Production process

This is a raw material processing technology where a specified shape is cut out or stamped from a sheet using a special machine called a "platen press."

The process involves the use of special knives that create precise contours and lines. The machine operates by pressing a cutting knife onto the material under pressure.

Production is typically divided into stages:

Preparation: The chosen material is loaded onto a special table. This can be paper, cardboard, plastic, leather, and many others.
Knife setup: Depending on the desired shape, special knives are installed on the press to perform the stamping.
Pressing: The press is applied to the surface with the installed knives. This precisely and neatly cuts out the required shape.
Part extraction: The obtained blank is removed from the substrate and is immediately ready to use.

It's worth noting that this method allows for the highest precision and detailing, making it particularly valuable for creating unique design solutions.

Formats and thickness

One of the key advantages of die-cutting with a platen press is the ability to work with various material formats. The maximum knife format is 480 x 680 mm, allowing the creation of both small and large elements. Furthermore, the technology demonstrates high flexibility in choosing the thickness of the source, ranging from 0.3 to 3 mm. This enables working with diverse types of materials, including paper, cardboard, fabric, plastic, and many others. Virtually no printing, packaging, or decoration production can do without this marvelous machine.

The cost of such a sample is calculated individually and is slightly higher than for production batches due to technological aspects. The sample box is non-refundable and is not considered in serial production. Please, take this into account.

This period depends on the quantity of boxes, their size, complexity, additional work required, and other factors. We usually provide a more precise estimate of production time when discussing the details of your order. We are always ready to help and provide guidance if any difficulties arise with your order. It's important to remember that an order is considered approved only after all print layouts, box sizes are finalized, and a prepayment is made.

If you are paying for the order on behalf of a legal entity, you will need to provide us with the registration details of the future payer, and we will send you an invoice without VAT along with a shipping invoice.
