RMC Digital Print now runs two Zünd digital cutting systems
A second Zünd digital cutting table has been installed at RMC Digital Print, after the signage and exhibitions graphics specialist encountered a bottleneck in its workflow.
The Hull-based business installed a Durst printer in January 2017, doubling its flatbed printing capacity, and immediately found it required additional cutting capabilities to honour contracts and keep the print-room running 24/7. Its finishing department already ran a Zünd G3 3XL1600 and decided to invest in a second Zünd machine, a Zünd G3 XL3200.
‘We needed to act fast to deal with the bottleneck created by the new flatbed printer,’ explained Nicole Spencer, operations director at RMC Digital Print. ‘Zünd provided a really quick turnaround – about six weeks from ordering the G3 to its installation.’
Ms Spencer reports that the Zünd ‘cuts very precisely: when cutting hoarding or back walls for interiors, for example, being half a millimetre out can make a big difference.’
RMC Digital Print also upgraded its creasing tool to fold foam board or card material in on itself – a niche job for one of the company’s customers.
‘Having the second Zünd allows us to pre-press the job just once and we know it will be finished accurately,’ said Ms Spencer.
