Oliver Zund, chief executive officer of Zund CEO, said, “Printers of a broad spectrum of applications are asking for increased productivity and a seamlessly integrated work environment, from print to finishing. The demand for efficiency and reduced make-ready times prompts Zund to continuously invest in the research and development of easy to operate digital cutting systems, including advanced features to increase printers’ automation and productivity. We are confident that the solutions we are sharing with visitors at Ipex 2014 will help them towards a more profitable future.”

Zund S3 is a modular cutting system designed for 24x7 operation and can process range of materials up to 25 mm or one inch thick. User can choose different levels of material-handling automation and a variety of tools to deliver precise cutting and accurate jobs.

Besides S3, Zund will also showcase an automatic sheet feeder, tandem vacuum system, electric oscillating tool EOT 250 and Zund Design Centre.

The automatic sheet feeder is ideal for high volume production. Loading, advancing and off-loading are perfectly synchronised to deliver precision and efficiency, allowing printers to quickly manage larger orders.

The electric oscillating tool, EOT 250 is capable of handling cardboard, sandwich board and honeycomb material. On its stand at Ipex, Zünd will process sandwich board materials such as X-Board and Reboard up to 22mm thick, to demonstrate the features of this tool.

Zund Design Centre is an Adobe Illustrator plug-in to create 3D designs for packaging and displays. It provides a comprehensive library of ready-to-use designs in folding carton and corrugated cardboard.
