How to choose a die plate according to the characteristics of the product

In die-cutting industry, die is an essential tool. A die consists of a die-cutting plate and a blade. They are generally used for stamping the desired product shape. There are many kinds of blades used in the die! Today we share with you: how to choose a die according to the characteristics of the product. To sum up, the die should be selected from three aspects of the product, in order: product precision, product output, and product material!

 

Product precision

The error of the mold itself is between plus or minus 0.05~0.2MM!

1. if the product precision is within plus or minus 0.05, three kinds of paint molds can be used: corrosion molds, engraving molds, hardware molds.

2. If the product accuracy is within plus or minus 0.1, please use two kinds of molds: wood mold and plastic mold (of course, the other three are also available, but the cost is higher).

If you can't relax the product tolerance, then don't try to use low-cost molds!

Product yield

Need to choose according to the life of the mold! If the product batch is large, easy to stamping products try to use wood and plastic mold; If the product precision is high, easy to stamping, try to use corrosion mold; If the product precision is high, can not be scrapped at once, available carving mold or metal mold production. For achieving comprehensive scrapping (because it can be modeled according to the angle you imagine).

 

If the product is complex, QDC mold can be made for multiple processes, positioning holes are convenient, and the product size accuracy can be guaranteed within plus or minus 5 silk.

 

Product material material

1. Ordinary cardboard ordinary cardboard including ordinary cardboard, corrugated paper, etc., die-cutting this kind of cardboard can use ordinary laser die (knife angle 52 °). If the die-cutting shape is complex, it is necessary to use a slightly lower blade hardness, bending performance of the die. In the die-cutting process, if you require a low die-cutting pressure, you can choose a die with a knife edge angle of 42o. Low die cutting pressure can reduce edge wear and extend the die cutting life.

 

2. Hard rubber sheet hard rubber sheet including PVC, PET, electronic board, high-density materials, gaskets, etc.. Die-cutting such materials need to have a high hardness of the die. Ordinary laser knife body hardness of 39HRC, blade hardness of 57HRC. If you want to die cutting hard rubber, you need to choose the blade hardness of 47HRC, blade hardness of 59HRC die. The smaller the blade angle, the higher the blade hardness, the better the wear resistance.

 

3. Flexible materials flexible materials including aluminum foil, web materials, soft plastics, etc.. Die cutting such materials requires the use of dies with finely ground edges. This kind of die edge surface is smooth, die cutting pressure requirement is low, easy to pass sticky materials, reduce the edge pulling and linting problems.

Solving the die-cutting dilemma for large packaging needs

When producing packaging materials, a common process used by the industry is die cutting. Die cutting is a process where low strength materials (such as paper, corrugated fiberboard, cardboard, fiber, foil, plastic, etc.) are cut through a die. What makes the die an integral part of the process is its ability to cut pieces with a specified shape. The consistency and accuracy of the die and die cutting process itself allows industries and their respective businesses to maximize aesthetically pleasing and unique packaging products. They can even obtain products with different shapes and profiles and multiple layers of complex cuts. In addition, they can get the packaging materials they need in a very short period of time, as the die-cutting process can produce large quantities of these materials at once. With these benefits, companies that perform  die-cutting processes  can certainly help companies get the packaging materials they need. If you are looking to source a large amount of pac

The 5 most popular die-cutting machines

What is die-cutting? Die cutting  is a mass manufacturing process where shapes are cut by shearing raw materials such as paper and chipboard using a die, a specially made tool used to cut or shape materials. The die has sharp edges to pierce the material; and has the two-dimensional shape of a finished part. The die-cutting process works on the same principle as a cookie cutter that cuts dough into smaller sizes. Materials that can be die cut include paper, fabric, rubber, fiberglass, sheet metal, foam, wood, and plastic. MYQ1060 Automatic die cutting creasing machine with stripper   What is the purpose of a die cutter? Although die cutters vary (you will need to read the machine specifications before purchasing), all die cutters will cut paper. Most can cut felt, foam, thin fabrics and vinyl, although it is important to note that only steel rule dies can cut chipboard. Some can even cut corkboard, leather, rubber, and sponge! Die cutters can be used to make stickers, envelopes, stand

How are cutting dies made?

The development of cutting die technology and manufacturing techniques ensures the most efficient and accurate   die-cut box design . Typically, the package outline is generated by Computer-Aided Design (CAD). This digital drawing is transferred to a piece of hardwood called a template.  The most sophisticated method of drawing the design on the template is to burn it on the wood surface using a state-of-the-art laser cutter.  The introduction of the laser in this process ensures greater accuracy in drawing on the moldboard.  Cutting dies are made using metal strips called rule or steel rule. The cutting rule is shaped into shape using a rule bender, which bends, cuts and grooves the steel into the desired shape.   Multiple cutting rules can be used in the die cutting process. Each rule has its own function and purpose, depending on the complexity of the package.  Some of the most common rule options are. ● Through-cutting: Through-cutting cuts the packaging material. ● Scores: Instead
