Flat Bed Die Cutting

Whether your project is small volume or requires millions of parts, our 60-ton Preco flat bed die cutting press has the versatility to produce ultra-tight tolerance die cut parts using both sheet and rollstock, with quick tooling changeover.

The Basics of Flat Bed Die Cutting

Flat bed die cutting is a popular method of die cutting when cutting thicker materials that otherwise cannot be die cut with a rotary die cutting press. Our 60-ton flatbed press uses hydraulics and steel rule tooling to die cut various sheets or rolled goods. Additionally, with our in-line laminator, Pepin Manufacturing can laminate various rolled goods together during the die cutting process. Flat bed die cutting is efficient at manufacturing gaskets, o-rings, seals and abrasive parts.
