Die Cutting 

The process of die cutting is much like making cookies using cookie cutters. The material, either in sheet or strip form, is fed into or through a machine where the die or dies are then lowered using force to cut the part's shape. Steel rule dies are the customized tooling used for die cutting rubber. They are razor sharp and are built to last the toughest production requirements.

A die, in simplest terms, is a set of steel blades forming the shape of your cut. The die cutting process starts with the creation of the die. Simple shapes like circles and squares are easy, but if your design needs a unique shape then a new die must be made, which can be costly – since our vendors may not have these unique shapes already in stock. Once the die is ready, it’s positioned on a wood block and installed into the press. The tech will measure out the placement of paper underneath the die and cut a few trial sheets to make sure the shape looks as it is supposed to and that there are no issues with the die. The die is then pressed into the material with heavy pressure making the cut.
