Inspired by Kongsberg: Create a polished acrylic award with the Kongsberg X24

In this Inspired by Kongsberg video, our Application Specialist Frank Verlooy demonstrates how to create a nice and shiny award from 8 mm acrylic at the Kongsberg Customer Experience Center in Ghent, Belgium.Using the versatile Kongsberg X24 table with the MultiCUT-HP tool head, Frank shows how the award is engraved, cut and polished with precision. The project uses a dedicated engraving bit, an acrylic cutting bit and a diamond polishing bit to create clean text engraving, accurate cutting and polished edges.

To make sure the awards arrive in perfect shape, the project also includes a printed shipping box and a protective inlay made from sustainable paperboard honeycomb. The inlay is cut with an oscillating knife, while the box is produced using a 60 mm Crease Tool with a special profile and the dedicated CorruSpeed Tool for corrugated cardboard.All files are prepared in iPC software, helping the complete production process run smoothly from award creation to protective packaging.

Watch Frank bring this award project to life and see how the Kongsberg X24 can help turn creative ideas into polished results:
