ESKO Kongsberg cutting tables ideally versatile during and after lockdown

When the strict lockdown period declared globally between May to July end, there has been record of 30 percent upsurge in sales for its ESKO digital cutting tables. The driver for this finishing system has undoubtedly been the huge demand in social distancing signage for floors and walls. The sheer functionality of the digital cutters and their unique modular toolsets meant that many customers had the means to expand beyond their volume signage finishing to producing vital PPE equipment such as visors, facemasks, and aprons. Many customers all across the glove used the ESKO’s dedicated 1Kw router tool extensively to produce a variety of clear protection sneeze screens and countertop guards that you now see in shops.

During lockdown customers were using the conveyorised bed to automatically load substrates to minimise the amount of human contact between the operator, material, and final product. As ESKO tables are modular and come with the Multi-Cut Tool Head as standard, customers can buy extra tools when required and can adapt very quickly from what would be a traditional market into doing something far more specialised. ESKO cutting tables have allowed many print shops the ability to provide new applications that only four months ago would not have been imaginable.
