Workflow automation is essential for standardised, economical production in textiles and garment manufacturing. At Texprocess in Frankfurt from June 21-24, Zünd, of Altstätten, Switzerland, will present software tools for every phase of textile processing centred around its high-performance digital cutting systems geared towards maximum efficiency.

There are many ways to optimise production and make it more efficient and profitable. Zünd, offers a variety of automation solutions designed specifically for digital textile cutting, many of which it will be presenting at Booth C57 in Hall 8 in Frankfurt. These solutions help automate and standardise print and cut-file preparation and also support production monitoring and analysis, control the cutting process and facilitate the removal of cut parts, as well as logistics.

Intelligently automated production offers enormous opportunity for savings and helps eliminate potential sources of error. Zünd’s MindCut Studio modular workflow suite contains all essential functions for every phase of textile production and garment manufacturing. It can reliably detect patterns, compensate for material distortions and nest parts for maximum material yield. In addition, the software also offers flexible options for pattern matching, no matter whether the fabric is striped, checked, or digitally printed.

For efficient removal, cut parts must be quickly and clearly identifiable. Projected colour coding and parts information are a great way to help the operator identify and sort cut parts. With projection and monitor displays serving as visual aids, the parts removal process becomes easy, quick and reliable.

Zünd combines digital cutting technology with state-of-the-art tooling and intelligent optical systems into complete, high-performance turnkey systems. The user retains maximum flexibility in terms of suitable cutting workflows, choice of materials and short delivery times.

Zünd cutting systems are an integral part of a complete digital production workflow that allows garment and upholstery manufacturers to automate their production processes and simultaneously optimise the data flow. This results in significantly greater throughput, reduced error rates and production costs, which in turn enables much greater competitiveness. Visitors to the Frankfurt show will be able to experience the Zünd dual-beam D3 cutter which offers industry-leading performance and productivity. Two independently operating beams can each accommodate up to three different tool modules and enable significant increases in throughput. The system optimally distributes jobs across the two beams for maximum productivity.
