Rotary Die Design for Dimensional Accuracy Control, 1993 Corrugated Containers Conference Proceedings
James M. Smithwick--The ultimate goal of the die designer is to produce a die that will result in a quality diecut product with high diecutting productivity, long die life, minimal blanket wear, and low diecutting maintenance. For improved product quality, including dimensional accuracy, no longer think conventional dies. Think in terms of highly-engineered dies for the application. Subtle changes can make a major improvement. Materials and knowledge are essential for success. Across corrugation offers opportunities for the future.
