Digital Die Cutting FAQs

What types of materials can you cut using your digital and die-cutting equipment?

We work with a wide variety of materials, primarily focusing on flexible materials such as various plastics (like nylon), films, foams, fabrics, and adhesive-backed materials. For specific material inquiries, we recommend contacting us to verify compatibility with your application.

I need a custom shape cut from a specific fabric. What are the minimum order quantities (MOQs) for a die-cutting project?

We pride ourselves on flexibility. Whether you need a single prototype for testing or a high-volume production run, we can accommodate your request. We recommend starting with a prototype to approve the design before moving to full-scale manufacturing.

My project requires a component that has an adhesive backing. Can you laminate materials during the cutting process?

Yes. We can integrate multiple processes, including laminating materials together and applying pressure-sensitive adhesives, during the fabrication stage. This allows us to deliver a finished component ready for your assembly line, saving you time and labor.
