Unicon – Case Study
Machine Purchased:
CB08II Digital Cutting Table
Business Type:
Foam Conversion – Custom Packaging Inserts
The Challenge:
Unicon Ltd needed a more agile way to handle smaller volume orders and one-off packaging samples. Relying on traditional wood form tooling was not only costly but also inflexible, especially when designs were still in development and subject to change. The business needed a faster, more adaptable solution with tighter control over quality.
The Solution:
By investing in a CB08II Digital Cutting Table from Mantech, Unicon unlocked the ability to produce bespoke packaging inserts quickly and efficiently. The digital workflow eliminated the need for upfront tooling costs and allowed for rapid prototyping, giving them an edge in both speed and customer service.
The Result:
With the new digital cutting table in place, Unicon has significantly improved turnaround times for low-volume orders, expanded its offering to include one-off samples, and gained better control over finished quality. This has not only enhanced customer satisfaction but also helped win new business.
The machine has given us faster turnaround for smaller volume orders and allowed us to provide one-off samples without committing to tooling costs during early design stages. We also now have more control over the quality of the finished product.
