manufacturer of photographic technology.
Durst made a big splash in the digital printing technology realm in 1994 with the launch of the Durst Lambda 130, which represented a key transition in print technology from analogue enlargers to digital imaging.
Today, Durst solutions are offered in wide-format printing through the P5 platform, labels and flexo packaging through the Tau Platform, and a range of other specialised solutions including the Alpha Series of textile printers and UV-LED flatbeds through subsidiary, Vanguard.
To mark the 90-year milestone, Durst has unveiled Kyveris, an AI-powered ‘production intelligence’ platform for digital production.
Kyveris aims to transform digital printing and additive manufacturing by unifying files, machines, software, data, and AI into a single, autonomous production system that can optimise performance and reduce waste.
While Durst is yet to reveal full details of Kyveris, the company says that it marks the transition from precision hardware to production intelligence, with all processes converging into an intelligent, continuously learning production system.
The end-goal is to create a production environment that is transparent, reproducible, and increasingly autonomous – moving toward Durst’s vision of what it calls “the lights-out factory.”
The manufacturer describes Kyveris as “the logical consequence of decades of in-house development in digital printing” as well as a “decisive step in the company’s industrial evolution.”
Durst will present its first showcase of the new technology at the upcoming FESPA Global Print Expo 2026 in Barcelona, as well as at the Durst Next Technology Festival in its native Italy.
Christoph Gamper, chief executive officer and co-owner of the Durst Group, says: “Durst has never been a manager of the status quo – we have always been a creator of the next standard.
“After 90 years of precision engineering, we are taking the next logical step: production intelligence for digital printing and additive manufacturing. We no longer think of production as a machine or a workflow, but as an intelligent, continuously learning system. With Kyveris, we are defining the next evolutionary stage of digital production technology.”
