Digital cutting solutions for transportation – precise, reliable, and repeatable for high-performance materials

Zünd offers high-precision cutting systems tailored to meet individual requirements – with application-specific modules for composites, technical foams, and specialty materials. Small batches, custom solutions, or industrial-scale production: Zünd cuts safety-related components in a reproducible, efficient, and cost-effective manner.

Safety-critical applications leave no room for error. Zünd cutters deliver high-precision cutting for multi-layer laminates, honeycomb structures, and textiles that are hard to process. Designed for production environments that demand absolute process control, with documented results, automated data processing, and seamless integration into industrial production lines.

• Reliable cutting of composites, even with abrasive materials
• Automated processes for one-off parts as well as volume production
• Reproducible quality that meets tight tolerances
• Workflows that integrate seamlessly with CAD and ERP systems
• Less waste with software-assisted material optimization

Maximize your efficiency, reduce production costs, and gain ultimate flexibility with Zünd Zünd digital cutting solutions.

“We get to draw on 15 years of experience with Zünd digital cutting technology, which is significant. Zünd provides open, modular solutions with optional service agreements and extremely reliable software - without short-lived updates. Exactly what we understand by real customer value.”

Patrick Rohrer, Project Manager Plant Procurement, Pilatus Switzerland

“The carbon-fiber layer consists of various sections whose fiber orientation must be precisely aligned with one other. Cutting these parts manually, with the correct fiber orientation and optimum material utilization, would be impossible. The Zünd cutter allows us to prepare prepreg part kits much faster.”

Tiziano Pegorin, Head of Competence Center for Manufacturing of Space Infrastructures and Modules, Thales Alenia Space, Italy
