There are
several types of die-cutting processes like flatbed dies, laser, and rotary
die. The flatbed die cutting used a flatbed die and press. The laser uses a
high-speed laser cutting machine. The rotary die cutting uses a cylindrical
rotary die and a rotary press. The requirements by a die cutting application
decided the type of die-cutting process to be used.
Rotary die-cutting is a procedure that involves the cutting and perforating of a
flexible material to achieve the desired shape. This is generally done by using
a rotary press. A rotary die cutting is often used when there is a high-volume
project that needs a consistent cut. Some smaller sized products also need this
process. When cutting products from the web is needed, then also rotary cutting
is preferred.
Rotary
die-cutting is a process that produces far less waste than the other methods.
It is also a low-tolerant method that leads to precision cutting. It can be
done quickly, and it finds its application in many multiple process projects
too. The rotary die cutting can be combined with printing, embossing,
laminating, etc. The die-cutting method depends on the things like which
material needs to be converted, the number of pieces needs to be converted, and
the tolerances.
Rotary die
cutting machine ensures consistent precision and very high speed converting of
the materials. Rotary die presses can perform a die-cut or a kiss cut. The web
width of the rotary die press decides the width of the material. It also
impacts the size of the rolls. The fabrication process and the rotary die
cutting involve detailed preparation and engineering.
There can be
many materials used in this process. Depending on the application of the rotary
die-cutting services, a wide variety of materials are used, such as felt,
fabrics, fiber, paper, plastics, rubber, foams, composites, metals and alloys,
EMI/RFI shielded foils, laminates, electrical insulating materials, etc.
The rotary die
cutting services may also include design assistance, short-run production, high
volume production, and quality control. The skilled staff is adept with
knowledge and expertise to assist the clients with the conceptual
understanding, practical demonstrations, evaluating the costs, briefing the
manufacturing techniques, perform material considerations. They always ensure
to provide high-quality rotary die-cutting services.
A rotary die cutting machine
is a machine is designed in such a way that it can cut materials such as paper,
fabric, metal, etc. in different shapes flawlessly. There are many industrial
and commercial cutting machines in the field of manufacturing. There are also
smaller, and personal rotary die-cutting machines used by crafters. These
personal die-cutting machines are used for a variety of projects like
scrapbooking, t-shirts, card making, quilts, and party decorations.
