Die-cutting process improvement method

Die-cutting platemaking is an important process that directly affects the quality of the product. Drawing a die-cut version of the outline is commonly referred to as a drawing, which is a key part of the entire plate making process. It can be said that the production efficiency and precision of the die-cut version mainly depend on the pattern process. Because only the print is accurate, we can ensure that the plywood can be accurately cut.

The traditional drawing process is: First, the contour of the sample image to be die-cut is painted on thin white paper with carbon paper. If the sample is thin paper, it can be drawn directly, and then the outline of the die-cut pattern is painted with white latex. On the plywood, the saw blade is to be dried. This process is not only time consuming and time consuming, but also has poor manufacturing accuracy and is not ideal. In particular, some layouts with complicated layouts are more difficult to produce if the production technicians are not skilled in the operation, and they often result in scrapping and rework. Based on this situation, we decided to break the conventional practice and changed the traditional drawing process for some special editions with complicated layouts and difficult to draw. We used the computer-generated printing plate to draw the die-cut version of the outline drawing together, and then output directly. Pattern film, in this way, greatly improve the production efficiency and accuracy, and effectively ensure the accuracy of the die-cut version and the printing plate fitting. After the production of the die-cut contour pattern film is completed, when the paste is applied, the white latex is first applied on an appropriate part of the plywood, and after the glue is evenly scraped with a die-cutting knife, the front side of the film can be pasted on the plywood. , And then use a piece of cloth on the back of the film with a little force evenly leveled, so that the film calmly close to the plywood. After the glue is dried, when sawing the saw blade, the sawing can be done exactly as it is along the outline of the pattern on the film.

The use of computer graphics die-cut version of the contour pattern making die-cutting board, after process practice shows that this method is particularly applicable to the pattern of complex shaped version, its simple, fast and high-precision production effect, welcomed by the operator.
