Digital cutting and die cutting
Automated precision cutting for orthopaedic textile and technical materials without the need for dies
What it is
Digital cutting is a high-precision machining system that allows textiles, foams, laminates and other technical materials to be cut directly from digital designs, without the need to manufacture metal dies.
This technology offers great flexibility for developing new products, facilitates prototyping and short production runs, enables automatic size grading and optimises the layout of individual pieces to maximise material utilisation and reduce waste.
For higher-volume applications or when the process requires it, we also have die-cutting presses and metal dies, selecting the most efficient cutting technology for each project from a technical, production and economic perspective.
Benefits
- Elimination of costs and lead times associated with metal dies.
- High precision and repeatability across all cut pieces.
- Digital size grading and rapid design modifications.
- Simultaneous cutting of multiple layers to increase productivity.
- Automatic material optimisation and reduced waste.
- Cleaner cuts and higher-quality finishes.
- More flexible and efficient production, adaptable to short or long production runs.
- Reduced setup times and manufacturing changeover times.
Applications
- Cutting textile components for orthoses and orthopaedic supports.
- Components for knee supports, ankle supports and support belts.
- Multilayer cutting of technical textiles and foams.
- Production of semi-finished components for assembly.
- Development of prototypes and new product collections.
- Custom manufacturing and special production runs.
