Frequently Asked Questions
HOW DOES DIELESS KNIFE CUTTING WORK?
Dieless knife cutter machines Do Not Need a custom built die. They are based on a CNC system with a programmable, oscillating knife blade cutter on a bed-type table. High powered LED lights project design right on to the cutting table. This allows operator to visualize and improve arrangement before any cutting begins. State-of-the-art software allows for automatic nesting of shapes within shapes, hence yield is increased and waste is reduced.
CAN DIELESS CUTTING MACHINES CUT COMPRESSED FIBER?
Yes, our dieless cutter system Can Cut Compressed Fiber. Available by in sheets or by the roll, in a variety of compositions including; Non-asbestos, PTFE Filled, Fiberglass, Aramid/NBR materials. Provided by well known brands such as; Durlon®, Garlock® Gylon® and Klinger®.
