High-speed precision die cutting involves feeding a sheet or roll of material into a press where it is cut into shapes of a predetermined size. It is a fast, cost-effective way to produce a high volume of parts or products out of plastic, metal and other materials.
High-speed die cutting requires a special press that processes parts at a faster rate than conventional machinery. The benefits of this are obvious: Large projects can be turned around faster while maintaining accuracy and tight machining tolerances.
High-speed precision die cutting can accommodate parts of varying degrees of intricacy. Depending on your requirements, the process can employ a rotary, steel mill, matched metal or solid milled die. Progressive die cutting and in-line laminating or slitting are possible, allowing you to create more complex parts in a single pass.
Precision cutting is not necessarily always the most cost-effective choice for every business, but for the right applications, it can dramatically streamline your operation. If you have a variety of complex parts with tight tolerances that you need fast and in a high volume, precision die cutting is almost certainly the way to go.
If you have been manufacturing these products using another method, switching to precision die cutting should allow you to assemble your products and get them out much faster, leading to higher returns and less of a challenge to fill orders on time.
The main drawback to high-speed precision die cutting is the added expense. The process requires special machinery with higher purchase and maintenance costs that are passed on to manufacturers. Beyond that, however, set-up and tooling fees are comparable to those for conventional die cutting. Ultimately, your budget and your timeline will determine whether or not the use of high-speed equipment is the right choice for an upcoming project.
