How to choose between roller die cutting machine and laser die cutting machine? (What are their respective advantages)

The roller die-cutter is a multi-station rotary die-cutting machine, often called a round knife, roller or circular knife die-cutter. It uses a roller in the form of a continuous rotation to perform die-cutting. It is one of the most efficient machines among die-cutting machines. It can be divided into 2, 3, 5, and 7 series of circular knife die-cutters. Circular knife die-cutting is achieved by squeezing the material between the blade and the roller. The roller is a cylindrical shaft with a smooth and hard surface. Circular knife processing is a die-cutting method that can complete the processing of multi-layer composite materials during the process.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Die Cutting Machine:

First, the circular die cutting machine is faster than the flat die cutting machine and is suitable for mass production, but sometimes it is difficult to control mass production and rapid production. In view of this, Jiangsu Furi has designed the circular die cutting machine, that is, each knife seat of the rolling cutter machine has servo motor control, transmission part and high-precision gear transmission roller. In the production process, the CCD software detection system is faster and more accurate than the flat die. If the product positioning accuracy is found to be inaccurate during the production process, the CPK value will be greatly reduced by making adjustments immediately, shortening the process flow and reducing losses during the process, thereby improving production efficiency and reducing labor costs and profits.

Application of laser die-cutting machine:

At present, laser die-cutting is mainly used in packaging, commercial glue, labels, greeting cards, cultural and creative products and other fields.

Most of the printing companies that used laser die-cutting in the early days were complex and personalized products, and they could not meet the final requirements by purchasing laser die-cutting equipment with manual platforms. Instead, they met the requirements by purchasing laser die-cutting equipment with manual platforms, but this kind of product has high labor costs and low production efficiency. Especially when large-area die-cutting is required, laser die-cutting needs to be processed multiple times at different positions of the same product.

Today, the application field of laser die-cutting has transitioned from the original small area and single laser to the large area and multi-laser with higher requirements. The perfect combination of digital technology and laser technology enables the laser die-cutting machine to be seamlessly connected with digital printing equipment, realizing the automation and digitization of the entire process of laser die-cutting. The current status of equipment application of laser die-cutting customers is as follows:

鈻?Small-format laser die-cutting products.

鈻?amp;nbsp;Single laser and flight mode laser processing are used in the field of drum labels. Suitable for processing with complex label contours, different shapes, and die-cutting of label surfaces.

鈻?amp;nbsp;Small laser cutting such as gift cards mostly adopts manual processing mode, and some customers use single laser intermittent platform processing. Suitable for cutting small cardboard and watermark products.

鈻?amp;nbsp;Generally, intermittent automatic platform or flying automatic platform is used, and paper is fed continuously, which greatly reduces the labor intensity and cost of manual labor.

鈻?amp;nbsp;Large-area laser die-cutting products

鈻?amp;nbsp;Multi-laser flying automatic platform is mostly used for laser die-cutting of large-area self-adhesive plywood and large-area packaging products. The whole process of paper feeding, creasing, laser die-cutting and paper collection is completed automatically. This laser die-cutting equipment has been purchased and used by many domestic packaging and printing companies.

鈻?amp;nbsp;From a technical point of view, laser die-cutting needs to improve core technology. The core technology mainly includes laser speed, spot size, laser control technology and laser software technology.

In terms of selection, the roller die-cutting machine can quickly die-cut the roll material due to its stable mechanical structure and stable control system. Due to the characteristics of the knife die, the cutting edge will be smoother. However, since the roller die-cutting machine uses mechanical stress cutting, the cutting roller is a material that is easily consumable, and it will become sudden after cutting for a certain period of time. Different rolls of film need to be matched with a set of roller systems, making the originally tense storage environment even more tense. The laser die-cutting machine can achieve multiple uses of one machine because it has high operability and high degree of freedom. It is very convenient to cut special-shaped products, with fast cutting speed and high precision. However, according to different processes, carbon edges are the best.

Based on the conclusion, we can draw the conclusion that both the roller die-cutting machine and the laser die-cutting machine are popular die-cutting equipment in contemporary times, and we need to choose a more suitable product according to the characteristics of our products.
