The intelligent knife developed and marketed by hagedorn has been well received by POLAR customers. The intelligent knife plays a fundamental role in holistic networking in downstream processing.

IntelliKnife is the first intelligent knife on the market. For the first time, it offers full transparency in the cutting process, and the precise evaluation of cutting data promises a large number of improvements to increase efficiency.

The use of intelligent knives brings numerous advantages for various user groups. For example, operating data can be used to identify potential for optimization, leading to cost benefits. In concrete terms, IntelliKnife can also improve knife service life and cutting accuracy.

According to hagedorn, since the introduction of IntelliKnife, a number of POLAR customers have already ordered the system and retrofitted existing machines with it. These include well-known both online and commercial printers.

"The high level of demand for means to increase the efficiency of printing and finishing operations stems from the need to obtain holistic transparency of operational data. With IntelliKnife, even POLAR E/ED generation machines can be lifted into the new technological era," says Hendrik Kneusels, Head of Sales and Service at POLAR.

IntelliKnife is developed and distributed by knife manufacturer hagedorn. POLAR was involved in the development and implementation as a technology partner.
