Getting the Right Impression

Web fed platen and sheet fed platen diecutting systems have hardly been idle during this period of rotary development. new mechanical systems, coupled to advances into stiffer, lighter fabrication, and a logical reduction in the overall platen cutting area of the press are generating higher sustained production speeds with enhanced registration control and lower set-up waste. With their primary advantage being the relatively low cost of tooling, the inherent design flexibility, the widespread availability, and the fast turnaround of new tools, these systems of manufacturing are adapting to both an established high volume customer and to an increasingly short run, Just-In-Time, price-sensitive marketplace.
