Matched Metal Dies
EPE builds a wide range of matched metal dies and die-cutting presses, all designed and customized to handle our customers’ most challenging precision fine blanking applications. Our matched metal dies or male/female dies produce the highest quality die cut components for simple shapes and complex geometries alike, and deliver exceptional cutting tolerance and clean, smooth edges.
Matched Metal Dies–high precision and durability
Matched metal die cutting is valued for its precision in applications where tight tolerances are vital. They’re an excellent choice for materials that are traditionally difficult to cut as well as for large production runs where consistency across product batches is a must.
We can design and build these die cutting stations for a wide range of thin substrates and other specialty film materials, as well as for a wide range of sizes and shapes–though die-cutting equipment for small, highly precise products are our specialty.
Typically, we design and build matched metal dies to cut thin substrates, such as:
- Nonwovens
- Carbon-Coated Electrodes
- Hydrogels
- Composites
- Oral Thin Films (OTFs)
- Films
- Polypropylene
- Polyester
- Polyethylene
- Polyolefin
- PET
- Nylon
- TYVEK®
- Foils
- Adhesive Coated Laminates
- Paper
- Rate Controlling Membranes
- Open and Closed Cell Foams
- Tapes
And this is just a small sample of the products that our equipment can make. If it’s a thin-film substrate, then we can build a die cutting press to shape it for you.
Typical applications our custom fine blanking equipment can serve
EPE’s die cutting presses can be found across the country, producing thin-film products for a wide range of industries, including pharmaceutical, medical product, consumer care, industrial, and electronics. Our equipment is built to last too–matched metal dies especially are valued for their durability and long lives, and we’ll be here not just to bring your designs or ideas to life, but also to help maintain them.
