Die Cutting
Die cutting is a manufacturing process that uses specialized machines and sharp tools (called dies) to cut, shape, and form materials such as paper, fabric, rubber, and various composites.
Why Die Cutting?
- Precision and Efficiency: Allows for high precision and rapid production of identical shapes or parts.
- Mass Production: Ideal for high-volume production runs where consistent shapes are needed.
Die-Less Knife Cutting
Unlike die cutting, die-less knife cutting doesn’t use a physical die. Instead, it employs computer-controlled knives to cut through various materials.
Why Die-Less Knife Cutting?
- Complex Shapes: Suitable for intricate designs or irregularly shaped pieces where a physical die would be impractical.
- Prototyping and Short Runs: Effective for small-scale production or rapid prototyping.
Thermoforming
Thermoforming is a process where a plastic sheet is heated to a pliable forming temperature, shaped, and trimmed to create a final product.
Why Thermoforming?
- Cost-Effectiveness: Offers a cost-effective method for producing large, hollow products compared to injection molding.
- Custom Shapes: Allows for the creation of custom-shaped plastic components.
Custom Fabrication
Custom fabrication involves the creation of unique products or parts through various methods like cutting, bending, welding, and assembling raw materials.
Why Custom Fabrication?
- Bespoke Solutions: Tailored to specific customer requirements or projects.
- Prototyping and One-Offs: Ideal for creating custom or one-time pieces.
Skiving
Skiving is a process of thinning materials, often involving the removal of layers from a surface.
Why Skiving?
- Precision Thickness: Achieves precise thickness for materials like leather, foam, or rubber.
- Consistency: All layers have the same required thickness.
CNC Machining
CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machining involves using computer-controlled tools to remove material from a workpiece to achieve a desired shape or structure.
Why CNC Machining?
- High Precision: Offers exceptional accuracy and repeatability.
- Versatility: Can be used on a wide range of materials, including metals, plastics, and composites.
Water Jet Machining
Water jet machining uses a high-pressure stream of water (sometimes mixed with abrasive materials) to cut through various materials.
Why Water Jet Machining?
- No Heat-Affected Zone: Suitable for materials sensitive to high temperatures.
- Versatility: Works on a wide range of materials, including metals, glass, stone, and composites.
Plastic Welding
Plastic welding is a process that joins thermoplastic materials together using heat, pressure, or both.
Why Plastic Welding?
- Seamless Joints: Creates strong and durable connections between plastic parts.
- Repair and Fabrication: Used for both repairing existing plastic components and creating new ones.
