Flat Knife Die-cutting Vs Round Knife Die-cutting, Which One Will You Choose?

How Can We Choose the Most Suitable Die-cutting Method?

1. Consider from the perspective of equalization of costs

There are many enterprises from the psychological think round knife die-cutting knife cost is too high, so the preference for flat knife die-cutting way, in fact, can not be generalized, or to talk about an average cost. Because the knife plate life of circular knife die-cutting is much higher than the knife plate life of flat knife die-cutting, so we still need to do the knife cost divided by the number of theoretical prints, calculate the cost of each print, this cost is the true cost of die-cutting knife plate.

2. From the perspective of productivity

In our daily production we may often encounter some urgent delivery dates, or orders with a large volume, then the production efficiency is very critical. In principle, which of the two die-cutting methods is more efficient, which will be used. The efficiency referred to here refers to the overall efficiency. In general, the flat knife to do the knife cycle is shorter, but the production speed is lower; round knife to do the knife cycle is longer, but the production speed is higher. The specific choice of which die-cutting method, production managers need to make a comprehensive assessment of the situation at the time.

3. Consider from the perspective of product die-cutting quality

Compared to flat knife die-cutting, round knife die-cutting die-cutting stability is much higher, for products with high die-cutting quality requirements, it is recommended to try to choose round knife die-cutting. If for the cost principle must choose flat knife die-cutting, then you need to pay special attention to random adjustment to control the quality of die-cutting.

Above, I introduced the flat knife die-cutting and circular knife die-cutting two ways of their respective advantages and disadvantages, on how to choose the right die-cutting method also gives certain recommendations, I hope to help enterprises. At present, the overall level of China's label industry with the market demand and technological advances in the gradual improvement, process updates iterations more and more quickly, if you want to improve the value-added products can not only do some low-end products, so the label printing process to improve the strong demand for more and more printing enterprises. In this background of the times, with the combination of the process of die-cutting equipment came into being. Combination die-cutting equipment can be based on the different needs of customers, the flat knife die-cutting, circular knife die-cutting, flexo printing, cold foil stamping, printing code and other processes together, so that a device to achieve multiple post-printing process at the same time, not only to improve production efficiency, but also to enhance the added value of the product. At present, there are many equipment manufacturers have launched a combination of die-cutting equipment, the future with the maturity of technology and market demand for diversification will have more and better combination of die-cutting equipment to go to market, to provide label printing enterprises can "fight the good fight" equipment.
