Silicone Rubber Die Cutting
When it comes to making outline designs for die-cutting machined tools are being used. In this case gasket and used with a hydraulic press to shear material out of large rolls of raw material. This type of raw material could be anything from silicone rubber to metallic materials. This type of process is just like the same as a hole puncher generally used for office provisions work. The press will house the die under the hydraulic press and while operating it will press itself into a material cutting to the die design that is suitable for your desired application.
These types of dies are made of steel rules, that have a long life probability, and they should be good for mass production. Die cutters could easily produce thousands of silicone rubber tubing, gaskets and seals per hour. It has a low tooling cost and is great for high-volume orders. Design tolerances can be anywhere from a tenth to the thousandth of an inch from the desired design.

Which is the Best Die Cutting Method:
There is a various die-cutting methods utilized to make die-cut gaskets. The best and effective manufacturing gaskets will depend on acceptances, quantities, and rubber materials being cut. Elastostar Rubber Corp will work with engineers to help design the best converting method, to make it cost-effective and improve handling.
The Applications Engineers at Elastostar Rubber Corp will help you evaluate the design for manufacturability and minimize manufacturing costs. Minor design changes will surely save you thousands of dollars in product costs for sure.
High Speed Die Cutting Gasket
Automated Die cutters are generally used for relatively less, thin die-cut gaskets that have med-level volume. Die-cut gasket ranges from 0.25 square or round to 12 square. The flatbed die cutters are capable of cutting with adhesive on the side. Fast cutting is when the die blade cuts through the gasket material and doesn’t cut the adhesive line.
CNC Gasket Die Cutting Unit
Elastostar Rubber Corp CNC cutting unit is naturally utilized to die cut mid to large-sized gaskets. With its enhancing software, constant feed belt, and faster hit rate, the CNC unit is used for larger rubber gaskets with mid-level volumes (200,000 – 4500,000 per year).
Die Cut Gasket Applications
Elastostar Rubber Corp focuses on die-cutting custom silicone rubber gaskets for many applications and industries. The following are some examples of custom die-cut gaskets and their uses:
- Die-cut adhesive LED gaskets
- Die-cut LCD bezel gaskets
- Die-cut battery pads
- Die-cut radome gaskets
- Die-cut eco-friendly gaskets
