The kappa automatic features a user-friendly control panel with a simple, clearly laid-out menu system based on a Windows operating environment, making it intuitive and easy to operate for users of all skill levels. The machine control can be seamlessly connected to existing systems or networks, allowing for efficient data transfer and integration into broader production workflows.

To further enhance productivity and material efficiency, the kappa automatic can be equipped with ARDIS cutting optimisation software. This powerful software analyzes cutting jobs and automatically generates the most efficient cutting patterns to minimize material waste, reduce offcuts, and shorten processing times—making it especially valuable in high-throughput environments. Additionally, an optional label printer can be integrated to produce part-specific labels during processing, simplifying identification and organization for downstream operations like edgebanding, drilling, or assembly.

Vacuum pods and consoles are positioned visually, quickly and precisely with lightPos.

More than 6000 LEDs indicate the suction cup size, position, orientation as well as the console positions down to the millimetre. Thanks to a sophisticated colour management system, each vacuum type and its orientation is displayed in well-defined colours. RGB LEDs on the X-axis give information about the processing status. LEDs along the X- and Y-axis visualise the position and the dimension of the workpiece.

 With lightPos, workpiece positioning during alternating operation is carried out without expensive set-up times. That is comfort at its best.
