At booth G90, Hall 1, in focus will be a collaborative robot as part of the S3 M 800, fully automated cutting configuration.
“This time, the emphasis is going to be reducing the dependency on the labour and automating the process. In this way, one can enhance the productivity and improve the quality, as there would be lesser human interference. These features will enable a very quick turnaround time, which our customers are now looking for,” added Venkatesh.
The ARC system comes with a freely configurable magazine that holds up to eight router bits. During processing, the ARC selects the material and task at hand. This automation feature reduces time to a minimum and enhances the process. The ARC is ideal for routing, polishing, and engraving applications involving aluminium, wood, plastics, or composites.
In partnership with its modular flatbed cutters, Zund is exhibiting the automation and productivity features for application and production environment.
The automated production workflow also involves the job retrieval via QR-code. The integrated camera system captures the QR-code printed on each job, which enables Zund Cut Center (ZCC), to automatically retrieve the matching cut file. In addition, the ZCC system determines the exact location and orientation of the graphics.
Zund G3 3XL 1600, cutting system will also be in action for the visitors. This cutting configuration is suited for wide-format finishing of graphics on vinyl and other rolled materials up to 3.21 meter /10 feet wide.
