Die cutting transforms flat printed paperboard sheets into intricate three-dimensional carton blanks. Utilizing custom-built laser-cut steel rule dies and micro-calibrated creasing channels, SHMI auto-platen die cutters exert hundreds of tons of balanced mechanical pressure to cut, score, perforate, and emboss sheets in a single synchronized stroke.
Precision creasing matrices ensure clean, crack-free folding along both paper grain and cross-grain axes. Integrated dynamic stripping stations automatically eject internal waste cut-outs and edge trim, producing clean, dust-free carton blanks optimized for jam-free feeding in high-speed customer packaging lines.
