POLAR P-Net

P-Net, the network concept by POLAR

P-Net makes it possible to integrate individual POLAR components or POLAR cutting systems into the digital workflow through P-Net Connect. Additional functions can be added using so-called “services”. Two examples:

Compucut: with  more than 25 years of experience, we provide a benchmark for reducing makeready times. The cutting program can be easily generated outside the high-speed cutter because the sheet layout (CIP4 / JDF) is either taken over directly from prepress or the sheet is recorded manually. This means that the machine’s set-up time is reduced to almost zero. With uniform sheets it is even possible to automate the generation of the cutting program.

Remote Diagnosis: the availability of production resources is becoming an increasingly decisive factor. As a bidirectional Web-Gateway, Remote Diagnosis provides the online connection between the POLAR components and customer service. This means downtime is shortened because service assignments can be planned. The machine data can be regularly checked as a preventive measure against, or to eliminate, unexpected downtime. Furthermore, the operator has access to direct help for any questions regarding handling or programming.
