Marbach cutting-die solidplatealu: Precise, lightweight and durable

Wednesday 24. July 2024 - Precision is key when die-cutting, especially with large formats. The larger the tool, the greater the impact of even the smallest dimensional tolerances. The tool weight is also a factor that should not be underestimated.

The globally operating diemaker Marbach has expanded its portfolio: the “solidplate” cutting- die with dimensionally stable dieboard is now also available in an aluminum version. And there is a good reason for this: this special dieboard not only impresses with its precision, but also with its low weight. The solidplate|alu is particularly advantageous for large machine formats.
Marbach industry manager Bernhard Reisser: “By using aluminum instead of steel, the solidplate|alu is very precise and thus ensures productivity and the best die-cutting results in packaging production. But that’s not all: it is also lightweight and therefore much easier to handle than a steel tool.”
The solidplate|alu is a dimensionally stable dieboard that is characterized by its good hygroscopic properties, an optimal register to the steel counter plate and its durability as well as a high number of reknifings. In addition, the ejector rubber on the solidplate|alu is particularly easy to replace.
The solidplate|alu is mainly used for food packaging, but also in the pharmaceutical and cosmetics industries.
