Visual PressSupport is a tool that makes communica- tion much easier for both users and hotline technicians. The hotline technician sees what the press operator or service technician sees on the press. He can be shown processes and procedures live via video and gain a quick and comprehensive overview of the situation at the press. This facilitates communication, saves the need for exten- sive explanations and reduces the risk of misunderstand- ings compared to a conventional telephone call. But Visual PressSupport can do even more; both the technician on site and the hotline technician can apply markings to the still images generated live. These markers help to carry out function checks or settings on the correct part or to record the current status separately close-up. In this way, it can help to limit malfunctions or be used to transfer operating and setting aids. In addition, the operator or technician at the press can share images from the album on their mobile device with the hotline. These can show certain press behavior that only occurs sporadically and therefore cannot be picked up on live. Data security is guaranteed at the same time as the hotline technician can only see the media that has been shared and no other content. “Visual PressSupport is another example of the con- sistent implementation of our digitization strategy,” said Ralf Sammeck, CEO of Koenig & Bauer Sheetfed & Group CDO. “The focus is on the business benefit for our custom- ers. Everything that contributes to higher availability and productivity and improves communication is of decisive added value for our customers.”
