Kongsberg Precision Cutting Systems (Kongsberg PCS) will showcase a range of its latest digital finishing innovations at Fespa in Amsterdam next week.

From 12 to 15 October at the RAI exhibition centre, the manufacturer will display its May-launched compact C20 high-speed production table together with the VariAngle Tool, which is said to enable cutting at any angle between 0 and 60 degrees at high speeds.

The company’s booth will also feature its C64 digital finishing table together with Motorised Roll Feeder. This combination is said to simplify the continuous production of high volumes of wide-format soft signage and textiles jobs.

“We’re all hugely excited to be making our debut at Fespa, marking our first time at the event since becoming a standalone company earlier this year,” said Wim Brunsting, Kongsberg PCS sales director for Europe and the Middle East (EMEA).

“We will be demonstrating our latest digital finishing innovations and are looking forward to giving visitors the opportunity to get a close-up look at our advanced Kongsberg solutions as well as discussing our vision for the future.”

He added: “While the new Kongsberg C20 is the smallest in the Kongsberg C Series range, visitors will be able to see first-hand how it packs all the professional features of its bigger counterparts into a compact size of just 1.6x1.4m.

“Both industrial and small sign shops require a high-speed cutting table to keep up with the manufacturing process but floorspace comes at a premium, with the high costs of owning or renting space a serious problem for many in the sign and display market.

“With the new Kongsberg C20, there is no longer any need for those businesses to compromise on production and quality due to a lack of available floorspace.

“With the VariAngle Tool fitted to the C20, historic constraints for designers are removed, giving them total freedom in the creativity of their 3D displays.

“Not only does this maximise customer satisfaction but it also helps to increase efficiency and productivity. The Kongsberg VariAngle completely removes the need to stop production when changing tools, drastically reducing setup times and increasing cutting speed.”

In August Kongsberg PCS acquired MultiCam, a US manufacturer and distributor of CNC cutting machines and digital finishing processes.
