Zünd showcases cutting devices

Altstätten SG – Cutting systems manufacturer Zünd will be present at the JEC World trade fair in Paris this March, where it will showcase innovative developments in the field of digital cutting systems for composites.

Zünd cutting systems are used in the automotive and aerospace industries, as outlined in a press release by the manufacturer based in the St.GallenBodenseeArea. In addition to ensuring that composite materials can be cut accurately, the company’s devices are geared towards automated and digitalized production processes.

According to the press release, the secret to efficient digital manufacturing lies in an unobstructed flow of data. Zünd therefore provides the requisite software together with its devices. This optimizes the cut contours in fully automated fashion and coordinates the cut path for both material and tool. This ensures optimum material usage, which in the face of increasing material costs represents a basis for cost-effective cutting processes. Moreover, various materials such as carbon and glass fiber or even hard foamcore can all be cut to size using the same device.

Zünd will present its solutions at JEC World. The composites trade fair takes place March 12-14, 2019, in Paris.
