Flat bed die cutting

Medical die cutting of all types of self-adhesive and non-adhesive products used in numerous medical device applications is a major part of PolarSeal®’s production. To produce a die-cut, certain parameters need to be assessed such as material type, tolerance, volume, and final presentation required. Once these have been assessed and the feasibility of producing the required die-cut ascertained, the machine and tool type is then selected. There are four main tooling options: steel rule, two-part die set, rotary die, or rotary flexi-die with cutting tolerance down to ±0.003mm achievable, subject to the type of material being cut. Presentation is a very important item to be addressed as the correct presentation relative to the product and your manufacturing methods will result in cost-effective, time-saving processes. With over 30 years of experience, PolarSeal® will guide you in the choice of individual pieces, roll form, dry edge, split liner, sprocket holed, or other configuration for an efficient engineered part.
