Die Cutting Benefits
Die Cutting | Precision Custom Shape Cutting
Die cutting uses custom steel dies to cut packaging into unique shapes, create windows, or add intricate design elements not possible with standard cutting.
Cut Without Limits
Die cutting uses custom steel cutting tools to cut paperboard into precise shapes beyond standard straight cuts. Windows, handles, decorative edges, interlocking tabs, and unique box shapes are all possible through die cutting technology.
Die Construction
Steel rule dies are custom-manufactured for each unique design. Sharp steel cutting rules are embedded in wood or acrylic bases, creating tools that precisely cut thousands of identical pieces.
Beyond Cutting
Die cutting operations include cutting, scoring (fold lines), perforating (tear lines), and creasing. A single die can incorporate all these operations for complete box blank production.
