OUR CUTTING DIES & PROCESS

Rotary Cutting Dies

What is rotary die cutting? Rotary die cutting is a cylindrical fabrication process utilized for many different industries to efficiently cut, form, and shape or shear varying different materials. Rotary die cutting is suitable to cut and form materials such as paper, plastic, laminate, and metal products alike.

Rotary die cutting is appropriate for many industries and applications, including, but not limited to:

  • Medical products
  • Food and beverage packaging/labeling
  • Folding cartons
  • Consumer packaging, and more
 

Rotary die cutting is a highly versatile and customizable fabrication process that is highly versatile and customizable. It is fast, accurate, and can even produce highly complicated multi-layer parts because it is able to perform multiple functions in the same processing cycle.

Flat Cutting Dies

What is flatbed die cutting? This method of die cutting uses a flat fixed base and moveable head. The cutting die is designed from sharp strips of steel rule (which is a metal that is bent to match the profile of the part and embedded into slots in a plywood cutting board). Flatbed die cutting is commonly used as an alternative to rotary die cutting.

Flatbed die cutting is an effective fabrication method, however, it’s one main drawback is that it is overall slower than rotary die cutting. It is also more limited in producing various types of parts. You can use flatbed die cutting for the following projects:

  • Materials that are more than 1/8 inches thick
  • Products with multiple shapes
  • Large die cuts that can’t be done using other processes
  • Whenever there are concerns relating to budget; as an alternative to higher-cost processes

Die Cutting FAQs

Die cutting is a professional fabrication process using specialized industry-standard machines to convert stock material by cutting, forming, and shaping/shearing. It can also be used to form custom shapes and designs for labels. Commonly, die cutting comes in rotary and flatbed die cutting methods.

A die cutting system uses the process of die to cut sheets or rolls of materials such as paper, plastics, fiber, rubber, pressure-sensitive adhesives, and more. Die cutting can be done using either a flat bed or a rotary press. Applications for die cutting can include packaging and paper products, gaskets, abrasives, pressure sensitive adhesives, filters, medical disposables, and more.

There are two kinds of rotary dies. A flexible rotary die is crafted out of a thin sheet of metal that folds around a magnetic cylinder. A solid rotary die is made of a solid steel cylinder.

BOBST flat bed die cutters are currently the most extensive die cutter machines available in the market. They provide a wide variety of productivity and automation levels. BOBST die cutters can handle press widths ranging from 30″ to 82″.
