Rotary Die Cutting
Rotary Die Cutting
Rotary die-cutting is the process of unrolling material through a press and utilizing a precision engraved steel cylinder die to roll over & cut specified shapes. Your material may be carried by a release liner and rolled onto a new core or sheeted into pads. Rotary dies can be made to cut all the way through your material and its release liner (metal to metal die-cut) or through the material and down to the release liner (butt or kiss-cut).

The spooler also is equipped with a die station, allowing us to provide extended tabs on double coated tapes.
