KRUSE CONVERTING SERVICES
Flatbed Die Cutting
Flatbed die cutting services for converting foams, films, rubber, and specialty materials into custom shapes and components with precision and flexibility.
What Is Flatbed Die Cutting
Flatbed die cutting, also known as steel rule die cutting, stamping, or clicker press cutting, is a converting process that uses a flat press and custom steel rule dies to cut materials into precise shapes. This method is ideal for thicker materials, larger parts, and applications that require flexibility in design and lower production volumes.
- Ideal for thicker materials and foams
- Flexible for custom shapes and part sizes
- Great for short to medium production runs
