About Koenig & Bauer Kammann
Koenig & Bauer Kammann GmbH has been developing and manufacturing industrial printing machines of “Made in Germany” quality since 1955. The focus is on the screen printing process for the decoration of glass packaging, in particular medical and pharmaceutical glass containers, as well as plastic hollow bodies. Building on this specialization, the company has developed expertise that is also in demand in other industries. The product range today includes universal and indexed-carousel screen printing machines (including the K1, K15, K20 and HS series), rotary screen printing systems in the cylinder printing system, and custom special-purpose machines for various printing processes. The offering is complemented by a project department for turnkey factory systems, technical support, original spare parts, maintenance contracts, product upgrades and machine training. The company is a subsidiary of the Koenig & Bauer Group and is active worldwide through representatives on all continents; its headquarters are located in Löhne in East Westphalia-Lippe.
