How to add a Zünd cutter to CalderaRIP?

Follow the steps below to guide you through the installation of your Zünd cutter (and its respective ZCC controller) with CalderaRIP.

  Good to know

Zünd Cut Center (ZCC) is a software developed by the company of the same name to manage, control, and monitor its cutting systems and media loading. It integrates smoothly with CalderaRIP cutting workflows using a GrandCut license.

 

  1. Open CalderaRIP.

  2. Drag and drop an image on the Print Module of one of your printers.

  3. Double-click on your printer’s Page Setup icon:


  4. Go to the Cutting tab:


  5. Check the option "Enable cutting contour" and then click on the add button ( ). A pop-up will appear:


  6. Now, click on New… to add your cutter.

    Name This is how the cutter will appear in the cutter list.
    Model Select any of the Zünd Cut Center drivers.

      Info

    Since CalderaRIP V8, the software is compatible with several Zünd cutters (and their respective ZCC controller).

    • For users of ZCC 2 (or before): You should use the driver called "Zünd Cut Center". You could also use a more advanced driver, like ZCC3, but you would have the limitation of not being able to use the alignment method (BestFit).
    • For users of ZCC 3 (or later): CalderaRIP has specific drivers at your disposal.

    Do not hesitate to visit our supported devices site regularly.

    Queue Choose a directory where your cutting files will be saved.
    Hostname Enter the IP address or the hostname of your Zünd Cut Center workstation.

     Caution

    Make sure that port 51000 is used in the Zünd Cut Center.

  8. Click on OK. You will see the new cutter on the list. Select it and click OK again.

  9. Your Zünd cutter is now installed. To configure it, please refer to the article:
