It was not an industrial corporation or a global brand \u2013 it was an idea: the ambition to do things better. More precise. More consistent. More forward-looking.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ninety years later, that photo workshop has evolved into a globally leading manufacturer of industrial digital printing and additive manufacturing systems. Durst stands for technological excellence, for \u201cMade in Durst\u201d quality \u2013 defined by deep in-house development expertise, precision and an uncompromising commitment to performance \u2013 as well as entrepreneurial independence and long-term thinking. Machines became systems. Products became integrated production intelligence. Hardware evolved into a holistic understanding of digital value creation. Standing still has never been part of the Durst story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At Durst, innovation is neither a trend nor a project. It is part of the company\u2019s DNA. Each generation has reimagined and advanced the business \u2013 from analog photography to industrial digitalization and fully networked production environments. Today, Durst once again stands at a pivotal moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The next evolutionary step is called Kyveris\u2122 \u2013 The AI-Powered Intelligence for Digital Production.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Kyveris transforms digital printing and additive manufacturing by unifying files, machines, software, data, and AI into a single, autonomous production system that continuously learns, optimizes performance, reduces waste, and drives efficiency at scale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kyveris is built on nine decades of engineering. Thousands of production systems installed worldwide have taught us: how ink meets substrate, how jobs behave across shifts, how quality drifts and how to prevent it. This knowledge \u2013 captured, structured, and continuously expanding \u2013 is what drives Kyveris\u2122 learning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Without revealing full details at this stage, Kyveris\u2122 marks the transition from precision hardware to production intelligence. Machines, software, data and processes converge into an intelligent, continuously learning production system. The goal is a production environment that is not only automated, but transparent, reproducible and increasingly autonomous \u2013 moving toward our vision of the \u201clights-out factory.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kyveris\u2122 is not an isolated innovation initiative nor a distant future scenario. It is the logical consequence of decades of in-house development in digital printing and additive manufacturing, evolving market demands, advances in data architecture and artificial intelligence, and the strategic acquisitions Durst has consistently pursued in recent years. A decisive step in the company\u2019s industrial evolution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Durst will present its first showcase at FESPA 2026 and at the Durst Next Technology Festival (<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.durst-group.com\/durst90\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">www.durst-group.com\/durst90<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Christoph Gamper, CEO and co-owner of the Durst Group, explains:<br>\u201cDurst 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\u2122, we are defining the next evolutionary stage of digital production technology.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the coming months, Durst will present further details on the technological layers behind Kyveris\u2122 \u2013 including data architecture, AI integration, automation and production intelligence \u2013 and outline the strategic roadmap ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Durst celebrates 90 years of innovation \u2013 while shaping the future of digital production<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sometimes a great story begins quietly.In 1936, two brothers laid the foundation in a small workshop in Brixen, South Tyrol, for what is today the Durst Group.
