On May 15, 2025, Beijing - Durst, a pioneer and leader in global digital printing technology, unveiled its heavyweight digital label printing machine Tau RSCi at the 11th Beijing International Printing Technology Exhibition (ChinaPrint 2025). At this exhibition, Durst's theme is "Now, Future". Through the concept of time travel, Durst leads the audience from the brand's long history to the current era of deep cultivation of digital printing technology, and finally looks forward to the future digital printing 5.0 era supported by Durst. As the focus of the exhibition, Tau RSCi is not only the most cutting-edge digital inkjet label printing model on the market, but also a technology platform for the future, helping customers maintain long-term advantages in future competition.
Time Travel: From History to the Future, Take a Glance at the Legend of Digital Printing
The Durst booth is designed with the core concept of "time travel" and is divided into three themed areas: "Historical Tunnel", "Peak of the Mountains", and "Future Realm". The audience stepped into the booth, as if entering a time and space tunnel, experiencing firsthand how Durst went from a pioneer in the imaging industry to a global leader in digital printing technology.
Historical Corridor: The Pioneer Road of Digital Printing
Durst's career started in 1929 and was officially established in 1936. Initially, it started with imaging technology and quickly became a leader in the industry with its persistent pursuit of technology. In the 1990s, Durst keenly captured the potential of digital printing technology and became one of the earliest companies in the world to engage in digital printing research and development. The historical tunnel of the booth showcases Durst's multiple "firsts" in its nearly 90 year development journey, laying the foundation for Durst's pioneering position in the field of digital printing.
Top of the Peaks: Deeply cultivating digital technology, leading the industry
At the 'Summit of the Peaks' area, Durst showcased its latest digital printing technology and solutions. As a top 1 player in the field of digital inkjet printing, Durst has always been driven by innovation to provide customers with efficient, accurate, and environmentally friendly printing solutions. The core exhibit of the booth - Tau RSCi digital label printing machine, is the best embodiment of Durst's technological strength. This model not only represents the highest level of the current inkjet printing label market, but also becomes an important tool for customers to move towards the future with its outstanding performance and forward-looking design.
The Future Realm: The Infinite Possibilities of Digital Printing 5.0
The "Future Realm" area showcases Durst's 360 ° end-to-end solution through a large screen, fully reflecting Durst's exploration and vision for the future of digital printing. With Durst's support, the digital printing 5.0 era will achieve a higher degree of intelligence, personalization, and sustainability. Through software solutions such as online stores, workflows, and intelligent analytics, as well as a range of new AI tools, Durst strives to accelerate customers' overall workflow and production efficiency, empowering them to stay ahead in future competition.
Tau RSCi: A Future oriented Digital Label Printing Platform
As a heavyweight exhibit at this exhibition, the Tau RSCi digital label printing machine has attracted the attention of many visitors. This model is not only a symbol of Durst's technological strength, but also a future oriented technology platform that provides customers with long-term competitive advantages.
Leading technology, excellent performance
Tau RSCi adopts Durst's latest inkjet printing technology, with a native resolution of up to 1200 * 1200dpi, which can achieve printing quality comparable to offset printing. Meanwhile, its high-speed printing capability (up to 100 meters per minute) and excellent color performance (covering over 95% of Pantone colors) make it the preferred device in the high-end label printing market.
Intelligence and flexibility
Tau RSCi is equipped with an advanced intelligent control system that supports automated color management, remote monitoring, and predictive maintenance, greatly improving production efficiency and equipment stability. In addition, its modular design allows customers to flexibly configure according to their needs, meeting diverse production requirements.
Environmental Protection and Sustainability
As a sustainable enterprise, Durst has incorporated many environmental considerations into the design of Tau RSCi. Especially the new LED ink not only reduces its impact on the environment in terms of composition and improves the safety of printed materials, but also further expands the range of printing materials while reducing energy consumption and usage costs.
Facing the future, continuously upgrading
Tau RSCi is not only a high-performance printing equipment, but also a future oriented technology platform that ensures users maintain a leading position for a long time to come. As Christoph Gamper, CEO of Durst Group, said, "Tau RSCi is not only designed to meet current market demand, but also to help customers maintain an advantage in future competition

Durst P5 platform: Diversified applications, breaking through internal competition
In addition to the heavyweight label platform, Durst also brought many samples of the popular P5 platform in the large format printing industry. In this era of fierce competition, product differentiation is an important factor in breaking through internal competition. A variety of applications were showcased on site, including Durst relief, flip color change, fluorescence, lens printing, and various photo oil effects. The implementation of these special effects is thanks to the multi-layer printing function and advanced UV printing technology of the P5 platform, which can provide more visually impactful and value-added solutions for advertising production.
In addition, this exhibition also received strong support from the VITART brand, with a total of 3 high-end VITART art reproductions exhibited. These works demonstrate Durst's strong strength in the field of art printing through high-precision replication technology. VITART's art reproduction works not only have extremely high artistic value, but also bring new ideas and inspirations to printers, proving the enormous potential of digital printing in the field of high-end art reproduction.
