The Highcon Beam 2 is a die cutter — sometimes referred to as a cutting and creasing machine — designed to cut, crease, and shape sheet materials into precise forms, a process central to packaging production and converting operations. Highcon is a specialist manufacturer of digital cutting and creasing equipment serving the packaging and print finishing industries, known for applying laser-based technology to tasks traditionally handled by mechanical tooling.
This particular machine is a flatbed laser digital cutting and creasing unit, built in 2020 and located in Zaandam, Netherlands. It accepts sheets up to 76 × 106 cm and operates at a maximum speed of 5,000 sheets per hour. The machine is configured for corrugated board, specifically handling F and E flutes up to 2 mm in board thickness. At the time of listing it has accumulated approximately 2 million impressions.
The combination of laser-based processing with flatbed sheet handling makes this machine well suited to short-run and digitally printed packaging work, where conventional die tooling would be impractical or uneconomical. Its corrugated capability, covering the finer flute profiles commonly used in retail-ready and premium packaging, broadens its application range within the folding carton and corrugated converting sectors. The machine is offered in used condition.
