Zünd at Texprocess <strong>2017</strong><br />
At Texprocess <strong>2017</strong> (Hall 4, Booth B40), Zünd demonstrates how manufacturers<br />
involved in textile processing can integrate a high-performance Zünd digital<br />
cutter and create a seamless end-to-end digital production workflow.<br />
In clothing and in home textiles, consumer demand<br />
for more customization and personalization is growing<br />
steadily. This trend is shining a spotlight on the<br />
need for efficient, cost-effective short-run or even<br />
one-off production, which is causing a major shift in<br />
the textile industry. Manufacturers are looking to convert<br />
more and more of their production to all-digital<br />
processes. At Texprocess, Zünd is presenting cutting<br />
solutions that allow for seamless integration in digital<br />
workflows. Zünd cutters are extremely flexible and<br />
designed to make cutting of textile materials efficient<br />
and economical. They give customers opportunities<br />
to create new business models through innovative<br />
digital cutting applications. Zünd has always<br />
put a great deal of emphasis on producing cutting<br />
and software solutions that are completely modular.<br />
Zünd’s user interface and workflow suite, Zünd Cut<br />
Center ZCC, is compatible with all commonly used<br />
RIPs. To make the cutting process as simple and efficient<br />
as possible, a camera-based registration system,<br />
in combination with ZCC, takes care of matching<br />
cut to print. Ensuring accurate registration even<br />
with highly stretchy fabrics, the system can be made<br />
to capture parts of the print instead of using traditional<br />
registration marks. Zünd digital cutting systems<br />
are highly modular. At Texprocess a Zünd S3 system<br />
illustrates how this modularity benefits the user. The<br />
modular design permits tailoring the cutting system<br />
to specific applications and cutting requirements,<br />
both in terms of tooling and material handling. This<br />
allows the user to adapt the system anytime to the<br />
exact requirements dictated by customer demand<br />
and the jobs at hand. With the D3 cutter, Zünd is also<br />
displaying the most productive cutting solution currently<br />
available. Equipped with dual beams, the system<br />
delivers unsurpassed productivity. Each beam<br />
operates independently and simultaneously, carrying<br />
up to three different modules/tools. Depending<br />
on the specifics of the job and cut file, this dual-beam<br />
capability results in up to twice the cutting<br />
speed and productivity. The precision of the direct<br />
drive in combination with state-of-the-art control<br />
software guarantees the system reliably produces<br />
with maximum efficiency. This gives the user the<br />
competitive edge that is indispensable in a market<br />
that demands ultimate performance and flexibility.<br />
In keeping with Zünd’s modular design concept, the<br />
D3 can always be adapted to meet new or different<br />
demands. New tools, modules, or automated<br />
systems for material loading & unloading are easy<br />
to integrate. The same principle applies to the new<br />
roll-feed system Zünd is introducing at Texprocess:<br />
the cradle feeder is the perfect solution for unwinding/rewinding<br />
stretchy fabrics completely without<br />
tension. An integrated edge-control system ensures<br />
perfectly reliable, precise feeding of the rolled material,<br />
even with rolls that have telescoped or are<br />
otherwise less than perfectly wound.
