Die Cutting

This technique incorporates the use of sharp steel rules in a wooden die (form-chase) to cut the magnet. The steel rules are bent by mechanical jigs to form the shape that the magnet will be finally cut into.
Die cutting is a strong visual technique that will offer you 1000’s of design shape possibilities. A die cutting design can be straight, square, rectangular, and circular or any specially designed shape.

The cuts are made on a letterpress machine with the sharp edged steel, die cutting the magnet surface to form the shape.

The cost of a cutting die depends on the design of the shape and also how many shapes can economically be cut from the magnet sheet.
