Die Cutting
Razor sharp, steel cutting knifes are mounted into special wood bases to form the die cutting dies. Intricate shapes and detail are possible buy creating an exact template from the electronic artwork provided. Laser knife technology is used to scribe the shape into the wood base, creating a gutter to accept the knife. The die can also incorporate scoring rules, perforations and special knives, depending on the need and material to be cut. These dies can generally be reused—we have dies dating back to the 1980′s, which have been used year-after-year.
