Zünd has won the 2023 Red Dot Award for Product Design for its Q 32-32 D cutter, the flagship product in its newly launched Q-Line. The internationally renowned prize recognizes superb quality and is exclusively awarded to products that feature outstanding design.
Launched in April 2023, the Zünd cutter Q 32-32 D has taken performance in digital cutting to new highs. Retractable safety glass panels and integrated light barriers ensure maximum safety when the two beams are accelerating at up to 2g. At such production speeds, the solid mineral-cast base ensures stability and affords the utmost precision when cutting, along with the necessary mass to counteract vibrations. The beams are made of carbon fiber-reinforced composite, which makes them very light and strong and gives them a sophisticated, high-end look.
The 43 independent jurors of the Red Dot Design Award individually assessed the product under criteria such as the degree of innovation, ergonomic comfort, product silhouette, symbolic and emotional value, quality consciousness and the environmental credentials of a product.
The new Q-Line generation of cutters is the result of a completely new design concept based on a distinctive style. The precisely dimensioned tools, slightly inclined towards each other, define the shape and create a balanced look. Side casings frame the high-performance machinery. Advanced technology such as the fully automatic tool changer sets it apart and is integral components that add to the cutter’s dynamic appearance. The controls and the new control panel are ingeniously configured, ergonomic and visually appealing. This combination of design and technology makes the machine the perfect solution for highly automated and efficient digital cutting for industrial applications.
