Oc and Znd pair up for open days

Oc has teamed up for with flatbed cutter manufacturer Znd for a series of open days to demonstrate how combining the kit can create an automated workflow that cuts both waste and labour.

The event, which will take place on 5-7 February 2008 in St Albans, Hertfordshire, is targeted at display graphics printers and will showcase Océ's Arizona 250GT UV curable flatbed printer, the Océ CS9060 eco-solvent printer and a plethora of Zünd's cutting machinery.

Dominic Fahy, display graphics and imaging supplies business group manager at Océ UK, said demand for productive direct-to-substrate printing was "rapidly growing".

He added that a "bottleneck" exists within most graphic production finishing operations and the technology from Océ and Zünd "complement" each other and add "real value to our customers' businesses".

Peter Giddings, sales director at Zünd, said the companies would "demonstrate how digital printers and digital cutters can work side-by-side to deliver a cost-effective display graphics solution".
