Businesses are continually looking for ways to identify cost savings and implement energy efficient solutions. Screen printing companies specializing in flexible membrane switches (flex circuits) are no different in their approach to screen printing and die cutting their stable of products. As capital expenditures begin to loosen, equipment manufacturers are hard at work to design […]
What does your die cutting department look like? Do you have multiple flat bed presses “chunking” along making parts for your mobile phone, automotive part or gasket customers? Are rotary die cutting units rolling along at 450 feet per minute to produce labels? Over the past several years converting departments have been forced to change […]
Digital printing has been addressing the need for shorter runs and specialty products for the past several years. As a result, converting equipment manufacturers saw an opportunity to move into the digital age by perfecting laser die cutting through software and hardware advancements. How can this help your company? Let’s take a look. Beam Delivery For all […]
Laser Die Cutting Southern Coating Style— The Real Story Behind Hybrid Roll/Sheet-Fed Laser Cutters By Mike Bacon, VP, Spartanics It wasn’t that long ago when workers in Little Rock Arkansas’ Southern Coating would sit there for hours on end, exacto knives in hand, pulling the webbing out of “o”s, “a”s, “e”s and similar letters needing […]
Laser cutting, a.k.a. digital die cutting, uses high-powered lasers to vaporize materials in the lasers’ beam path. The powering on and off of the laser beam and the way in which the beam path is directed towards the substrate effects the specific cuts that the artwork requires. Because cut away parts are vaporized the hand […]
There are reasons why digital printers should take a new look at laser cutting technology. Recent technological advances combined with the growing availability of contract manufacturing services offered by manufacturers of laser cutting equipment make a range of new products possible. First, for those not familiar with laser cutting technology, a brief breakdown on how it works. Lasers cut by melting […]
Label converters that last took a look at laser cutting machines as recently as early 2008 are likely mistaken about what is and is not possible with laser cutting technology. The sophistication of scan head control software, the quality of the laser scan heads that can be purchased at a particular price point, and the systems integration of laser cutting machine […]
1. Verlassen Sie sich nicht auf Informationen die älter als 1 Jahr sind Gerade in der letzten Zeit sind große Entwicklungssprünge beim Laserschneiden mit GALVO-SYSTEMEN erzielt worden. Große Fortschritte wurden nicht nur bei den Hardwarekomponenten erzielt, sondern insbesondere auch in der Software, welche das Laserschneiden steuert und kontrolliert. 2. Was zeichnet eine gute Laserschneidmaschine aus […]
Technischer Ratgeber: Anwendung moderner Laser-Schneid-Technologie für die Anforderungen von heute Von Markus Klemm, Software Entwicklungs-Ingenieur, Spartanics Laserschneiden, ist digitales Schneiden (Stanzen) und erfordert kraftvolle Laser um die Materialien innerhalb des Laserstrahls zu verdampfen. Somit fällt kein Schnittabfall an, wie es beim konventionellen Schneiden/Stanzen üblich ist. Das Ein- und Ausschalten, sowie das Führen des Laserstrahls ermöglichen […]
