Zünd Announces Installation Of Digital Cutting Solution

Modular vehicle branding specialist Brandfixx needed a digital cutting solution that could deliver +/- 0.1mm accuracy and exceptional cut quality. Having used Zünd cutters at their sister company, Brandfixx knew the Swiss cutting solution would be the perfect investment to get the job done. They purchased a Zünd G3 L-2500 for their new production facility in Hull.

Launched in 2020, Brandfixx have created a pioneering modular vehicle branding system, designed to be simpler, more versatile and less expensive than traditional vehicle wraps. Being the first system of its kind, it has completely revolutionised the vehicle branding industry.

Greg Saunderson, Managing Director at Brandfixx said, ‘Our new solution has been developed to be a quicker and more cost-effective solution for vehicle branding. Brandfixx simplifies the design, production, and application process. Resulting in substantial cost savings against traditional methods and considerably less downtime per vehicle. Being completely modular, it also makes it easier to replace or repair vehicle branding.’

Brandfixx also offers a substantially lower carbon impact versus painting or traditional vinyl wrapping methods. Saunderson explained, ‘With our kits being 100% modular, we’re able to nest the panels on the vinyl roll minimising waste and reducing ink. The quicker installation times also means lower electricity demands and reduced need for multiple fitters. Every step of our process is designed to be as efficient as possible.’

The company uses cutting edge 3D scanning technology, which they then create a modular kit that perfectly fits every panel of a vehicle. Saunderson explained, ‘We strive for perfection and to achieve that requires continuous investment in the best technology.’

Saunderson said, ‘Zünd cutters are an excellent choice for us because they take great pride in quality and efficiency. We opted for a Zünd G3 L-2500 equipped with Leibinger part-marking solution.’

Since the installation of their new Zünd cutter, Brandfixx has seen impressive improvements. Saunderson explained, ‘Our material wastage has reduced by 50% on jobs, which in return reduces our customers’ carbon footprint. The Zünd software also gives us great insight into our cutter’s productivity and allows us to create efficient KPI’s for the business.’

‘Furthermore, the addition of the Leibinger to our new Zünd cutter has significantly improved our workflow process and turnaround time on installation jobs. Typically, each vehicle we work on will be fitted with 80 modular pieces and having the part-marking ability from our Leibinger has reduced installation time significantly. Fitters can easily associate each piece to the relevant part of the vehicle, increasing productivity by 100%. This is great because we can now pass these savings to our customers.’
