DIE CUTTING

Quick, low-cost cutting • Precision Shapes • Very Clean Cut

felt • rubber • leather • cardboard • paper • thin wood • thin plastic

APPLICATIONSDie cutting is the fastest, most economical, and cleanest way to cut large quantities of smaller parts. A custom die must be produced for each shape or pattern.

MATERIALSDie cutting works best on pliable materials such as felt, rubber, leather, cardboard, or paper. Rigid materials like wood or plastic can be die cut if material thickness is less than 0.060”.

Each die-cut shape requires a custom cutting die or blade. Dies usually cost $50 to $500, depending on size and complexity, and take about a week to make. Please note that we do not sell cutting dies - we have them made for cutting services that we provide. After producing the die, cutting is about 25 cents to $1 per piece, depending on the material, part size, and quantity. While we can technically die-cut any number of pieces, it is best for quantities of at least 200 units. Please see our CAD FILE PREP GUIDE for more information on submitting a file for a die-cutting project.
