Following investment in a 3.2m-wide dye-sublimation printer for banner and textile printing, Swanley-based Keyboard Group has this month installed a Zund G3 3XL3200 with 3.6kw router (RM-L) and Automatic Router Changer (ARC). MD Grant Mahoney said he expects it to “halve labour costs; where we had two people working on fabric finishing, now we only need one."
Mahoney added: "Our team saw the Zund G3 in the showroom in St Albans with all the different options, and chose them to suit. We took a diamond-tipped bit for polishing acrylics, a V-cutting blade for thick cardboard and Re-board, an oscillating tool, the 3.6kw router and the Automatic Router Changer. It's just been installed but I foresee the G3 spending one or more full days routing wood, followed by a day cutting Foamex, followed by another two or three on fabric in any given week. We're a full production house, producing everything from a single small poster to a run of 100 banners, and the Zund will be used across all departments.”
The Keyboard Group provides both stand manufacturing services to exhibition organisers and design agencies in the experiential marketplace, and display print.
