Gerber to showcase Paragon at IFAI
Gerber Technology’s new Paragon cutting system will make its debut in the Americas on October 23-25 at the IFAI Specialty Fabrics Expo in Orlando, Florida. Paragon enables manufacturers using industrial fabrics to produce high-quality cut parts with very limited training.
Steve Park, vice president and general manager of Gerber’s sewn goods business, said: “Paragon is so easy to use. It produces accurately cut parts the first time, every time. It also generates single-click reports that help managers continuously analyse and improve their cutting workflow. We’re confident that our customers will realise an exceptional return on investment with this system.”
Paragon’s sensing technologies constantly monitor operation and can automatically adjust and provide wizard-based feedback to operators to improve throughput and quality.
With its Ever Sharp technology, users can replace knife-sharpening stones in seconds and get up to three times more usable life than with traditional stones. Furthermore, its high-efficiency design is said to reduce energy costs by up to 20%.
