Florida-based Graphic Images Inc. has invested in a Kongsberg C64 digital finishing table with feeder and stacker.
Graphic Images’ new feeder and stacker, which supports larger sheet sizes, greater stack height and complete Stacker plenum coverage, will be outfitted with the innovative Kongsberg underside camera system, while the Kongsberg C64 will be complemented by the VibraCut tool, which allows cutting at full machine speed through single and double wall corrugated board and other materials such as corrugated board, soft foam board and corrugated plastic.
The addition of the Kongsberg Dual Heavy-Duty Unit will enable the operators to run corrugated jobs with cutting, creasing and perforation without changing tools, making production up to 70% faster.
The feeder and stacker was demonstrated on Kongsberg Precision Cutting Systems’ booth at the SuperCorrExpo event in Orlando, Florida. ‘The on-booth demonstration highlighted the system’s ability to operate fully unmanned,’ said Heather Roden, North America Sales Director with Kongsberg PCS. ‘We demonstrated how the underside camera system reads QR codes and registration marks to ensure accuracy while dynamically moving from job to job on the Kongsberg C64 finishing table.’
‘We were impressed with the Kongsberg’s build quality and performance, and the enormous efficiency gains the Feeder and Stacker will deliver were obvious to see in the demonstration,’ said Ryan Goudreau, General Manager of Graphic Images Inc.
‘As specialists in custom wide format signs, displays and custom packaging, the new Kongsberg digital finishing system will enable us to deliver against our customers’ creative design concepts without compromising on quality, which is the cornerstone of our offering,’ he said. ‘We’re looking forward to this new installation complementing our existing systems and to taking advantage of the efficiency, productivity and creative freedom it delivers.’
