Gerber Technology has announced that it has added its patented Pivex reciprocating cutting tool to its GERBERcutter Z1 to enhance its accuracy and efficiency on tough to cut and high value materials. Gerber delivers industry-leading software and automation solutions that help apparel and industrial customers improve their manufacturing and design processes.

Pivex is a patented, proven cutting technology available on several Gerber platforms including the Taurus and DCS line of cutters. By adding this cutting technology to the Z1, the unprecedented level of accuracy and cut quality Pivex brings is now available in a continuous cut conveyorised workflow for those cutting composites, technical textiles and other tough to cut or high value materials. The Pivex blade increases cut quality with the elimination of hangers, optimises cut paths for extremely intricate patterns and reduces waste by ridding material overcuts typically experienced with round wheel cutting, according to Gerber.

“By adding Pivex to the Z1 platform, we are taking a cutting tool that is unmatched in accuracy and combining it with a conveyorised continuous cutting platform to bring a new level of efficiency to manufacturers cutting complex materials. These two proven technologies, along with the Z1’s Industry 4.0 ability to seamlessly accept production data from Gerber’s AccuMark and AccuPlan software and remotely monitor equipment, help make our customer’s workflow fully integrated and dynamic,” Leonard Marano, vice president, product management & marketing, automation systems for Gerber Technology said.
