Shaping The Future Of Sign Making
A spotlight on Kongsberg C Series
In the ever-evolving sign and graphics industry, speed, precision, and adaptability are critical to success. As demand for high-quality, short-run production increases, sign makers are turning to finishing technology providers that offer highly productive and flexible solutions, such as Kongsberg C Series cutting solutions that combine innovative engineering with best-in-class build quality to offer unmatched throughput & versatility.
Whether producing intricate vinyl decals, rigid signage, or POS displays, Kongsberg C Series delivers on cutting speed, accuracy, durability, and material handling to meet the exact needs of modern sign makers.
Engineered for speed & precision
Kongsberg C Series is the first multifunction super-wide digital finisher to operate at a 100m/min cutting speed with up to 1.7G acceleration, maintaining top performance across the entire media surface. Its carbon composite traverse and aluminium composite tabletop, combined with a rack & pinion drive and dynamic table mapping, ensure maximum accuracy and consistency. Available in multiple sizes, from the compact C20 to the ultra-wide C64, the series suits a variety of production environments.
Built for versatility
From foamboard and acrylic to corrugated board and aluminium composite panels, Kongsberg C Series handles a broad range of signage materials. Its modular tool system which includes powerful milling units, allows fast tool changes and seamless transitions between jobs to maintain high productivity. “What sets the C Series apart is its ability to adapt,” says David Preskett, Vice President EMEA & APAC at Kongsberg Precision Cutting Systems (PCS). He adds, “It handles both rigid boards and flexible roll materials with minimal setup and maximum consistency.”
Automation & Workflow
With increasing demand for faster turnarounds, automated finishing is now essential. Kongsberg C Series integrates with roll/sheet feeders and robotic material handling. Combined with software like IPC 3.1, a cloud-enabled operating system designed to boost productivity through a simplified, more intuitive interface. With new ‘one-click’ features and automated set-up steps, IPC 3.1 reduces the training requirements for operators while enhancing the precision and capabilities of existing cutting tables.
With all these features, the Kongsberg C Series stands as a reliable, future-ready investment, delivering high-performance cutting without compromise.
Alongside the performance of the cutting table, sign makers can also benefit from working with valued partners, such as Kongsberg PCS, to access reliable long-term support and work with experts to identify ways in which they can maximise their productivity, utilise their skilled workforce and solve business problems.
“Our mission at Kongsberg PCS is to support sign makers in shaping their future, not just with our technology, but by being a reliable partner who understands our customers’ business needs and how they can overcome challenges,” asserts David.
