avoiding errors it is essential to have
complete inline control systems. He de-
scribes Hunkeler’s control system and
software for tracking as robust. “It’s
binary, precise, reliable and straightfor-
ward. Considering the company’s an-
nual output of 600 million A4 pages, we
have 6 errors per billion pages thanks to
the tracking system,” he says.
An example of
software, automation and col-
laboration with Teknolist
The key to success in high volume
digital printing is to find a communica-
tion challenge with a significant person-
alization and security component and
then to creatively address it with a com-
bination of software and inline automa-
tion. To take on such a challenge profit-
ably, it helps greatly to collaborate with
specialists and one of Meteksan’s col-
laboration is with publisher Teknolist,
a leader in the domain of educational
printing and software that has been part
and parcel of their mutual success. Both
companies take smart publishing to the
next level by offering tailored educa-
tional material and secure examinations
printed for classrooms using software
and cloud based solutions. Each print-
ed document is enabled by a software
driven workflow that intelligently puts
together components contained in a da-
tabase as well as PDF elements.

The imposition, assembly, finishing
and logistics of each personalized edu-
cational material or examination book-
let is enabled by the machine readable
printed marks on each page and the ap-
plication of security features to the fin-
ished product. “Meteksan’s challenge in
achieving this integration and dynamic
flexibility was to find a solution which
would handle a wide variety of data and
formats automatically, and fit within
our business model from ordering to
delivery,” says Meteksan’s Alper Çifçi,
Digital Printing Group manager of Me-
teksan Digital.
Alper adds that the entire opera-
tion has to be reliable and redundant.
“It’s mission critical – we print within
one day of receiving an order and we
deliver within three days. Apart from
the continuous investment in software
and hardware, the company’s in-house
technicians are trained by Océ and Hun-
keler. Our technicians in Ankara, Oce’s
technicians in Poing and Hunkeler’s in
Wikon are able to communicate and
work together seamlessly as if under
one roof,” he says.
Thus the production of digitally
printed personalised books for educa-
tional purposes or to perform safe ex-
ams for schools, classrooms or subjects
is highly collaborative but completely
automated and secure. Furthermore by
eliminating communication errors it be-
comes efficient. In Teknolist’s example
both companies continuously invest in
intelligent and automated workflows
that leverage their expertise in tailored
and intuitive educational material as
well as the periodic and secure exami-
nation system that drives the entire sys-
tem forward.
Educational assessment and evalu-
ation of student progress are carried
out by web-based tools and the plan is
to extend these tools to analyse both
achievement and deficiencies. These in
turn can be used to automatically select
and develop customized content for
both students and teachers.
Meteksan is ready to provide digital
printed solutions for ever more innova-
tive and smart publishing products and
secure examination solutions using its
print, nishing and logistics on-demand
workflow. Alper Çifçi says, “Meteksan,
together with partners like Teknolist,
Hunkeler and Canon, has the right tools
to comfortably enter a new era of our
educational market with the confidence
that we have the ability to succeed, and
deliver a new and exciting service to
our own customers in the future.”
