Zünd unveils an innovative loading system with integrated registration

Zünd is launching an innovative loading system involving a table extension and integrated registration system. This solution enables simultaneous loading, job identification and registration of various material types and formats – all carried out swiftly, precisely, and reliably – while the production process is ongoing.

The new board-loading extension with UNDERCAM brings together two core functions: convenient loading of the cutter with a static loading table, plus optional fold-up loading extension, and a precise capture system that registers printed board and sheeted substrates from below. This combination ensures maximum efficiency and flexibility when cutting all kinds of materials.
The concurrent approach lets the cutter work at optimum capacity and reduces manual efforts to roughly 15 seconds per board, allowing the operator to focus on other tasks. The cutting process continues automatically as soon as the next board is in place and confirmed. With one-shot capture, the process is much quicker than with conventional registration methods using the ICC camera integrated in the cutter’s tool carriage.
The board-loading extension with UNDERCAM is equipped with its own lighting system and shields the area from ambient light that could interfere with the optical registration process. This ensures any printed images and material edges are captured precisely and reliably.
Pressure plates press down on the board to make sure it lies flat on the capture surface. As a result, printed graphics can be registered with the utmost reliability on various kinds of materials, including corrugated cardboard.
Another great feature of this new solution is QR code-based production, which enables job files to be retrieved automatically. As a result, various jobs of different material types and formats can be processed in mixed stacks—a boon for companies looking for maximum cutting flexibility.
The board-loading extension with UNDERCAM is compatible with the Zünd G3 and D3 cutter lines and is available in four different widths. It seamlessly combines manual and automated processes: the operator accesses the job in ZCC, places the material into the registration position, and confirms this by pressing a hand or foot switch. The material is then fed automatically into the working area, and the cutting process begins (or continues).
This new solution from Zünd gives companies an efficient, reliable way to further optimize and automate their production processes while also enhancing their cutting precision.
