The Feeder and Stacker removes the two biggest time-wasters in board production: waiting for an operator to load the next sheet, and manually sorting finished cuts.
The result is a cutter that never idles and a team that can focus on higher-value work.
The Feeder and Stacker sits in-line with your Kongsberg table, adding automation at both ends of the cut cycle.
Automatic board feeding eliminates idle time between sheets. The cutter never waits for an operator.
The full-coverage vacuum plenum plate removes manual adjustments across different sheet sizes - faster changeovers, less downtime.
Every finished board lands in the correct position, making downstream packing and assembly consistent and fast.
The vacuum feeder handles boards gently - no grippers or rollers that can mark print surfaces. Critical for display and packaging quality.
One operator can run multiple jobs simultaneously. The Feeder and Stacker handles repetitive loading and unloading so they don't have to.
Fewer moving parts than the previous generation means extended maintenance intervals and simpler servicing when needed.
Most digital finishing departments print-side-down - which means checking every sheet manually, calculating registration marks by hand, and cutting test sheets to verify alignment before a job can run.
The optional underside camera changes all of that. It scans each sheet from below at the exact moment it is being fed to the table, automatically identifying registration marks, barcodes and sheet corners - without stopping the feed cycle.
No manual measurements. No test cuts. No waiting.
"The underside camera alone will save us up to 30 minutes on each job."Gerald Maister, Vice President - Global Imaging
